Perfect hotel and area to stay in, was in the center of many historical sites and museums that we wanted to visit. Very walkable. Also many great dining options to choose from. The staff here were so nice and accommodating. Our room was quaint and also quiet considering it was a fairly busy area.

Easy load in area to check in to property in front of the hotel and easy directions to reaching adjacent parking garage. It is a one time $28 parking fee but it is in and out privileges and worth it vs. finding parking on your own if you have a car. Quiet and comfy bed, a very charming Old City hotel in Philly. Exactly what we wanted! Walkable to everything and much cleaner and exciting vs. Center City.

Wonderful stay! I chose this location based on its close proximity to the metro, but this hotel exceeded our expectations. It was spotlessly clean, the staff went our of their way to be friendly and to make our stay comfortable, and the breakfast was wonderful. We also appreciated the wine and cheese night on Wednesday and the luggage storage. A huge plus is that it was a quiet hotel. Thanks for a great stay!
