This was a wonderful hotel for my high school reunion weekend. The rooms were large and comfortable and the lobby was a nice gathering place. My only negative review would be for Travelocity for putting me in a handicapped room with a shower that leaked all over the floor due to the fact that neither my husband nor I use a wheelchair. I learned my lesson and will book directly with the hotel next time, even if it costs a little more.

Great room, clean, fresh-smelling, and elegant, a wonderful refuge after a busy day. Original paintings by Swarthmore alums are on display in the hotel and in the guest rooms. Beds and pillows extremely comfortable, and our third-floor room was quiet. For our college visit, we did not even have to use the car we rented: we easily toured the campus on foot, and found attractive dining just steps away in town. The Septa line is also mere steps away. It would have been easy to skip the car rental entirely.

Beautiful hotel, convenient, and good parking

I booked this hotel because it was reasonably close to the airport (20 minutes), and in a good neighborhood. I was going to be arriving after dark and wanted a hotel in a safe place with good parking. This hotel is beautifully appointed, very clean, and very nice. The only negative is that there was no lotion in the bathroom. The beds were very comfortable.
