The restaurant is lovely
Antonio and Rasha are amazing staff! They care and make things right. I would try again just because of them! Very kind people

Not hot water when I arrived and night staff did not help to change my room, so after 12 hours flight, I could not shower!
horrible loud and disrespectful guests that made sleep impossible even after my complaint
Night shift front desk was rude and not helpful

Charming Hotel
Pros:

This was our 3rd visit to Penns View Hotel. It is a super cute and quaint hotel. The staff is very nice and makes you feel at home. Great communication before checking in, during and even after. (Very easy to check in and even easier to check out.) They serve yummy muffins for breakfast along with coffee. It’s in a great location to go to Restaurants/Bars (walking distance as well as Uber/Lyfting if you don’t want to drive). They have their own restaurant (with a happy hour) that looks good, but we have not tried it yet. We hope to check it out on our next stay. There is no parking at the hotel, but there is parking RIGHT next door. We never had a problem getting a spot to park. (FYI: Parking in that lot is $40 for overnight. But that is NOT a bad charge considering what parking in Philly can be at any given time/night) If you chose this as your overnight stay or for a few nights, you can’t go wrong! 5 stars!

Cons:

Nothing. Clean rooms, comfy bed. Great service. No complains here!

Amazing oldschool charm
Pros:

I had a really nice stay here. The hotel has real old-world charm and a relaxed old-town feel that makes it very comfortable. Great value for money, with free coffee and cake in the morning, and I loved the old-school key for the room — a lovely touch.

Antonio, the manager, was especially kind and accommodating, offering good rates and making the stay feel personal and welcoming. I’d happily stay here again.

Room was warm big and cosy. This is my second time here and when I come back, I will definitely come here again. Thanks Adam
