Guests say
Guests frequently mention the hotel's excellent location, with proximity to hospitals, restaurants, and downtown attractions being a highlight. However, there are significant concerns regarding the service, with multiple reviews describing rudeness from staff and issues with reservations. Cleanliness seems to be a major drawback, as several guests noted unpleasant odors and dated decor. Despite some complaints about bed comfort and value for price, guests appreciated the comfortable beds, especially in comparison to their experiences with the service.

Pros (+) My son goes to Univ of Pennsylvania and the hotel was 5 minutes from his dorm. I stayed only one night, so I did not use their amenities. The staff was pleasant and accommodating. The room was clean and the king sized bed was really comfortable. I would stay there again and would tell anyone who was going to the area to stay there as well.
