10/10 Exceptional

Stayed for 3 nights and had a great experience. The room was clean, spacious, and the king-size bed was very comfortable. Front desk and housekeeping staff were professional and friendly. I also appreciated the fast service when I requested an electric kettle for tea. The only minor issue was that the bathroom sliding door was a bit hard to move. Overall, a pleasant stay and I would return.

The place is getting renovated and the overall appearance and amenities have slipped a bit since my prior stays. The complementary brewed coffee in the lobby is no longer available and access is now only through the entrance on Samson Street. Staff were still great, as ever.

Well they're doing some renovation so you have to be prepared for taking the stair here and going around the construction site there ,but with that said the place is just a gem in a perfect location with great people and a fantastic bar and restaurant on the first floor.

There is some construction going on that makes the layout a bit confusing, but even with that, we had a very pleasant 3 day stay in a comfy clean room, great bathroom, nice common areas, and a fabulous, accommodating staff. Also attached to a really fun restaurant/bar, Louie Louie. Great location for the University and Penn Medicine facilities.
