The Monaco was great, centrally located and the staff and facilities were excellent. Only reason it wasn't 5 stars was the food at their pub - overpriced and a very small selection. I had the Philly Cheese Steak, which since it was in Philly should have been outstanding, but it was overpriced and bland.

Disliked: Amenities
Where do I start? This hotel had NONE of the amenities listed online.For starters, there was no spa, the rooftop was closed, and the gym was closed. The water didn’t get hot, the body wash and lotion were both super strong cucumber scented that severely dried out your skin. There was no complimentary water. I asked for a coffee pot in my room when I booked, and of course it wasn’t in the room. I didn’t even worry about requesting one. I would NEVER book here ever again. I can say the valet staff was nice, and that’s about it.

Staff was 10/10 great! Everything else was kinda a 6/10. Major overhaul is needed, everything felt a little old and grungy. They don't offer breakfast with your stay... and coffee is only limited to a short window in the morning. They really should offer coffee all day in the lobby. The rooms were okay, but not great.

They downgraded my reservation with Expedia blaming Expedia for the mishap. I reserved a king room and they gave us a small smelly not clean double room. The hallways had food and trash everywhere including a microwave lol. When confronted with this basic unfair checking in situation of downgrading a package that I paid over 1400$ for two nights on Expedia all they can do or say was to call Expedia. They said they can only offer rooms based on unavailability. Expedia told me the price was going to be reviewed by management on checkout. When i checked out nothing was taken care of and I paid 1400$ for two nights for a small double room. There was no hot water either so couldn’t even shower in the morning too. The Monaco Hotel used to be a jewel of hotel for its location in Old City and its luxury. Sorry to say I’m very disappointed about this experience and not sure if I will ever book there again.
