Great place to stay and be close to downtown Philly fun. The suite was clean and everything was there for us to enjoy our vacation. The is gated parking with an outdoor and under-building lot. Next time I’m in Philly, I’ll be staying in a Sosuite!!

Needs better maintenance
Not a good neighborhood if you want to get out and walk around. The The company SoSuite rents this unit and it is not managed well. The floors had not been cleaned at all - hair everywhere and so much dirt it turned the bottom of our shoes and socks black. The master bathroom toilet handle was broken. The shower had not been thoroughly cleaned and the shampoo dispenser broken/empty, and no hand soap dispenser provided in the second bathroom. The couch is a stylish futon that is not at all comfortable to sit on and the living room is cramped with a 6 chair dining room table. We left a day earlier than booked. SoSuite said they would refund the cleaning fee since my partner and I had to clean ourselves upon arrival, but I have not yet received a credit.

Enjoyed our stay
Overall we enjoyed our stay. The apt was clean and spacious. Loved our view of the city. We, did, however, have rowdy neighbors that we could hear coming home rather early in the morning. It’s definitely someplace we would stay again. Thank you.

Overall stay was great, place was clean and very comfortable.
I enjoyed my stay, the only complaint I had was during our stay there was a large group staying in the building on our floor that was extremely loud very late at night. And we could hear everything that was going on in the neighboring apartment. Maybe some sound proofing . But I would stay again
