Cool ass hotel

The staff were really helpful and really kind checking in was super simple the man at the front desk well spoken and kind to all. I really enjoyed my stay, especially with the room view. I hope to come back again the restaurant downstairs is also pretty damn good and they really are generous with the wine also the location of the hotel itself is really good in walking distance and each direction. There’s coffee shops, tourist stops, places to eat and drink a bus stop down the road and super simple for Uber to find location when I come back to Philly I plan on staying in the same spot. I don’t usually leave good reviews but man this place was great. Also the cleaning service the lady is super sweet thank you to all the staff members. I hope to visit again soon

Average

The accomodations were fine but the facilities were dated, and the amenities were lacking. Small details that make impact were missing. Coffee quality was not good. Water was served in the lobby with shot glass size cups. Nothing egregious but nothing exceptional.

This is a good value as far as the price but definitely a dated hotel with furnishings that don’t seem like they have been updated since the 1980s. The staff is very friendly and professional and helpful. The first room I was given had a really strong scent of air freshener/ perfume. If you’re sensitive to chemicals this is not the place to stay. They moved me to another room with a balcony that had more fresh air but the door to the balcony did not lock. There is some construction around the hotel so it’s not super easy to access but is close ti the subway and a lovely area of old town. I would not personally stay again. But for 2 nights it was an inexpensive good deal which is what I needed for this trip.

We stayed in the river view king room with patio and I loved it. Sitting out on the patio looking at the river was so peaceful. The room was so cute! It was cozy and comfortable with the fireplace and jacuzzi tub. My only complaint is, I did take advantage of the tub while there and one of the jets kept popping off. My husband and I really enjoyed our stay and definitely will be returning.

Great authentic hotel. Ask for a room at the back as traffic noise from I95 is constant at the front. No breakfast. Comfy room with great shower and whirlpool bath. Bins for recycling would be helpful.

Good location near SEPTA. However, the staff wasn't amazing. I waited 15 minutes to check in because they were more concerned with whoever was on the phone than with the customer standing right in front of them. Also, they told me they had coffee and muffins until a certain time, I arrived before that time, and everything was gone. That was frustrating. Otherwise, its sufficient, but I won't be staying here again.
