I had a Priceline bid of $100.00 accepted by this hotel. For that price the hotel is a steal. There are several negative posts about this hotel, but most were written last spring. It appears they are improving.
The biggest negative in my mind (and it's not really bad) is the location. Although you can find many restaurants and shops within about 3 or 4 blocks, there is not much within the immediate vicinity.
I had a car and I think it was an excellent central city location for a car, easy in and out and freeway access.
I also walked around the center city quite a bit and found the location good since I don't mind walking.
The parking was $25.00 per nite for self parking underground. I was thinking of parking cheaper in the Gateway parking lot between 15th and 16th streets on Spring, but opted for the safety and security of hotel parking.
The hotel could use some updating, but most everything worked okay. The TV was not the best, but I did not come to Philly to watch tv.
The room was very clean.
The bed was very comfy. The bathroom was big enough and the marble counter top was nice. The plumbing worked fine.
The door stuck, but after the first few times I found a quick kick at the bottom of the door as I pushed solved that little problem.
I did not eat in the restaurant or use any of the other services.
I would definitely stay at this hotel again although I would prefer another center city location if the price was comparable.
