Mayor Sponsored and Inspired Block Fresh & Clean 1

Our Mayor of Philadelphia once resided near the block and has sponsored this block to keep it nice and neat. Our family has been local to Philadelphia for 30 years and we have renovated the entire building to feel refreshing and spacious while still being affordable. We personally make sure all sheets and towels are washed and clean with sanitizing spray throughout the whole unit after every stay. Space is spotless and we expect nothing less. It is probably cleaner than your own house lol!

The living room showcases a gray sofa accompanied by a decorative pillow and a small plant. A coffee table sits at the center, displaying books and a small vase with flowers. Natural light enters through the window, illuminating a round area rug on the floor.
