2/10 Poor

The washing machine broke, our clothes sat in a pool.of water until someone came to fix it the next day. My kids missed school because their school uniforms were in that of clothes. I had just gotten out of hospital andneeded to relax for a follow up Dr's appt on Tuesday and had to wear pajamas to my appointment. They on gave usenan extended checkout until 12noon and our clothes were still not ready and the hotel also shut off the tv and house keeping kept knocking on and opening the door as if we were not having an issue. The front desknwas notified multiple time and the communication was terrible. I feel as though I should be compensated for this major inconvience.

Will not stay again.
Room smelled. Moved to a new room. Also smelled. Dirty carpets had not been vacuumed in ages, rips in the rugs, food sprayed on walls and ceiling, room not equipped at all. Ice maker not working. Shower knob not working. Altogether a terrible disappointment. Breakfast food was old and stale.

Great trip.....small things off
Great customer service the whole time!!! They even opened the breakfast area so we could try to see the fireworks!! Great location. We walked from Amtrak station. The pool had a crying screaming toddler for almost 30min till we walked out, thats just bad fellow guests. The pool didn't look the cleanest, let the kids play but i stayed out. The room was great for family of 4! Almost full size fridge was great, and utensils, saved us! The pull out sofa had some sort of big stain that looked like a bad clean up job of blood or poop! Again amazing customer service and nicest staff!!!

Overall hotel was comfortable. Valet parking personnel exceptional. All personnel pleasant. Had gone down to front desk to ask a technical question. Was assured someone would come to the room. No one did as far as I know. Dreadful coffee though. Need to upgrade the plastic coffee makers and coffee. Not drinkable

Adoption Trip
I can’t say enough good things. We were there for two weeks as we adopted our daughter and visited CHOP. The staff was absolutely amazing. From the valet guys and custodial staff to the front desk and managers, they all “adopted” our daughter as well. This hotel and staff will forever live in our hearts. They made our first two weeks as parents wonderful.

Ok but could improve
It was ok for the price. Good sized room in a not so new hotel. Valet parking is $45, but you can park on the street if it is a weekend. Pool was good. Hot tub wasn’t functioning. The breakfast was ok. But those eggs; they tasted like plastic.

It is acceptable for this room price, I recommend to have more varieties with the breakfast, maybe you can charge a symbolical money to customers, to me it really doesn't matter.

Rude front desk staff on a power trip. Hotel room door was very difficult to open/defective and unsafe in an emergency. Room ceiling and ceiling fan was absolutely disgusting - dust hanging off blades - unsanitary. Card readers in elevator can take a while to work.

We like the xonvenience of a kitchen and that is walkable distance to the uni. We wanted to use the pool but went by the pool twice during the hours of operation and it was locked. We went and let front desk know we wanted to ise it and they never unlocked the door. Other than not being able to use the pool we liked it and would stay there again.
