Nice place! Not having to interact with a lot of people which was nice. Wish there was a vending machine with toothpaste and stuff, but I got around to it with CVS. The area is lively and full of bars, but Philly is slightly scary at night lol, in that area specifically. The hotel was clean and nice, not many complaints in that part. I actually enjoyed it. The windows are frosted and looked onto another apartment building so it lacked some sunlight, but the area is so walkable that you can just go out for a walk. And I really appreciated having the iron and ironing board specially for my trip. Great stay! Would do it again.

Spacious rooms but the bathroom fan was very noisy, lights were not working, and the Roku wasn't friendly. For the price, worth it.

The building had tons of character, was very clean, bed was comfortable. You are in the city and it’s an older historic building so you will hear the city. You will not interact with a human for check in, check out or at all for the stay (no staff). It’s in a great location and I enjoyed my stay.
