Beautiful room with wonderful amenities. Just a little noisy with guests coming down the stairwell before 5am (the guests’ fault though, not the hotel’s!) and I had some issues getting the aircon to switch off and/or warm up, but otherwise a glorious stay in a delightful setting and I would love to stay next time I’m in Philly.

The good: A very cozy hotel with comfortable outdoor areas that feel secure and peaceful. The antique aesthetics feel very at home in the Old City area and the amenities offered are excellent. I would definitely recommend this hotel, and will be returning here on future trips if possible. The not great: Check in instructions could have been much more clear. The lack of any staff on the premises made it difficult to get answers to questions. My party and multiple other guests that we observed had to wonder around the hotel until stumbling upon their room by chance.

Traveling from Va

The place was awesome, the pictures were good but to see it in person it was beautiful. We had handicap parking right out front of the building, plenty of shops to walk too and eat. We used uber to go to dinner and Rivers Casino. Was a great weekend for the family.
