Gena & James are GREAT!!!
Pros:

My family traveled from NY due to a death in the family. The services and comfort provided by Gena during check-in was very comforting and accommodating. Both James and Gena have been wonderful uplifting spirits and I’m happy and grateful for the experience here at the Sheridan and the services provided.

Amazing stay
Pros:

The desk lady, Gena, was ABSOLUTELY amazing. She really made my experience memorable, and worth the money spent. She also helped me to experience the club lounge which is definitely worth it for travelers! I travel to Delaware often for business, and typically stay in Wilmington and drive from the airport. I decided to stay closer to the airport this time and that is exactly what I will be doing from here on out, at the Sheraton Downtown Philadelphia.

Thanks Gena!!

I don’t have a choice in the matter. It is a company stay.
Pros:

I would love to be able to give this Hotel a five out of five. But the doors are very loud and rattle when they slam. For whatever reason the halls reverberate sounds more so than other hotel room halls. I don’t have an explanation for that, they’re just very loud.

But people are what give things meaning and most of the staff were very gracious and accommodating

Easy of access location, subpar facilities and overly soft spring mattress bed
Pros:

Closeness to all the attractions of the city

Cons:

Cold water showers and faucets. They could not accommodate the large amount of ravers going to the convention and I assume all the hot water was used up all weekend. Took cold showers during my stay and weekend.
