The staff greeted us so warmly after a long day of holiday traveling! The room was great and the location rocked! So close to all things Philly & just in time for the Christmas decor around the city!
Clean room with basic amenities & helpful, courteous staff. Lovely bar/restaurant area with attentive bartender.
The only minor disruption is the guestroom doors slamming at all hours of the day and night. If you (or the guests near you, or housekeeping staff, etc.) let a guestroom door close on its own it will automatically SLAM closed ten times louder than it needs to.
