This hotel is located close to all major attractions in Philly in the local neighborhoods, making it convenient to explore all the nearby tourist sights. The rooms come with a small kitchen, offering that extra comfort during your stay. The grocery shopping service adds a nice touch to make your vacation easier, but the homemade marmalade at dining might not be to everyone's taste.

My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. The location was fantastic, close to all major attractions in Philly, local neighborhoods, and the Old City, making it very convenient to explore the nearby tourist sights. The rooms were decent, featuring a rear bedroom with a small kitchen, but the value for money could have been better. The service, including the grocery shopping service, was satisfactory. However, the dining options, especially the home-baked bread, left a bit to be desired.
