8.2/10 Very Good! (1,010 reviews)
Upon arrival we noted air conditioner was not cold. Very nice Ms. Emily helped reset and it was cold for a minute. She called engineering. We had to leave for an event and when we returned to the room much later noted it was still high 70's. Restless, hot night of sleep. The band was fabulous, all staff great especially Marie, Willie, Griffin.

We love the Home2Suites brand. Great rooms and breakfast. The rooms were a bit dirty, though, and the AC in the common areas was not working (making these areas a bit uncomfortable).

2/5 - Disappointing
Verified traveler
As with University of Penn, I walked the campus a little bit, but there needs to be more parking garage/lot for visitors. Only 2hr parking limit on street
5/5 - Excellent
