Great staff. Tiny unimpressive room.
The staff was great! Everyone was friendly and very helpful. The room was so small that it felt claustrophobic. No place to sit other than the bed and no lobby to relax in.

Great Center City stay
Great hotel in a great location. The service was excellent throughout the property. The coffee bar in lobby was great and had a number of tables where I could get some work done. There are tons of restaurants and shops nearby. Parking across the street was easily accessible ($42 / 24 hours, $50 / 24 hour for in/out privileges.) Will definitely stay here again!
