We stayed here for our son’s college graduation from Penn State. It was super easy to commute to and from State College (about an 18 minute drive) and the location in Bellafonte is perfect- easy walk into town, restaurants, and the beautiful park close by. the property itself is in a big old Victorian building located on the upper floor. we were surprised at how spacious it was: two large bedrooms and a large den/ sitting room in addition to the large eat in kitchen and entry. the owner includes so many interesting and and fun retro touches all over the property which added to the allure of the place. we also appreciated the owners attention to details like stocking the kitchen with many different coffees, creamers, snacks, drinks and even official Creamery ice cream! the bathroom included plenty of towels, very good shampoo and conditioner and the bedrooms included plenty of extra pillows and blankets. Finally, the owner made the whole process very easy with regular communication, easy check in process and lots of good advice for activities and dining. The whole stay was very comfortable and enjoyable. we woujd highly recommend and would stay again.

Another Great Stay
This is our 3rd time visiting, and it didn't disappoint. The location, the accommodations, and the communication were all above expectations. The hosts are so responsive and really want their guests to enjoy their stay.

We stayed here after attending a concert at PSU. This is our second time staying. The owner was extremely attentive. The place was great. It was clean and the location is great. Will be returning in April!

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!

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.

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 Getaway in Bellefonte
A fun, convenient location for our stay. Bob was a wonderful host who responded quickly and graciously to all of our questions. And our group of five women had a lot of questions!

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. 👍👍👍

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

Retro Get Away
We had a very nice stay at this apartment. It is obvious that the hosts have worked to make the home special, especially for those who want to enjoy a blast in the past! It was up two flights of stairs which was hard to maneuver with luggage but once inside, very nice! The owner called to see if we wanted anything in the fridge before we came which was a nice touch.
