Please note that we utilize hotel like room types. This means that this listing represents more than one apartment and your final unit might have minor deviations from the photos above. All items (down to the number of forks and knives), room size, amenities, quality, etc. are exactly the same, but there may be minor room layout or furnishing differences.

Guest Access:
You will have exclusive, private access to your Sosuite apartment.

As a Sosuite guest, you will have access to the lobby, common areas with pool tables and foosball, a fully-equipped fitness center, outdoor seating area, and dog park.

The Neighborhood:
Most people know about West Philadelphia from the show The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. The famous theme song intro put West Philly on the map and since 1990, the neighborhood has been enshrouded in a Will Smith mystique. But there's more to West Philadelphia than just that one verse.

Philadelphia is known for being a city comprised of diverse neighborhoods that were once independent towns. Over a few centuries, these towns were engulfed as the city expanded.

Once you cross the Schuylkill River along Center City’s western banks, West Philadelphia is a city on its own filled with Victorian mansions, an intricate network of trollies, an artist scene, and vibrant immigrant communities unlike any other section of Philadelphia.

If you come to Philadelphia and don’t go to West Philly, you're missing out!

Getting Around:
Philadelphia, one of the country’s most walkable cities, is incredibly easy to navigate either by foot or by public transportation. That just leaves one question: Where to park the car?

On-Street Parking
Philadelphia has thousands of metered spots throughout the city, perfect if you only plan to park for an hour or two.

For paid long-term parking, we'd be happy to share options with you once you book.

For moving around, you'll also find several bus stops, bike ride-sharing stations, and subway stations.

Otherwise, we recommend moving around the city using Uber or Lyft - its fairly affordable!

Family Fun and Games at West Lofts
Our family's stay at West Lofts was an absolute delight! We chose this lovely property when visiting our daughter for a long weekend, and it turned out to be the perfect choice. The Sosuite we stayed in offered unique spaces that were not only fun but also incredibly functional. The highlight for us was the building lounge, which became our go-to spot for family games. With pool and ping-pong tables, it was the perfect setting for some friendly competition. Having a fully-equipped kitchen in our loft was a game-changer. It gave us the flexibility to prepare our own meals, which was especially handy for a family with diverse tastes. The combination of historic charm and modern comfort throughout the entire building was a unique and enjoyable experience. The location was spot-on, making it easy to explore the vibrant neighborhoods of Philadelphia. Overall, our stay at West Lofts was memorable, and we can't wait to return.

Clean place. Very cool old school with excellent gym. Only thing is that it wasn't clear to me that parking is on-street only but was able to find street parking each time I had to.

nice
The only issue we had was Monday morning we did not have internet service, therefore no TV. They needed to restart the router but could not do it in a timely matter. We had added ESPN on our account so we could watch hockey. They were supposed to close the account once they got it up and running and then email me. I never received an email. I contacted them yesterday and they said they would look into it and get back to me but nothing. I doubt they did anything or will do anything.
