Quiet relaxing stay

We two enjoyed the large rooms and quiet space. Felt very safe in house and neighborhood. Liked the off street parking. Easy walk to the waterfront.

We found the property to be charming and appreciated all the historical information provided. It was a special occasion for us and our stay in The Haven will be part of our memory of the time together before Fariha became a U.S. citizen. I think we may be entailed to a rebate on our damage deposit, but am not sure. If so, please post the reimbursement to our American Express card.

We had a really lovely time in the apartment! It is truly gorgeous inside, and the whole neighborhood is extremely charming. Food and entertainment was walkable. Lisa was not just responsive, but preemptive with information the day of our arrival. If we find ourselves back in Norfolk, this is where we'll stay!

Our stay while visiting our daughter was perfect. The apartment is absolutely gorgeous and centrally located to where we needed to be. I love that there was a washer and dryer so when we got home it was easy to just unpack. Hosts were informative and responded quickly. I would highly recommend this place. Thank you so much.

Modern Comfort

It is spacious and comfortable. You need to be able to climb steps with your baggage but it is really nice once you are there,I would be pleased to return.

Work Trip

We visited Norfolk for a short work trip and rented this historic apartment instead. It was more spacious and beautiful than I thought from the pictures. Access was very easy and communication with Lisa was super accommodating. If you get a chance to stay, do! You won’t regret it. We already discussed staying there again in the Spring. Thank you for the easy and wonderful stay!

Relaxing visit to Norfolk

We were initially slightly wary of booking this properly due to the lack of reviews on VRBO, but I am so glad that we took the chance! If you enjoy historic properties, I highly recommend checking this one out. It's been renovated, but still has all of the charm you would expect from a historic home. The neighborhood is quiet, with cute cobblestone streets, and there is a view of the water from the bay window in the main bedroom. It's within easy walking distance of several restaurants and museums, and for those not minding a slightly further walk, the waterfront district is close by as well. Lisa was easy to contact when needed, and responded very quickly whenever we reached out. The beds and pillows were extremely comfortable, and the towels were probably the softest we've ever used! We had a restful stay, and would certainly stay here again if in the area, and recommend it to anyone that would enjoy staying in a historic neighborhood.

This is our favorite place to stay when we visit Norfolk, VA. We love old houses with character, and this fits the bill. It's in the historical section of town near things to do.
