Summary of reviews
Guests say
Guests appreciated the great location of the hotel, which is perfect for sightseeing. However, many reviews highlighted significant cleanliness issues, with dirty rooms and bathrooms being a common complaint.

We visit this hotel frequently for its convenient location. The staff is very good, particularly Leonard and Francis on the bell desk. The rooms are well laid out and have everything needed, but we find the bed covers too thin and always have to send down for extra blankets. Response to requests are usually met promptly. The elimination of the Concierge Desk, and the excellent concierges Mary and ...

Pros (+) The front desk staff was so nice. They checked me in with my last minute Priceline reservation, gave me two bottles of water and a cookie and directed me to the nearest parking lots, saving me about $35 a night compared to their valet. The room was spotless, the bed was comfortable, the shower had hot water. Wifi worked well on the 14th floor.
Cons (-) The walls are a little thin. I could hear people in the halls at all hours. The hotel does not offer free parking. Valet is $45 a night. Parking is available across the street for much less.
Pros (+) The location was right for our needs.
Cons (-) This is an older hotel in need of renovations and a good cleaning. Room carpet and furniture a bit dirty, not due to housekeeping, just age - everything was sticky. Bathroom was stained and dirty as well. Would not stay here again. Staff was very good - friendly and professional - except for valet who could not be found....he was not getting another car, cell phone and soda in a hidden corner, Sor...

Pros (+) The view from my room (717) was amazing. The room itself was clean and comfortable. I was attending a symposium at Drexel, so this hotel was within walking distance which was nice.
Cons (-) The hallways needed updating. The carpets were stained and needed replacing. Also the elevators, although there were 6, were frustrating. I arrived exhausted from my flight at around 10pm. All of the elevators were not moving but stopped on high level floors. There were 25+ people waiting and it look 3 elevators until I was able to get on, which took about 5 minutes or so. I was just ready to get ...

Pros (+) Lobby looked nice
Cons (-) I booked a room with a king size bed and received a room with two double beds which was not ideal for it just being me and my girlfriend. They told me valet parking would be cheaper then parking in the garage across the street and I am glad I checked because valet for two days would have costed me roughly 100 dollars and at the garage I paid 44. There was a band aid in the bathroom but other then ...

Pros (+) Location convenient to Art Museum, Franklin Institute and City Hall. Front desk was friendly and helpful. Checkout extended until 1pm upon request. Very affordable.
Cons (-) Room was clean and comfortable, but carpet and room in general was well worn. No safe in room.
Pros (+) Nice lobby
Cons (-) Bad staff, outdated rooms
Pros (+) It’s location
Cons (-) Out of date deco No parking
Pros (+) Comfy room, friendly staff, great location. Hot showers. Fitness center was better than expected.
Cons (-) You can sense corporate sending management brusque memos about controlling costs. Everywhere you look are the little signs of cheaping out: poor wallpaper repairs in the bathroom, door handles with paint on them because they didn’t mask,etc. Parking was $50, but the lot across the street was $7. No included breakfast... all the little signs that they are trying to squeeze as much $ out of the prop...
