The convenience of this property with the Children’s Hospital Philadelphia. And the University of Pennsylvania. The co-op restaurant was amazing. The food was wonderful. Great coffee in the morning in the lobby and lots of areas to work on my laptop. Staff was wonderful rooms were super clean.

The staff was amazing and very friendly. I was in the area to attend a WWE event and the staff recommended that I take the train. Knowing it was my first time (alone with many others attending the same event) they took the time to print instructions to and from the event. The room was very cozy and quiet. Would definitely go again if I’m in the area.

One of the coolest designed rooms I have seen in a hotel. I loved the bookshelves full of real books! Room was quiet enough (can’t help the constant honking outside). The staff were friendly and put coffee out earlier than normal since so many of us were departing before 6am. Two things I didn’t love: 1) no in room tea/coffee and lobby was just in the morning. 2) While eating in the fancy restaurant a mouse ran around and under my chair. I told the staff and they did not seem surprised or bothered! I was clearly a bit shaken so the server comp’d my beverage. I guess rodents come with the city.

Not that many food options around there. It’s basically on a campus so you would have to travel to the heart of the city for different food options.
