We requested a non-smoking room, but the room we received had a definite smoke smell plus cleaner smell. Front desk guy lied and said that it was their air freshener scent. He wouldn't assign us to another room because according to him the hotel was at max capacity. Don't be fooled by the good ratings, this hotel should be a 5 out of 10. You get what you pay for.

Lovely little independent motel in a nice (safe) neighborhood in Philadelphia. Room was very clean and they were nice about checking in past 1 AM after a late flight. Staff were friendly and quick. Easy walk to the grocery store with plant based options.

just average

Place was average, peeling paint and such, there was a storm and for 2 days no power, no hot water, they should have generators to at least keep the customers comfortable.

Power just came back on as I got there. Not their fault. I was let in my room and told I’d get a key as soon as the WiFi came back up. I never got the key. So I was unable to leave my room to get food or explore the area
