Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Place was nice. Staff was great. Has parking which is great. Just in a nondescript area on a busy road and not super convenient if your activities are more central Philly. On the positive, the ride through West Philly to Bart’s Bagels - a great bagel shop a few miles away - was awesome. Nice to see there are still cool neighborhoods for non wealthy people that aren’t gentrified yet. Love Philly. Good time!
