Great stay!

This location is ideal if you are going to Hartford Hospital or the state offices on Hudson. Starbucks and Au Bon Pain at hospital but nothing else really walking distance. The sound of upstairs apartment walking was quite loud but I was going to bed at 10pm. This apartment was very clean (except the bedroom carpets which need replaced!) and was fine for a no frills place to sleep. Do not expect any little "extras" like water, snacks, flowers, etc. Overall, I would probably stay again because it was clean and the location was perfect for me.

Carmen is SO nice! We didn't know how to get the key from a 'safe-box' and she came from her home to help us in the night! She's very kind person and if I have another chance to come to Hartford, I'll definitely choose this place!

Carmen's place was a perfect getaway for Hartford. I loved how quiet the neighborhood was and how comfortable the bed was. I got in at about 9 pm after almost 9 hours of driving and Carmen was very VERY patient with me and even came out to make sure I knew where to park. I was able get to the wedding I was attending, and back with no problems. I HIGHLY recommend her place. The neighborhood is perfectly safe and friendly so I am not sure what other reviewers meant by neighborhood is rough. Everything in the place is clean and it is very spacious. Location is great and it takes no more than 20 min to get into downtown Hartford by walking.

The host canceled this reservation the day before arrival. This is an automated posting.

This space was very spacious and very comfortable. Everything was great, but would have liked a little more furniture to sit on in the living room.

Carmen's place is excellent. It's located close to food outlets and other amenities. The place is clean and huge. Comfortable for 3 people.

Nice, small, quiet, historic neighborhood. We felt like locals. It was easy to get around, we felt safe and walked most of the time. Apt was comfortabke, nice and clean. We will definitely stay here again!

Cool host. Room was clean and well prepared. Host made self available for communication and followed up to ensure satisfaction

I stayed at Robert's for a few days, and he is the most welcoming and attentive host ever! His place is close to the bus stop and downtown. The room is cozy, the apt clean, and he and his roomies invite you to feel at home. I would recommend staying with him anytime.

Close to downtown. Bed was comfortable. Robert was responsive.

Mark's communication was perfect! The apartment was spacious and well equipped. Mark's house book was very clear and helpful. We took him up on two of his suggestions for meals and were quite happy! My daughter and I were visiting Wesleyan for a college tour. Mark's apartment was the perfect base and very walkable both to the University and to town. I hope that we will need to visit often.

Great location with amenities for sleeping 3-4. Mark was a great communicator regarding check-in and house rules. He was flexible on our check-out time as our family was leaving town at different times. Having a washer / dryer was a bonus! Enjoyed our stay in Middletown and looking forward to our next visit.

Mark is a great host! He responded to all our questions and requests in a timely and informative manner. The apartment is just as it appears in the pictures-- clean, spacious, and orderly. It is a few blocks from Main Street and a few blocks from the Wesleyan campus, making it an ideal spot for anyone visiting Wesleyan. We spent a week in the apartment and were extremely comfortable. It is now my first choice of places to stay when visiting Middletown.

My daughter and I stayed at Mark's place the night before a tour at Wesleyan. It was the last in a long series of single hotel stops, and was the perfect way to end our trip. We each had our own bedroom, and we were able to make a leisurely breakfast for ourselves while we got ready for the day. Mark's instructions were clear and he was really responsive and friendly in all of our messages, even though we never had the chance to meet. His apartment has all of the necessities, down to USB chargers next to each bed. And we really appreciated the variety of breakfast makings and little snacks! Wesleyan is a short 1-2 block walk, in a quiet, safe neighborhood. Highly recommend!

Mark was extremely accommodating and helpful

I spent a long weekend in Middletown with my wife and a friend. We are Wesleyan alums who were there to celebrate our team's induction into the athletic hall of fame. Mark's apartment was absolutely perfect - very comfortable for three people, clean, and within easy walking distance of campus and Main Street. His wide selection of DVDs came in handy one rainy evening when we were too cold and tired from walking around campus and cheering on the teams to motivate to do anything else! Mark was very responsive, both when I booked the apartment months in advance and when I contacted him the week of the trip. The arrival time was totally flexible and everything was as promised. I would definitely stay there again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay during a visit to Wesleyan.

