Contemporary hotel in a great location

Nice hotel in a great area, close to the city centre, with lots of cafes, bars and restaurants nearby to choose from. The room was modern, quite sparsely furnished but had everything I needed and was very comfortable. The staff were both friendly and efficient. I'd happily stay again.

Hotel was very okay. Facilities were basic. Room had a sliding transparent door between the toilet and bedroom, which offers little privacy. Daily housekeeping. Water/ice machine were located only on the basement floor, which is inconvenient

It was a nice enough place to stay. The rooms were clean, and small, which is what I was looking for. However, I found that the wifi wasn't the greatest, and I wish the hotel had a proper lobby, as I found myself wanting a quiet place to sit down and do work.

Really convenient for a wedding in Philly. Could get everywhere in Center City quickly including the train station. Room was small but perfect for what I needed and the furniture makes good use of the space. A little noisy from the street and my room heard the elevator ding each time it opened, but the blackout shades balanced that out.

Quick overnight - very clean, comfy bed and pillows, super friendly front desk staff! Great location. The walls are a little thin so bring earplugs if you’re a light sleeper. I’d definitely stay again!
