10/10 Excellent

We had a great stay at this hotel. The property is clean, well-maintained, and has solid infrastructure. The on-site restaurant and room service were convenient, and the staff was consistently friendly and helpful. Breakfast options varied between buffet and à la carte, which was a nice touch. The only downside was that our stay coincided with prom season, so there was some noise from events taking place nearby. However, this was a minor issue in an otherwise excellent experience.

The bowl was very nice and in a safe secluded area. The room was clean and well furnished. We had a little trouble with the toilet but after letting the front desk know, it was fixed right away. The breakfast was excellent and the man that worked in there was even better. Super friendly and helpful on suggestions on what to do in Philadelpia. We went out one morning and the battery was dead on our rental car and the manager himself came out and got us started. Overall it was a wonderful...

What a great experience. After having a flight cancelled I found myself at the SpringHill suites. Tired and frustrated, I was met with kindness, and a great welcome from Freddie at the front desk. Check in was quick and painless. Additionally, both shuttle drivers I met were extremely kind, especially Quinn. Would highly suggest this hotel to others who may find themselves in the Philadelphia area!

10/10 Excellent

Visiting Philly for daughter's graduation and touring. Center City hotels were too expensive--this was a little farther out from downtown but close to freeway so easy access to UPenn, Center City, Amish country, etc. 15-20 min to downtown. Quiet, you wouldn't know you were near the airport. Great, friendly, courteous,helpful staff! Good breakfasts with variety (we stayed for a week). Clean comfortable well designed rooms. Good mattress, which is something very important to me.

We were able to store our bikes and they were kind enough to give us a late check out. Overall, a wonderful experience. Would love to stay here again next time we are...
