Pros:

EXTREMELY small rooms, no storage in the bedroom or bathroom for luggage or toiletries. My husband and I both have bruises from squeezing past the bed. The shower was aesthetically pleasing but not practical.

I was also under the impression that I was booking a hotel not an airbnb. We wanted to drop our bags off before check-in but there isn’t a front desk.

Pros:

The idea of a simple place to stay where you don't need a key, just a code is good. Execution was poor. Code to get into my room was sent to the wrong phone. Shower only had about 2 minutes of hot water. The toilet really didn't need to be remote operated.

Smart Use of Space.
Pros:

Loved this small space. Warm tile bathroom, comfy bed, immersed in the history of the space. Clever use of small space: hooks and shelves and tiny desks when you need them. Smart. Beautiful.

The person in the phone was amazing and very helpful. The accommodations could’ve been nicer. Bathroom and room had a lot of wear and very bad lighting

Being able to text with the front desk staff about our needs made it really easy to communicate before arrival and when we were not physically at the hotel!

Pros:

Overall, I had an amazing stay! If you're looking for a place right in the city center of Philadelphia--this is perfect for you! The hotel and restaurant are newly remodeled and the room I had was absolutely beautiful! The bathroom was state of the art and the bed was very comfy. It also had a new record player, wifi, and nice flat screen tv. The restaurant also had GREAT food! A special thanks to Jhene (Manager), Gregory (Bartender), and Brian (Owner) for making my stay truly enjoyable. I will definitely come back!
