I didn't arrive until 330am due to flight issues. I called prior to arrival twice to confirm check in and transportation availability. The front desk agent couldn't have been more patient & reassuring. I arrived, was checked right in & proved toiletries. At check out, the mgr was on duty, a mere 4 hrs for me, and she was just as pleasant and helpful. It may be dated but, I had no issues with smell as noted in other reviews. I would stay again.

It did provide a clean , though uncomfortable bed in a tired, worn room in a facility desperately needing renovation or replacement. The one, very busy desk clerk was plodding and made no effort to deal with 40-50 persons (waiting for a room) with anymore dispatch than if they had wandered in gradually one at a time.

Check in took forever!! Was given a filty room, bed unmade, used towels, trash all around.. She gave us another immediately which was good, after we had to haul our stuff back downstairs at 1am. Old dated hotel. We hated it but were desparate. Philly flight cancelation nightmare....in a pinch it was better than sleeping in the airport. Shuttle bus was great. Excellent service there

The condition of the flooding, particularly in the hallways was worn and probably beyond being able to be cleaned giving a rather depressing impression, but carpeting in the room was much nicer and the room was very clean. I would probably stay there again.

This place was a great stopping point in our travels. The front desk was amazing and helped answer all the questions we had. The room was basic but perfect for resting up before a plane ride. There is a shuttle that takes you right to the airport and comes every 30 minutes. It’s a nice spot and did the job. I’d stay there again if I wanted to be close to the airport but it is far out of the city limits.
