10/10 Exceptional! (3 reviews)
This was the perfect place for my group and our needs. Enough beds with options; a dark, quiet room in the basement, a shared room with a two full beds, the top floor king size suite, even a pull out sofa! All useful accommodations for a party of 5 or more. To top it off, the roof top hot tub with a city skyline view was incredible! It was a great location too, in walking distance to our venue in South Philly. Everything worked out perfectly, and I'm grateful that this option was available. Thank you!

There is an unloading area you stay in briefly- you can pay $40 a day to park or drive around the area and park for free- which is what we did. We like the convenience of getting to our car when we want. ..."

"Our room was incredible! It even had its own library/study area with gorgeous views. The bathroom layout was stunning! The only downfall to the hotel was the lack of any ice machines in the hotel.
