Spacious , comfortable accommodations in downtown Bellefonte
I loved the 3rd floor flat; it was truly a home away from home. It was very clean and quiet with comfy beds; plus convenient access to Bellefonte restaurants and interesting little shops. The apartment was full of games and fun items which would be delightful for families with children and/or teens. I could not think of a better place to occupy kids plus it is a block from a beautiful park.

Home away from home
The condo was very spacious and comfortable. Loved the kitchen with its Keurig plus it was nicely stocked with supplies such as olive oil, spices and snacks. I stayed there with my carpenter son who is preparing his home 2.5 miles down the road for sale. It was well worth the expense to have a nice place in which to relax. Thanks, Bob and Jess, for such nice accommodations and service.

Fun, clean place, walkable to everything
We enjoyed our stay and my kids loved all the games! I also liked the separate TV area so after kids went to bed we could enjoy some Nintendo games. Lots of cool details.

Nice comfortable stay for group of friends
We are a group of friends that travel to the State College area annually for a football game. We chose this location because it’s fairly close to the stadium (about 15 minutes). Also because it is in a small town as opposed to the places we’ve been staying which are more remote. The apartment is in an old building as described but the unit itself has been entirely renovated. There was plenty of room for 6 of us to stay comfortably. It was very clean, the kitchen was fully equipped, though we mainly ate at restaurants. Decorations were quite remarkable - I typically don’t really notice or even care personally, but I really enjoyed seeing all the items, especially all the games and other memorabilia from my youth! I would definitely return in the future!

Cute Retro Apartment
Bob's awesome retro apartment was the perfect spot for our quick getaway to Happy Valley. All of us (ages 8 through 70) loved the multitude of games, cool decorations, and extremely comfortable beds. The apartment was well stocked with everything we needed and the responsiveness of the host was fantastic. We really enjoyed the location as it gave us the opportunity to walk just down the street to a cute cafe and beautiful park. We would definitely consider staying here again!

Back to the future…
Cool place to stay as it brought me back to my youth with so many memorabilia around the apartment. Great location to everything you need in Bellefonte, basically it is in the center of town. Apartment was clean and comfortable. Will return next year.

Great stay
Very old apartment but neatly renovated. The kids got excited the moment they entered the unit. Nice neighbor. The only thing was that sometimes there was no parking available in the back, but I wouldn’t decrease the evaluation just for that. Recommend the place.

Perfect Overnighter
We had tickets to a wrestling match at PSU and didn’t want to travel at night (3hour trip). It was a perfect distance and easy ride to PSU. My son invited friends, so it was perfect where they had their own privacy and mine as well. It is very roomy and was very comfortable for the four of us. I loved the decor (brought me back to my childhood) and the communication was excellent. Would highly recommend for those who are looking for a reasonably priced place

Best rental ever!!!
When I booked this rental I thought the apartment could never live up to the expectations. Well, it actually exceeded our expectations! It is such a unique place that oozes with sentimentality for childhood days gone by. So many wonderful discoveries in each room! My best friend and I played Trouble, Kerplunk and best of all, Ms. Pacman! The host was so wonderful and pleasant. I highly recommend this rental. It is a joy and I can only hope I am able to get back there someday. 👍👍👍
