My room had dirty carpets with stains and rips. The bathroom was very dated and untidy. The entire place needs updating. Take your chances with the elevator. It was a very uncomfortable night. I will not stay here again

My family phone service did NOT work in the building. 5 ppl w different providers. It was NOT worth the amount paid for 2 rooms. I had to literally leave my room and go sit out front to answer calls, emails, and text!

The woman at the desk was very friendly and helpful. The elevator needed to be vacuumed. The room was nice and clean but there was a prong from something broken off in one of the bathroom outlets. Breakfast was a fail. When I went down the coffee was empty, the decaf was cold, the half and half was empty. There was no eggs or sausage. The butter was empty.
We ended up just going out to breakfast.
The parking lot was old and run down and the river view from the deck was blocked by an old chainlink fence. It feels very unloved.

Overnight front desk clerk barely communicated why my credit card was being charged. His body language was so lazy. My room had no towels nor rags. Just a horrible experience.

Staff service and quiet location by the water made this a nice stay. For the hotel national star rating, this hotel was great for an early morning flight out of PHL.
