10/10 Exceptional

Everyone at the front desk and all staff were super cool. Easy check-in, great policy for leaving bags before or after check-in, and overall cool vibe.
Alex, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Love this place.

Was on a solo trip to the northeast and was glad to stay here after NYC. The hostel staff were all basically my age and super friendly. Excited to say I made good friends with them. Pablo, Sara, Via, they were all super helpful and fun. The kitchen was great too, was glad to not have to spend money going out.

Great service.

The service was terrific. They have a full kitchen. Although technically there is street parking, it's extremely difficult to find one nearby, and it's expensive. However, street parking is free after 10 pm if you only need it for overnight.

The staff were very helpful and friendly. The neighborhood is perfect to stay in for visiting Philadelphia, the Market-Frankford line is literally around the corner. I am from Philadelphia and moved out of state and I will always come stay here when I visit Philadelphia.

Great hostel experience

This has got to be one of the best hostel experiences I’ve ever had! And at a great price! Comfy bed, clean bathrooms, friendly staff, great location! Good internet connection too.

Hostel is kept clean and everything you need is provided. The staff is very accommodating when you want to store your luggage and bikes after you check out.
Sue, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Love this place!

The Apple Hostel is run by young people from around the world who understand hostel culture fluently. They are friendly, hospitable, relaxed, and service-oriented. There is a high quality shared kitchen, they offer local dining recommendations, and they do special mini-events every night (free soda, free beer, etc). The stairs up to the rooms still suck (this is *not* an accessible hotel!) but if you’re young and able to schlep your suitcases, don’t let those stairs chase you away; it’s a fantastic place.

The hostel is good to stay for a day. I didn't notice when I visit too early, I have to sleep outside of Hostel until 7 AM or later because I having less energy. And also I have to buy cheap tickets for the Amtrak in case I don't miss the train. Other yhan that, the Hostel is a great stay.
