Good stay for the cost. The room itself was better than expected but the area is not good. I did feel safe because the building is secure however, the area is rundown. There was also construction going on and parking was very limited. Very clean but smelled like weed. Staff was very good about responding to my issues.

I had a medical emergency just before the day of the stay and I had requested a refund, the host ignored all my messages. I contacted customer service and they even called multiple times for a refund request. An hour after the listed start time the host responded, I told the host via the number that was not listed on the rental I requested the refund before the date and their was no response same for customer service. The host ignored the message on that number as well. Just stick with air BNB it’s more worth your money

Very clean and well put together location. All it needs is to fix the heating in the room do to AC in the window which creates a draft and the heat they give doesn't exceeds the cold draft. Over all I would stay again.

Totally reasonable for the price

The room was warm and comfortable while it was freezing outside. There’s a small grocery store only a block away and several restaurants and food trucks near the Temple University campus (although its cheaper to cook in your room). My only complaint is that the people upstairs were very loud, often late into the night. They would play music loudly and come stomping down the stairs or bicker with each other in the hallway. I’m not too bothered personally, but it’s something to consider for light sleepers. I’m also not sure if these people were guests or permanent residents. The wifi dips in and out every couple minutes. Also, I felt that my room needed a bit more detailed spot cleaning but I didn’t really mind. I saw some complaints that the neighborhood is sketchy, but if you ask me, those complaints are most certainly from a position of privilege and prejudice. Philadelphia is a big, old city. Not every neighborhood is totally remodeled or given proper care by the city- that’s just how it is. There may be a lot of trash/ litter in the surrounding area, but this property is clean and there is nothing sketchy going on. I never felt like I was in danger. Period.

My stay at the hotel was good. However, I am still waiting to get the cleaning deposit fee refunded almost a month later and I have not received any replies to my inquiries about it. This has lowered my review considerably.

I gave this guy a deposit of 200 dollars to his zelle which was shady but not enough to fuss over. He refuses to send it back and blocked my number. I cannot leave a good review until this is fixed. Don't go here if you going to end up spending an extra 200 since this guy seems like he will just finesse you.

Good and fair price/service

Although it was not the best looking neighborhood, the hotel had a very good appearance and security, the rooms were equipped with all the essentials such as towels, soap and shampoo, appliances and kitchen, the beds were comfortable and the place is quite clean inside and free wifi, only details would be that it doesn't have drinking water in the room.

I love how the management team is very responsive when you need them. There was a problem with my room and it was fixed expeditiously and I love that. It’s so quiet there you wouldn’t think there’s other guests. I love it overall and I recommend anyone visiting Philly to stay there.

My stay at the hotel was great. The surrounding neighborhood is a normal neighborhood. It is safe and reasonably quiet. I didn't feel afraid for my safety once. The street parking nearby was available throughout my stay. The water pressure of the shower was heavenly. The room itself reminded me of the cute, small apartments in Japan. Definitely great for when you are planning on using the room for relaxing, showering, and sleeping after a long day outside. The bed was solid and comfortable. The room has a kitchenette area: complete with a fridge, microwave, and stove, which were very useful.

SAVE YOURSELF!!!!

This not-so cozy little gem is nestled among crack dens & gospel missions in one of the roughest parts of Philly! Take a nice long hot shower. But bring your own soap because you’ll find the soap dispenser as empty as the condemned houses all around you! No washcloths or bath mat towels are provided. Charge all of your electronic devices before climbing into bed. Decide if you're gonna unplug the TV or AC because the other three outlets don't work! Climb up to the top bunk. What’s that? You’ll take the bottom bunk? No, you silly thing. There IS no bottom bunk. Crawl onto the small pad on a wood plank. The pillow case & comforter will provide deep exfoliation. The pillow case and comforter are extra scratchy! It’s as if papier mâché made linens! (Oh! La La! French linens with a thread count of deux!). And, I know what you’re gonna say! But won’t the top sheet get in the way of my skin care? Nope! Because this room doesn’t have one! In the morning, wander down to the 1st floor & take in that VIEW! Oh, did I say “view”? I meant Vue! As in a Saturn Vue. It’s parked right out in front of the hotel and loaded with garbage! If you dare venture out amongst the trash filled lots & threatening folks, you’ll run your fastest mile since high school! Because in about a mile the neighborhood gets slightly better. I hope you enjoy your stay even more than I did! Cause if you check out early, you won’t get a refund. Heck, you won't even get a reply!
