Save your money and stay elsewhere….

The hotel lobby is beautiful but that is where the beauty end. The room (at least the one we were given) was run down and dirty. Definitely not worth the price. Additionally when complaining to management how others were offered early check in while we had to wait 3+ hours for a room, he was….lets just say, less than helpful. There are a lot of better lodging locations in Philly.

Upscale convenient location

Pleasantly surprised, staff was amicable & property well kept up. Housekeeping did a great job. Breakfast was less than stellar at typical hotel prices though. One area they could step it up, didn’t notice fresh fruit, presentation etc. but the other attributes mostly outweigh this issue. Still heartedly recommend.

The pillows were awful - as flat as a pancake and woke up with a headache every morning due to zero support. Also, first time ever staying in a hotel where there was no mini fridge to put or store away drinks. The entire fridge was stocked full of "only purchasable" items from the hotel. Made no sense.

The location is great. My room smelled awful and the front desk switched me to another room as soon as I asked. The treadmills in the gym are dated. The Sunday brunch was good and though the service was friendly, when I asked about an item I couldn’t find but should have been there, the waiter shrugged. The beds are comfortable but the sheets are a weird polyester. All this to say, it’s a good hotel, but not a Travel and Leisure Top 50, as they advertise.
