Это описание на двух языках: английском и русском.
We are a family of two people Husband/Wife. I am originally from India and my wife is from Russia. I speak English and Hindi and my wife speaks Russian and English. We live in a 4 bed rooms house in the City of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania USA. Philadelphia is also called "city of brotherly love".
We live in a quiet and very safe neighborhood, our house is located in Northeast section of Philadelphia, near a public park named Penny Creak Park. It is a beautiful wooded park with a creak running in the middle of the park. People hike and bike in the park and spend leisure time in summer, in the cool shadows of the trees near the creek.
We have lived in this neighborhood for a long time, people here are friendly. Our neighbors are very nice and friendly people.
Our house is not very old but well built, we have beautiful flower garden in the front of the house and our enclosed backyard is an extra plus for relaxing in the afternoon and late evening. You can enjoy a quiet and comfortable sofa and chairs under an awning and grass lawn. And above all if you like you are welcome to use our Barbecue Grill. We also have a vegetable garden in the backyard where we grow tomatoes, cucumber, zuccuni and okra.
Our home is better than a hotel, cheaper than a motel and cleaner than a hostel. We are a retired very friendly couple, I hope you will surely enjoy your stay with us.
Additional Info:

From the airport or down town to our house, you can use Uber Car services.

Мы семья из двух человек Муж / Жена. Я родом из Индии, а моя жена из России. Я говорю на английском и хинди, а моя жена говорит по-русски и по-английски. Мы живем в доме с 4-мя спальнями в городе Филадельфия, штат Пенсильвания, США. Филадельфию также называют «городом братской любви».
Мы живем в тихом и очень безопасном районе, наш дом расположен в северо-восточной части Филадельфии, недалеко от общественного парка имени Пенни-Крик-Парк. Это красивый лесистый парк со скрипом, бегущим посреди парка. Люди гуляют и катаются на велосипедах в парке и проводят досуг летом, в прохладных тенях деревьев возле ручья.
Мы жили в этом районе долгое время, люди здесь дружелюбные. Наши соседи очень приятные и дружелюбные люди.
Наш дом не очень старый, но хорошо сложен, у нас есть красивый цветник в передней части дома, и наш закрытый двор является дополнительным плюсом для отдыха днем и поздним вечером. Вы можете наслаждаться тихим и удобным диваном и стульями под навесом и лужайкой для травы. И, прежде всего, если вам нравится, вы можете использовать наш гриль-барбекю. У нас также есть огород на заднем дворе, где мы выращиваем помидоры, огурцы, зуккуни и бамии.
Наш дом лучше, чем гостиница, дешевле, чем мотель и чище, чем общежитие. Мы пенсионеры, очень дружелюбные пары, я надеюсь, вам понравится ваше пребывание у нас.
Дополнительная информация:
Если вы долгое время гость, например, на год или больше и хотите готовить себе еду, вы можете использовать нашу кухню. Для долгосрочного проживания цены снижены на 10% до 15% в зависимости от продолжительности вашего пребывания.

Чай, кофе и печенье по утрам включены в стоимость.

It was like coming home, from the first moment one we felt welcomed. When ever we had questions or needed help, they had time. They were also answering all our questions about the city. We had a great stay, thanks to them.
