Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff were very friendly, social happy hours was a very pleasant surprise, and the 100-year-old hotel was in great shape in the heart of Philadelphia a couple blocks away from Jefferson Health and Penn Medicine Hospital systems. I had a 8th floor small room with a great view of the city. I walked to the hospital for my procedure. I'm definably staying there when I go into Philadelphia again!!

My room was cozy with a lovely sit-in bay window and a great view of the street. My stay included breakfast and wine at the end of the day which was a lovely touch! The hotel is so close to everything I wanted to do. I will definitely be staying there again!

Stephanie

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Room was hot and no way to control heat. Front desk says only way to cool it down is to open the windows. Sucky tv. Not a smart TV and no guide. Just a few channels to choose from. In my opinion bed was too hard; not very comfy. Breakfast was mediocre and they kept running out of coffee. Random dude roaming the halls stealing paintings off the hallway walls (no joke) then caused a ruckus as he kicked the doors on the way out. I'm a Philly native so I'm used to seeing crazy crap like that, but not something you want to see in the hotel you're staying at. Good location but I don't think I'd stay here for more than a night.
