Great stay — super centrally located for all things Swarthmore. Call to make sure the elevators are back up and running if that’s important for you.

Overall this property is dated and needs a lot of TLC. Elevator was a mess, furniture was dated, the mattress was worn out and squeaky, hot water took forever to make it to the shower. Not worth the price point they ask.
