great hotel, little far from the city

far from the center of philadelphia (about 15 minutes by cab) but right next to the airport. some good dining options if you have a car. hotel itself is rather nice, rooms are good, but not much of a view. staff was very friendly.

Enjoyed our stay

Clean rooms, comfortable beds, instant hot water in shower, two sinks,coffee maker,etc. that made it a comfortable two night stay in Phlly for me and a friend. Also free parking in a large parking lot was a bonus, not offered at some hotels around the airport.

Five days of dirty room.

Maid service was terrible, floor rug by bathroom was wet for three days, coffee pot wasn't cleaned for three out of five days, one day room wasn't cleaned at all even though we were out of room by noon. Had to go to front desk to get fresh towels. Ice bucket was only cleaned once. Hallway outside non-smoking rooms reaked of smoke.

Not so "newly renovated" ?

Disappointing "old" feeling about the rooms/floor I was in (2nd floor). Not "newly renovated" as the hotel claims. Flying through PHL again and needing an overnight crash, I'd pick another hotel.

Ramada Philadelphia Airport

There were hanging cobwebs in several places around the room. When showering, the tub didn't drain so you stood in 4 inches of water. The bedding was stained on one bed. Each double bed had a yellow comforter that was from the 1970's, with corners that were frayed. We ate at the sports bar...our only meal that day and my son-in-law ended up with food poisoning that night...we think it was either the salad dressing or chicken strips he ate. If there are remodeled/updated rooms at this Ramada Inn, we were not booked into one of them. While the location is convenient to Philadelphia International Airport, it does not justify the cost of this hotel and certainly not for the room we had. If you are only looking for a bed with a roof over your head, then this is will do. If you are looking for some class and something extra and are willing to pay for it, please do yourself a favor and don't stay here. We would have had a cleaner, nicer experience staying at a low budget hotel, that at this one. Never again.

Top Quality

Accommodations were some of the best of 12+ hotels we have used. The hallways and lobby had clean carpets and there were no stale or unpleasant smells. Thank you for very clean bathrooms. Ramada will be our choice in the future; it is one of the best and we look forward to our next visit.
