Nice stay for weekend in Philadelphia. Music from club next door was loud until midnight one night. Breakfast was a little skimpy. Also parking was a bit of an issue. Neighborhood was great with a lot to do.

Lovely place in very convenient location. Gorgeous rooms. Since our last stay: Bar entrance has moved next door. Breakfast has moved upstairs. Preferred the ambiance downstairs, and seemed like a little less selection, but still very good.
