Contemporary hotel in a great location
Nice hotel in a great area, close to the city centre, with lots of cafes, bars and restaurants nearby to choose from. The room was modern, quite sparsely furnished but had everything I needed and was very comfortable. The staff were both friendly and efficient. I'd happily stay again.

Quick overnight - very clean, comfy bed and pillows, super friendly front desk staff! Great location. The walls are a little thin so bring earplugs if you’re a light sleeper. I’d definitely stay again!

Hotel was very okay. Facilities were basic.
Room had a sliding transparent door between the toilet and bedroom, which offers little privacy.
Daily housekeeping. Water/ice machine were located only on the basement floor, which is inconvenient

Great staff. Tiny unimpressive room.
The staff was great! Everyone was friendly and very helpful. The room was so small that it felt claustrophobic. No place to sit other than the bed and no lobby to relax in.

Affordable, great hotel in Philadelphia
Excellent, cozy, hotel at an affordable price right in the heart of Center City, Philadelphia.
Nice to have a restaurant, coffee shop, and a bar right on premises.
Friendly, helpful staff, noon checkout. I’d stay there again.