This was my first airbnb booking, and it was great. Mark's place is convenient, nicely-furnished and thoughtfully-stocked with essentials, and a lot of extras. Communication was clear, and there were detailed instructions for everything, which made our stay so easy. A wonderful place to stay, and we hope to book it again for our next visit.

The apartment is truly lovely and carefully designed and equipped to make the stay comfortable and enjoyable.

My stay as Max's place was excellent! The apartment was clean and very comfortable, and Max was a welcoming host. Although I did not get an opportunity to meet him, he provided very clear directions on check-in/check-out procedures and remained available during my stay for anything I may have needed.

Stay here! Max was the model airbnb host. Even before I arrived, Max contacted me to check in on my arrival time and what he could do to help me get the most out of my experience in Hartford. Super nice guy. He was not home when I arrived but his instructions for getting into the apartment were spot on, super easy. Max helped direct me to spots in Hartford he thought I'd like for food, nightlife, etc. He also set me up with a stellar road bike to rock around town as well. This was a huge bonus for me personally. The apartment is very impressive, modern, and welcoming. Room is very spacious, clean, comfy. Was exactly like the pics...better in person I thought. Quiet as well, I took a nap in the middle of the day. The neighborhood is super cool. I loved it. I felt safe and I loved the diversity of area. Great experience, highly recommend.

Max and the place are great.

Max was a wonderful host. He was very helpful and informed us of great places to eat in West Hartford. The apartment has a fantastic set up. I'd recommend this place to everyone.

All was as expected and Max was available if needed. He was most accommodating by making up the futon so we could have our own beds! Thanks, Max!

Max was a great host. He provided excellent instructions regarding our arrival and we settled into his spotless and beautifully appointed noted apartment with ease. The property is in a very convenient part of Hartford and served as a great base for our visit. We met Max briefly and quickly warmed to him - he's a brilliant host and anyone staying there can be sure that they'll be made. Dry welcome.

This place is wonderful and homey, exactly as advertised. It is a block away from many amenities; restaurants, bars, cvs etc... And it also doesn't hurt that it is not far from Mark Twain house :-) Max is a great host, he always stayed in contact. I recommend this place.

My husband and I had a great stay at Max's place. The apartment was clean and very comfortable. There was everything we needed to feel at home. We enjoyed walking to the local restaurants and cafes that were near the apartment. I highly recommend staying here!

This place is awesome! Hosts were helpful and attentive, went out of their way to ensure that my stay was comfortable. They provided excellent recommendations and were attentive and responsive in the time before my stay. Quiet, attractive, well-thought-out space. I think if anyone is looking to stay in Hartford this might be one of the best places they could find. I was very pleased with my stay and would stay here again.

A great spot! A very cool and clean place that is right in Hartford. The hosts are extremely kind and struck the perfect balance between being there, but also allowing us to have our own space. If in need of a nice spot while in Hartford, this is a great option!

Jane checked in with me a couple weeks prior to decide on which property would best meet my needs. The place was all set up. Jane sent me travel directions and was waiting for me when I arrived. The home is right in the center of downtown close to everything. It's a beautiful brownstone place on an impressive block. My travel wardrobe was more on the Arizona side than the Connecticut side. Nancy let me borrow her rainjacket which kept my walking about town dry and warm. without it, my travels would have been very limited. When I slipped and my one sweatshirt was covered in dirt, she was accommodating, letting me use her washing machine to get a fresh start on the rest of my stay in New England. Nancy and Bob were great hosts and their lower unit had everything I needed and a few extras! I much appreciated their hospitality and discussing life's struggles and people who are making a difference in their community! Like them!

This is a GORGEOUS historic home, complete with the sweetest dog named Rosie! The space downstairs is massive and beautiful with its own back entrance, study, bedroom, and half bath. The shower is upstairs and shared but there were no issues sharing. The bed was very notably comfortable as well! Jane and her family are a truly wonderful, amazing, loving family. This happens to be Jane's parent's home, as she manages both her home and theirs on airbnb, but they live within a minute walk if each other and visit each other daily. I stayed with Jane and her family two nights at their residence, then needed a third night last minute, Jane and her family were very accommodating of my needs and we're able to host me here the third night. When in Hartford and needing lodging, contact Jane and her family first, either place you stay, you won't regret it!

