Clean and comfortable room stocked with essential amenities. Very courteous, informed staff eager to answer questions and provide helpful guidance. Pet friendly was a plus for our 12y, 5lb service dog. A very short stay with a lasting impression that has us eager to return. Thank you.

The location is perfect for a Temple parent. The bed was the worst I have ever slept on. It was clean but a total marshmallow. I felt like I slept in c curve and really had a hard time sleeping at all. The sink did not drain but the water was hot. I was annoyed the ice machine was not working even though the sign was up and you had to take the elevator to the basement to find out the machine was out. It would have been helpful to have an " out of order" sign up. The front desk clerk said I could go next door to the 7/11 and buy a bag which I found not helpful at all. First , they didn't have ice either, and second I paid $200/ nt for 4 nights. It seems like the nice thing to do would be to find the guest a little bit of ice. I am in the hospitality business. The Conwell has the market on location which was perfect. The room was spacious and clean. I will stay again and hopefully bed will be better and ice machine will be working.

The location was very convenient and the staff were helpful. The room was nice but the bed was very uncomfortable - way too soft. There was no place in the bathroom to set toiletries, not even a toothbrush. And there was no full length mirror.

It wasn't easy to find. Right on Temple University campus. Parking is not clearly marked. The hotel is very out dated. Rooms are small. No microwave or refrigerator. The ice machine was broken. The bed was very soft not supportive. The bathroom had no counter. I have never spent $250 to spend a night at a hotel and I expected way more than I got. Would NEVER stay again.

Honest Review - 3.5/5 would probably stay again: I wish the name of the property included a hint that you are literally staying on campus at Temple University! Apparently the neighborhood where Temple is located is the worst/most dangerous in Philly; there’s no reason to mince words it is the hood and it’s not an area you want to venture through when the sun goes down - with that said I grew up in the S. Bronx so I wasn’t bothered by it however some travelers scare easily if this is you I’d go stay elsewhere. There is zero signage indicating where to go or turn and the parking lot is an alleyway that goes behind 2 buildings. Make sure to pay for parking when booking the room as it is limited however I felt my vehicle was safe as there is a campus police office on the corner of the building where the Inn is located. Every time I walked past it there was a cop in there monitoring the security camera feeds and the alley and parking spaces have several cameras. The staff was FANTASTIC! I had to call and the lady that answered was super helpful - very clear and concise with directions. The inside is nice as are the rooms. The room I selected didn’t have a fridge in it and the bed was very soft so if you’re someone that needs a firm bed to sleep on this might be something to consider. I came to Philly for a comedy show, took a Lyft bc parking in the city is insanely pricey.

Room was shabby, linens stained, torn and had long, black hairs in both beds and on the towels. Carpet stained and ceiling damage in the bathroom from an old leak dropping paint flakes on the counter and floor. Front desk girl literally said she didn’t know what to do when I called. For $258 a night, very disappointed.
Long dark hairs on sheets and towels.
Carpet stains.
Sheets stained and torn, hairs in both beds.
Sheet literally had giant tear in it..housekeeping didn’t see a problem with this.
