Our suite was not inexpensive, but it easily slept four, and had plenty of room. The beds were comfortable, if not luxurious, and the room was clean. The bathroom was pretty ordinary, but it was clean and there were lots of towels. Staff was unusually helpful, giving us lots of extra bedding and assistance in getting around Philadelphia. Desk staff... More

The suite was large, quiet and pleasant. When we complained that the air conditioning was noisy, staff was very attentive and someone fixed it right away. The situation is excellent for most sights and the front desk people were helpful with directions. I accepted a very high rate when I booked but I noticed that the rate was much lower... More

Good location, very comfortable bed, ridiculously large room. Happy Hour on Friday had a good vibe with free beer and wine. There's also a complimentary breakfast with lots of offerings from fruit and yogurt, omelets made to order, oatmeal... it's on the second floor of the TGIF connected to the hotel and the space is gloomy and my sneakers were...

I stayed here for 3 nights for a work convention. We had a double room, which was very spacious. All rooms have a mini fridge as well as a microwave. It is nice to have the sleeping quarters away from the living quarters. Plenty of outlets and mirror space as well. The free, hot breakfast was very good. made to... More

Arrived in the early evening and was directed to the manager's reception for snacks and free drinks. The snacks were nothing exciting but it was a nice surprise to have an open bar. We had picked this location simply because it was the cheapest price for the night. Room was a non-smoking king with a view of Ben Franklin Parkway.... More

Our check in was efficient, our room key was ready and wating for us and the front desk personnel smiling and professional . The suites are generously sized (enough space for us, 2 adults and 3 teens)and very clean. We called for... More

I stayed here overnight and have stayed in this hotel before for the marathon. This hotel was a perfect location for the marathon--all within walking distance from the start to finish. It also works for an overnight stay. My rate for the non-smoking king (not a city view) was only $160 which was pretty good compared to the other hotels... More

Good location for visiting the Franklin Institute but for relaxing in your room in the evening just trying to find information on your laptop isnt going to happen unless you pay more.. For the price you pay for the room it should be included..