What a beautiful apartment, perhaps the most immaculately presented listing we've stayed at in our time with Airbnb. The location is central and we were able to get a street park without too much worry. Hosts were easy to communicate with and generous with their home. Highly recommended as a base to explore Connecticut/New England.

This historic centrally located private apartment was the perfect place to be for a weekend in Hartford. I felt perfectly safe walking the city by myself one day and enjoyed covering even more ground with my husband the next. It was convenient to some great restaurants ( we particularly liked Sutra, an Asian Fusion place just a few doors down), and our hosts had wonderful suggestions for places to visit. The downstairs apartment was quiet, clean and homey with yogurt in the little fridge and coffee available for us to make. Perfect holiday!

The place is walking distance to everything! The room is cozy and well decorated. We do enjoy ourselves in this brownstone house. The host walked through us of everything before we checked in, and the tips he gave are really helpful.

The place was wonderful and in a great location, close to restaurants and downtown. The host was very nice, even parking my car when he saw how terrible I was at it. Snacks in the refrigerator, which is always nice. And best of all was their sweet dog. :) I'd recommend to anyone.

Host is very responsive & nice. The apartment is super clean, well furnished & quiet. The location is nice, easily accessible & nice to walk around. Would definitely stay again & recommend others to stay here.

Second time stay in four months, pleasantly surprised to see new features, including toaster oven. We like this sooo much better than a hotel- Michael is helpful and stays in touch throughout.

The host gave clear instructions about how to get into the apartment. His neighbors were helpful as well. Our rental car was malfunctioning and the alarm going off and one neighbor volunteered to report to us if that happened, and he did let us know. The neighborhood seemed safe and had convenient facilities nearby. Parking seemed secure and was convenient.

Michael was very easy to communicate with and everything was as described! Would stay again for sure.

Our stay was great! The apartment was very clean and nicely decorated. We were able to walk to the Mark Twain and Harriet Beecher Stowe houses. There were also some nice restaurants within walking distance. We also easily found free parking near by as we had three cars. I would highly recommend staying here!

Michael was a wonderful host. He communicated with us prior to our arrival and answered any questions we had during the stay. This apartment is a short drive from down town West Hartford where there are wonderful restaurants and interesting shops. The apartment has all the essentials you will need and a cozy living room where you can relax. We definitely had a positive stay here and would come back again.

Michael's place was a pleasant spot to stay at for a short visit to the Hartford area. Enjoyed the comfy furniture and having coffee on the balcony in the morning. Would recommend staying there.

If you're visiting the Mark Twain House & Museum, this listing is extremely convenient to that. The bed is super comfortable! Be aware that this is a 4th floor walk-up in an older part of town. I never felt unsafe during my stay, but did have to park pretty far down the street from the building a couple of times.

Victor was an extremely nice host and easy to communicate with. The space is basic as shown in the pictures. Although the room got a little cold, Victor had provided an extra blanket. A decent place for this price!

2nd stay with Victor was just as great!

Victor is a very friendly and hospitable host willing to put himself out of his way to provide whatever you need. His knowledge of the area was great and he provides great suggestions regarding restaurants, events, night life, etc. This is definitely a great value and I will be looking up Victor again when I return to Hartford.

Clean and as advertised! Victor goes out of his way to accommodate

Victor was so friendly and very easy to get ahold of if I needed anything! Room was very clean and cozy!

I enjoyed the stay there. He was overly helpful

AVOID VICTOR AT ALL COSTS!!! I was on my way to spend a night at his place and he requested that I let him know when I was 30 minutes away, so I let him know 30 minutes in advance. He then confirmed that he'd received my message but went completely missing once I'd arrived!! I was left standing in the freezing cold (27 degrees Fahrenheit) for over 20 minutes while desperately trying to reach him via text/phone/AirBnB. I finally gave up, called an Uber to take me to the nearest hotel (Red Roof Inn) and ended up going to bed exhausted and infuriated. Had my first day at work the next morning, and woke up with ZERO correspondence from Victor a full 12 hours later. This joke of a man was completely unresponsive and needs to be removed from Airbnb. This is a professional site, used and operated by professionals. Victor is a child. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Victor is a really nice guy -- super communicative and friendly!
