Pros:

The staff was very polite & helpful. The rooms were exceptionally cleaned. The hot breakfast was a delicious bonus. We love penns Landing and staying at the Holiday Inn express is our go to place. We didn't want to leave. 🤩

Cons:

The $39 parking charge was the only thing that should be changed. Parking should be free, but that's philly for ya! 🗑

If it were not for a super noisy night sleep and a tiny bathroom, the stay would have been good.
Pros:

Location, room itself, and breakfast were good, thank you.

Cons:

The room window faced the highway, and unfortunately, the road noise was excessive. While we are used to city living, it sounded as though the window wasn't properly sealed or insulated. It made it difficult to sleep, even for city dwellers.

Décevant car très bruyant
Pros:

Quelle déception, un hôtel à proximité des grands axes de circulation avec une insonorisation médiocre et en plus pas du tout bien situé car 30 minutes à pied d’indépendance hall et 50min de l’hôtel de ville

Cons:

L’insonorisation/changer les fenêtres et portes de chambres
