I love staying here. I grew up here so this has always been a very well kept secret. The rooms are always spotless. I picked a room facing the water and it was beautiful. The gentleman that checked us in was very nice. We had a fireplace, the bed was comfortable. Looking forward to our stay again in the summer next time we are in town.

We loved our river-facing room with the cozy fireplace. The location was perfect. We were able to walk to all of the historical sites. When we went to the center city it was just s short Uber ride. We had a fabulous meal at the restaurant one night,and there were many casual restaurants to choose from. It was fun to read the history of the building that made kit a registered historical site. Perfect stay for our first-time Philadelphia visit.
