The staff was very pleasant...i was just disappointed by the mold and hard water on rim on bottom of shower. The bathroom is an important place. I come from hilton background. And i hope that housekeeping can become a little more mindful of places like that in which need to be cleaned.

The property was ok. However, a few days after the stay I noticed two separate charges on my credit card. The total was for $100. Repeated attempts to contact the property manager have gone unanswered. I called several times. I did file a dispute with my credit card company.

Will NOT use HILTON Homewood Suites Again

I experienced such poor service & an unsatisfactory stay this past weekend.To begin we had to wait 45 minutes to check in because ROOMS were not ready.The room was no cleaned well,crumbs and skittles on the floors.Once we got settled we realized we had NO PHONE. We let the front desk know and they informed us there was NOTHING for them to do even though that’s a safety issue,they offered Hilton Points. WHY would sell that room to anyone? The room itself was old and outdated.There was 1 hook in the bathroom for a Suite that sleeps 4,why? The attempt to make it updated is a door to the bathroom that doesn’t block out light or sound that slides like a Barn Door. 2 roaches made an appearance in the kitchen & bathroom.The water pressure in the bathroom sink was a trickle. I didn’t have a phone to complain and my room was already paid for so at this point, we were STUCK. Front desk did not give myself and other patrons a decent or honest reason as to WHY a 45 minute wait was necessary. She was polite but very dismissive.Things happen, short staff happens but give us the courtesy and respect to be HONEST! This particular establishment dropped the ball numerous ways.We stayed 2 nights and to add insult the injury during Sunday check out they had a Plastic juice container with a hand written not saying “Room Keys”. I was in awe of the unprofessionalism.This was beyond disappointing and pray I’ll never have this experience at ANY establishment.

Pretty Good Hotel

Better than expected for such a reasonable price. Room was a little grubby but nothing too bad. The staff was friendly and helpful. Parking is free if you can find a spot on the street, $25 a night in the lot across the street. Bed was comfy and breakfast was pretty good.

They insisted that I show the passport and Visa before I can get to my room. This should have been made clear before. They gave only 1 room key and said they don't give 2 even if our booking was for 2 people. Then tried to charge 250 RS/- when we lost our only key. Lastly, I am very sure I booked the room with breakfast, yet at the hotel they told us no breakfast is included. Overall pretty bad experience!

Great Stay!

Our stay here was great. It was super hot outside and I was a little nervous because in the hallways the air conditioning seemed like it wasn’t working well but our room was very cool and comfortable. This location worked for us because we were seeing a show at the Mann but be aware, it’s not close to Center City at all. If you have a car, the parking lot is safe and secure and just a very short walk to the hotel if you don’t wish to Valet. I only had coffee but breakfast was included and seemed to have a variety of typical items. Planning to come again next month for another show!
