    clean rooms with great location but small elevators

    The room I stayed in was spacious with excellent ventilation. The cleaning staff were especially polite, providing me with extra washcloths when I needed them.

    The elevator situation could use improvement as it felt too cramped for the number of guests during peak hours.

    tasty snacks
    cozy lounge
    renovation noise

    The staff made my stay such a joy when they surprised me with fresh cookies delivered to my room on a late night after my long travels. I loved unwinding in the cozy lounge with great tea and a tasty snack while chatting with fellow guests. The only downside was a bit of noise during renovations, but honestly, it didn't spoil the good vibes! 😊

    friendly staff
    convenient location
    well-equipped gym
    cleanliness issue
    high price

    During my stay, the staff made me feel at home. They were friendly and attentive, especially one staff member who took on different roles, showing great leadership. The location was convenient for accessing the hospital and other sights. I enjoyed the 24-hour gym, which was well-equipped for my workouts. I think as someone who appreciates art, I felt comfortable in the vibe of the place.

    I encountered some issues with the cleanliness of my bathroom on a few occasions, which took away from my overall experience. Additionally, I felt the price of the room was high for the value offered.

    club access
    elegant decor
    comfortable seating
    noisy renovations

    The club access for rewards members provided great snacks and comfortable seating to unwind. The spacious lobby features elegant decor, making for a welcoming environment while waiting to check in.

    Noise levels during my stay were a serious issue, primarily due to ongoing renovations. Frequent drilling outside my window started early in the morning, disturbing any chance of sleeping in. Opening the blinds to enjoy the sunlight wasn't an option either, as workers were right outside. Coffee options also fell short, lacking a decent brew in the lobby, forcing me to venture out each morning. All this, paired with high parking fees, left me wondering if I'd get better value elsewhere.

    The room was clean and spacious with air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, and tea/coffee maker. Good shower with free toiletries and nice towels. Enjoyed the complimentary breakfast in the executive lounge. The fitness center was available for use, which was great. Staff were super helpful and friendly throughout my stay.

    coffee maker
    breakfast options
    limited dining

    We had a lovely time visiting the nearby museums and attractions, and the location made it easy to get around. The room was clean and spacious, which was a big plus for our family. It was also convenient to have a coffee maker in the room for those early mornings before heading out. However, we did find the breakfast options to be lacking, which would have been a nice addition to our stay.

    dated rooms
    thin walls

    The location near University City is convenient, and the staff is friendly and accommodating. however, the rooms feel dated with thin walls. The breakfast options were decent yet limited, and some maintenance issues were present. Overall, the experience was decent and would be suitable for a short visit.

    clean room
    slow elevators

    The staff was absolutely wonderful, especially Wanda who helped me feel safe in the area! My room was clean and spacious, making my week-long stay quite comfortable.

    But darling, those elevators might as well be on a leisurely vacation. they were SO slow! Plus, I nearly had a heart attack opening the bathroom faucet—water hardly warm, how rude!
