I had a wonderful stay at Rachel’s place! The space was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. Rachel was warm, responsive, and made everything super easy from check-in to check-out. The neighborhood is quiet and safe, with great access to everything I needed during my trip. I felt completely comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

What a gem of an Airbnb in Salem. This is a great place for a couple or two friends to stay while visiting Salem. It is a 5 minute walk to the witch house and downtown. It is located in the historic McIntire district. You can check out all of the Federalist homes while walking into town either on Essex st., Federal st. or Chestnut st. The exterior has a private outdoor space with a private entrance. The interior is quiet, private, and extremely clean with all the amenities you will need. There is a large closet in the bedroom with a luggage rack. The bed is comfy! There is ample parking and a convenience store and pizza shop directly across the street. The host, Rachel, responded within minutes to any questions I had. The specific instructions/guide was very helpful. I honestly have nothing negative to say about my stay. Do not think twice about booking this for your trip to Salem!

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay! The check in process was smooth and flexible. The space was comfortable and clean. It was also located in a really good area making most of Salem downtown area very walkable. Rachel was extremely welcoming and helpful. Definitely would stay here again when I visit Salem!

A massive thank you to Rachel for hosting us! The space was exactly as described, clean & felt like a home away from home. Located off Essex street, one of the main roads into the heart of Salem, everything was in walking distance & made our stay so enjoyable. Rachel was super responsive & sent local recommendations which was great. We'd absolutely stay again!

Our stay at Rachel’s place in Salem was truly exceptional. The accommodation was beautiful, clean, and very comfortable — the perfect home base to explore the city. The location was excellent, close to the main attractions yet quiet to relax at the end of the day. Rachel was a wonderful host: welcoming, responsive, and thoughtful throughout our stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we would definitely stay here again on our next visit to Salem.

We stayed at Rachel’s place for our Honeymoon and it was perfect! We stayed in Salem for the week and the stay had so much New England charm and was within walking distance of all of the fun madness of Salem in October! We had a fall honeymoon right out of a movie! The stay was easy to find, clean, and a perfect spot to stay after days filled with fun! Would recommend to anyone visiting Salem and would definitely stay again!

This was a wonderful place to stay!!! It really made our Salem experience so seamless, convenient and beautiful. The neighborhood is gorgeous and the apartment itself was spotless. We had such a wonderful time. I would come back every year! Rachel was also a super helpful and responsive host!!! Thank you for such an amazing experience.

The place was beautiful and very easy to find. The main draw was the close proximity to downtown which was around a 12 minute walk. The house is very quiet which is nice, but there were neighbors upstairs who tended to stomp and talk very loudly which was easy to hear even when you didn’t want to. Other than that, it was amazing and would definitely go back.

We're just a 15 minute walk to the Salem train station that is a 40 min ride into Boston. There are also plenty of Uber/Lyft drivers in town that can take you wherever you need to go.
