my favorite place to stay in Philly
5-night trip

8/10

Positive: -Staff was super friendly and helpful. A+ for all of them. -Location was fantastic. -Rooms were very clean. Negative: -A lot of rooms don't have blackout blinds so they're bright. They offered to move us without us asking so that goes on the positive list. They moved us to a room they said was an upgrade but we lost our huge kitchen, seating and big counter space. Felt very much like a downgrade but it was still worth it for the blinds, so we didn't complain. -our bathroom toilet was broken. Maintenance supposedly fixed it but it wasn't. It needed the internal flapper replaced. My husband had to fix it after every time we flushed. For three days.... -Bathrooms TINY. I mean seriously small. Also, no surface room to set things down. -Bathroom sinks too small so they splash water all over, flooding the miniscule shelf they have. We would not stay there again but if clean rooms and great staff is all you need to be happy this hotel will fulfill your requirements.
