This room is super cool. We did love staying in the space, but there’s 0 instruction on how to check in, or check out. Theres no front desk and no one to really call for anything except the restaurant staff which at times were kinda clueless. The tv wouldn’t connect to wifi so we couldn’t use it. No one gave us instructions for checkout so I just left the key on the counter and left the door unlocked? 10/10 cool space, but yeah- not a hotel, if you book here you’re kind of on your own to figure everything out and for this price point I think they should have someone to call at minimum like a with home sharing apps

The toilet was leaking and the wifi was broken and when I told the restaurant manager (there is no hotel staff) he was apologetic but complained about the wifi company and offered nothing to me except that I should send an email and maybe someone else could offer some future reparation. Given the price point this is super disappointing.

Located in a very eccentric and diverse community. Please note this is a walk up hotel which we had no difficulty with but others may have. Excellent venue choice when attending a concert at the Fairmont Theatre. Room decor was modern and sexy. Huge sofa and the soaking tub definitely soothe the soul after a long night. The exposed brick and sky light brightened the morning with the hand picked Coffee which was A ! I would give additional an additional plus plus if cream or sugar was in room. Restaurant below wa s delicious. We sampled one of their famous wood fired pizza’s which is definitely a MUST!! Comfort and class without the big city chaos! Kudos. We return and stay again if the opportunity presents.

Rustic, Interesting place.

The place was "interesting", not really for me. Cons: I don't like that the hotel doesn't open until 2pm, and when calling, I did not get a call back. Also the couch needs a good professional cleaning and the door locks were problematic for me. PROS: I did like the rustic, homey feel, the bathroom bathing area and the large and spacious room.

Very cute but too noisy to justify the price.

Stayed in Room 4 and overall felt like I paid for the aesthetic more than functionality for $680 for two nights. Pros: - Beautifully designed space, I really enjoyed the layout more than anything. - They left a jug of water in the fridge which is a small gesture but I appreciated it. - Fully stocked kitchen with a stovetop and oven. It even has a dishwasher too. - The staff I did interact with were all very kind. Cons: - Didn’t receive a confirmation from the hotel on the check-in process. - Noise, you’re right next to the above ground subway so from 5am to midnight you’ll hear trains passing. It’s frequent enough to really notice and each time it sounds like an a little thunder clouds or if you lived 3 miles from an airport. The heater also makes a noticeable enough sound and it takes a while for it to go up two degrees so you’ll hear it for a while. - Functionality flaws: Although the blinds are gorgeous, they are thin so light might wake you up. The blinds in the bathroom that face the subway are a little thin too.The bed only had a comforter and fitted sheet, there was no top sheet. Golf ball sized chunk missing out of the floorboard and the floors a little uneven. No shower liner so you just have to stick the curtain in the tub with you and the pipes don’t drain well so you’ll have small wading pool while you shower. Overall, if this had only cost me $550 maybe $600 for 2 nights I’d be more than happy to book again. But $680 is too much for the cons.

Great space in Fishtown.

We had a very nice stay and were very impressed with the space. It is cool. We were visiting a daughter that lives in Fishtown and this was convenient and a great space to hang out in. That said, it is Philly with all that Philly has to offer. And on a summer night that includes plenty of street noise and the L along with the great bars and night life. You won’t forget this place. The restaurant was terrific too.

Justin’s birthday stay at Wm. Mulhern’s Sons

I had read previously the hotel was not great with communication, but I got the front desk with my first attempt to call and they were very responsive and helpful. Check in is unorthodox because you deal with restaurant staff who don’t all know all the procedures with the hotel, but it was quick and easy nonetheless. The room was stunning and we loved our stay in room 4. Bed was comfy, skylight and brick were beautiful, location was perfect for us and is very walkable to lots of great restaurants. We ordered takeout from the restaurant and ate in our room, which was well furnished with kitchen necessities. We slept just fine, but the proximity to the train might be an issue for those earlier to bed and who sleep more lightly—we didn’t go to sleep until after the train stopped running, so no worries for us! The coffee situation is a bit fussy, but it was also kinda fun to try pour over. Overall a lovely experience. We’d visit again.

We booked this room for our wedding weekend. The room was different than what was shown on Expedia- they flipped room 3 and 4.... which ended up working g just fine... my only issue was that when I called the front desk they didn’t offer anything to relieve the problem... round of drinks or a bottle of champagne in our room would have been nice. The space was beautiful- but you are basically staying in an Airbnb with no service.. so bring snacks, drinks, and ready to make your bed. There were a few issues with the shower plumbing leaking, and light flickering... again all manageable- but not what we expected for a high end boutique. I live in the area so I knew we were next to the train, but for our of towners- be aware that the train is loud! Overall, the stay worked out and provided us a memorable wedding weekend with each other and the bridemaids getting ready.

Amazing hotel!

This was unlike any hotel I have stayed at before. It was more like a beautiful apartment than an ordinary hotel. The only thing that was tricky was getting into the room, because the building is very old the key was not working but the manager was able to help me get in and showed me the trick to the door. The restaurant was amazing as well and the service was top notch. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!
