I booked a room through trip advisor and they gave me 1 bed instead of 2 which was paid for. My guest had to sleep on the floor because they were out of rooms.
The location
Beds are a little small
Decent place. Does feel somewhat run down and dark. Stay here mainly for a low price safe clean place, not for ambiance.
Breakfast and social hour snacks and wine were great perks. Staff was friendly and helpful. Bed was great. Nice walkable neighborhood.
Carpet in the room was very old and did not feel very clean. Shower water pressure was very low. No refrigerator or coffee maker in the room but there was 24 hr hot/cold water and ice available in the first floor.
My wife had stayed here 4 years ago so we knew it was a good, comfortable place to stay in walking distance to about everything. That hasn't changed. It's an old hotel. That may not be to your liking. We're fine with it. The bed was surprisingly comfortable. The AC was quite loud but after some fiddling we managed to turn it's fan down. Everything was clean but a bit tired. The Happy Hour was a nice add. A great chance to mingle with other guests. We'll probably stay there the next time we visit. I'm sure there are nicer hotel rooms in the area but we'll remember sitting outside the Static bar across the street from the Alexander sipping cocktails and watching the street scene way more than the hotel room.
Ubicación excelente, está a un breve paseo a pié de todas las atracciones de Philadelphia. El personal muy amable y atento.
El hotel está antiguo. Moqueta en el suelo. Cama de matrimonio pequeña, habitación ruidosa y calurosa , el aire acondicionado funciona regular. La ducha del baño con cortina y es estrecha.
There was something very quaint and cozy about the old-fashioned vibes of this historic inn. It was nothing fancy or pretentious and that's just what made it special. I had a small room and it had everything I needed. I was there during a record heatwave, so the AC wasn't working so well, but otherwise my room was great. The front desk staff people were very kind and helpful with recommendations for my trip. I especially loved the daily wine and snacks - a free happy hour - which is where I made some new friends who were also staying there (it was during America's big 250th birthday so we were all very excited about seeing the history and fun celebrations). There was only one staff member in the restaurant (during breakfast) who was always a bit grumpy and rude, but apart from him, everyone was very nice and I had an amazing experience during my first trip to Philadelphia. I would 100% recommend staying here again.
Poor AC but it was during an epic heatwave, so I know the old AC was working as hard as it could.
There was one rude and grumpy staff member who worked in the restaurant at breakfast time. He's not a pleasant person and should probably not work in a position where he interacts with customers. He didn't actually even work hard (he just stood around "waiting" for the guests to finish eating their breakfast but then even hours later it looked like he didn't tidy anything up), and most of all, he was just grumpy and rude acting like somehow the hotel guests were slowing him down with his day.
Great location and ambiance. Comfortable room and cozy furniture, warm interior design, friendly service.
The breakfast was amazing. Beds were comfy.
Parking was in a garage that I was told would be validated by the hotel when we left when in fact it was only $10 off so I was stuck with a $90 garage bill that was not planned for :(
Great location and comfy rooms, with kind staff. The breakfast is only continental and there are no fridges in the rooms, but the beds are comfy and the rooms are very clean. There is also a fun little social at night with free wine and snacks.
Fun place to stay and very close to all the historical sites. Sov, the receptionist was extremely helpful and kind.
The staff are lovely in this boutique hotel, and the additional amenities of charcuterie and breakfast make this worthwhile. If you’re looking for a nice spot to take a quick break between your other activities on a Philly trip, I highly recommend this spot. It is centrally located and conveniently located near restaurants, bars, and shops. Cannot recommend this spot more!
Friendly service. Clean room. Location. Price.
Room needed painting.
Amazing building with historical taste!!
Well located, decent breakfast if you have a little bit of fantasy
Where do I begin? From communication with the front staff before arrival to the vibe, cleanliness, and comfort, nothing here would make sense given the price I paid for the stay. Room locks barely work. Dark everywhere and needs at least cosmetic maintenance. What you see in pictures is sort of true except imagine it’s like matching someone on a dating app only to find out they are 20 years older in reality. The hotel is old, tired, and icky in places. AC is loud and makes it very hard to sleep. The curtains are decorative and don’t cover anything beyond the space they are hanging. Carpets are not something that I’d step with my bare foot on. Breakfast staff sprays insects repellent during breakfast almost over your food and fusses over you while the trash can is overflowing and the crumbs are all over the carpet. Water leakage marks on ceilings in the room and the bathroom. Literal dirt at the side of reception desk between the desk and the wall because nobody cared to clean that space ever. Never before have I had the experience where I would try to avoid being at a hotel at all costs.
Autentiškas senovinis pastatas, kuriame įsikūręs viešbutis. Patogus vienvietis kambarys.
Excellent location. Super value for money. Basic but functional. Nice neighborhood to walk around. Good food options in the vicinity. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Coffee available throughout the night was awesome for jetlagged customers.
Coffee unavailable between 5-7am for setting up the breakfast. I feel this is an easy fix, but one that would make a world of difference for jetlagged customers. Breakfast was quite basic. Good selection of bread and yogurt, but the waffle maker didn't work.
