Apartment was clean, comfortable and we had everything we needed for our brief, one-night stay. John, our host, offered several suggestions on places to go and things to see and do. He was spot on with his recommendations as we took him up on a few of his suggestions.

My adult sisters and I left at 9 pm. We just couldn't stay. Just after we got to the unit, a man walked in through the emergency exit door with no knocking or anything, throughe the center on the unit and out the main door. Less than 10 minutes later, a man let himself in the front door of the unit without knocking. I called out, "this is not ok!" and he apologized and left.When we tried to go to bed, then slats that supported the mattress in one room kept falling down.We were afraid to sleep there because you can't secure the doors from the inside and we weren't sure the one bed was stable. I deserve a refund.

Adorable decor, comfortable beds, nice bathroom all with period fun references. Neighborhood walking distance to all historic parks and Seneca Falls sites. Owner very helpful and kind. They are doing a lot of work on the property which did not interfere with us at all, but it will be exciting to see what more they do with this really cool property.

This is a cute place right in the heart of Seneca Falls. Walking around town is super easy and it’s also great access to the Finger Lakes. The steps up are a little steep and my husband (who is 6’4”) had to watch his head on the steps. This place is beautiful even under construction - I can’t imagine how gorgeous it will be when it’s done!

Great place, great style This was the cutest, most well decorated VRBO we have ever stayed in. Super clean. GREAT location. As fellow restorers of an old house, I would also like to say that they are doing a great job with their restoration.

Very fun place We loved the historical apartment and enjoyed that it was close to the water and downtown area. The owners visited with us when we got there and gave us some recommendations of what to see. They also told us about the history of the house and the town.

This place is an adventure. John is doing a fantastic job of restoring the charm that at one time characterized this building. But there is still a lot of work going on and you have recognize that this a work in progress. Overall the apartment was spacious and suitably furnished, Communication was good and John promptly addressed any issue that arose. Also be mindful that access to some of the apartments involves climbing one or two staircases.
