The staff was super helpful and friendly. Booking my stay was easy. Any questions I had the staff was eager to answer for me. It was a comfortable stay. I also liked the area next to the hotel where you can see the docked boats. I spent some beautiful mornings there for prayer and meditation. When I come back to Philly, I know I am going to stay here again. Thank you !

The room was fine but understand that access is outside and there is no elevator. The outside could use some sprucing up. There is a nice waterfront park next door and good food pretty close by.

I liked the location on the river front. Very easy to find with great parking. The nearby downtown was awesome. Only major issue was no elevator for 2nd floor (patient has significant cardiac condition). No rooms either 2 queen beds was available on the first floor. Building was under construction at the time.
