It is literally on the Temple U campus! It is right around the corner from the Inn. As small as it is it is located near a variety of restaurants to eat from. The bed is comfortable! The wallpaper should be updated in the bathroom but it was clean and it had no signs of being worn out/abused (holes).No mini fridge in the room or microwave. They have the fridge available for an extra fee of $10?! they ice machine, it is in the basement.Parking is $21.60 (taxes) per night but you can come and go as you please you just need to have the placard for your mirror when parked. 24 hour 7 eleven in walking distance if you need something to drink or snack on!

My son and I stayed here when we saw Metallica at Lincoln Financial. A couple blocks walk to metro, excellent pizza joint nearby. The hotel itself was clean and snug. Definitely a good quiet place to stay.

Spend wisely and stay away

The check-in was the only positive. Room was in much need of an upgrade and was overall not clean. I Had to clean the tv remote B/c it was sticky dirty. I found a hair between the top sheet and the fitted sheet. Yuck. Upon checkout, the desk clerk couldn’t even stop talking to a coworker to say goodbye. After I put my card keys on the counter and turned to walk away, I went back to put the cardkey below the counter so no one would take them and re enter my room, then the staff person said “I see them”. No good bye or inquiry about my stay. It was almost like a Hostile.

Convenient of you’re visiting Temple University. The inn is nothing special but the staff is great. The young men and women who work there are helpful and friendly. The inn is directly on campus so nights can be loud. My only complaint is that the AC was not working and the room was stifling hot. We didn’t notice until late so did not bother to call for maintenance in the middle of the night, our fault. I’ve stayed at the Conwell many times and have found it just fine.

Pro: On campus; Con: Needs big updates & AC

It's clean and safe and right in the heart of campus. But the air conditioning does not work, the tubs don't drain very well (meaning: you're showering in a pool of dirty water), and there are essentially no amenities whatsoever (no fitness center, in-room fridge, safe, or even a phone to call for help). If you can, bring a fan to compensate for the lack of A/C. The location is terrific and the hotel is overall clean and trustworthy. But it's long overdue for a basic renovation (rooms likely date to the 70s/80s). If you have difficulty sleeping when the room is too warm, this may not be the place for you. It's far from food (save for the campus pub & 7/11). But you don't have to be afraid of your surroundings and the campus is gorgeous.
