2 night stay. Super friendly staff. Never had to wait more than a few seconds to talk to staff. Fast check-in. Room was clean. Towels were soft. Shower had good pressure but didn’t drain very well. Beds were decent. Pillows were awesome. Breakfast was great and the lady that works the breakfast is a joy and you can tell she takes pride in her work. Eggs were great both mornings. Chobani yogurt available. Fruit was fresh (Bananas apples oranges) and tasty. Maids brought extra towels in less than a minute when we asked. Elevator worked and place felt safe and parking lot was clean.

This hotel is nice enough. Staff was friendly and helpful, and the front lobby area is spacious and well appointed. The room was fine - nothing extraordinary, but it had very comfortable beds, pillows, and the bathroom was roomy & clean, with all the basics. It has a pool, but we didn’t use it as the weather was not conducive. Breakfast would have been nice, I’m sure, but I thought I was told it was available until 10:30, when it really went until just 10am. There is no dining or any other stores within walking distance that we saw, but we just ordered a pizza to be delivered to the hotel, and it worked fine. Overall, it’s nice enough when you’re in a pinch!

The breakfast was very good and convenient lasted until like 10am. Had a lot of amenities; ice machine, fitness center, pool and a very affordable bending machine. Only thing i didnt like is the location there isnt much around it other than that very solid place to rest your head.

Dirty linen, bad smell and limited options for breakfast. Room needs to be upgraded or updated with current bathrooms accessories. Theirs rate does not reflect the the service and room offered. Looks more like a budget hotel/ long term stays... like a motel.

The first room we had needed to be changed. There were some loud exhaust fans in the hallways because an adjacent room was being painted and the smell of paint in our room was significant. Room was quickly moved without issue. The next room we got has spots of mold and mildew scattered along the ceiling. Didn't notice until the last night we stayed. Let the staff know on our way out, but it was a little disappointing overall

What a pleasant surprise! While the property is rated well, I was a little unsure when we pulled up since the outside appeared as if it was an older building. It was an older building but has been updated. Decor is a bit on the darker side, but our room was super clean! I'm very picky about that and was really happy with how clean the room was. And then there was breakfast...amazing! Lots of options and delicious. Will definitely stay here again.

Upon arrival I was disappointed by the area, there is nothing close by. Lobby area was great, staff friendly and helpful. Our room smelled weird, stinky and musty, it’s a non smoking room but smelled like smoke to me. We were right next to the ice machine which was loud at all hours of the day and night. The fridge made a weird high pitched noise and the shower head was awful.

The place was clean and the people were very helpful and friendly. The bed was overly firm and the pillows were very bouncy foam, uncomfortable for me. The shower was clean but the water pressure was pitiful. We booked quickly as a result of a cancelled flight and Expedia said this hotel was only 3 miles from the airport. (The closest of all). This was only true as the crow flies. There was 20 mile trip around the river to get there so it cost us much more time and money than we had expected.

Overall, I would say that this is a decent place to stay if you’re in a pinch. It was far overpriced for the quality of service and room we were given. The building is quite dated and the halls are dark. The lighting is poor, so I definitely would have felt unsafe if I had been travelling alone. The room itself was clean and the bed was quite comfortable. If you only need to stay for a night, then this isn’t a bad option, but they definitely overcharged us for this stay. If I could do it over I definitely would have paid more and opted to stay somewhere less ominous.

The staff at the front desk was very helpful and friendly. Chase, who was new, had patience and was communicative while we waited to check in and check out. He thanked us for our wait (even though it was not long). We felt very comfortable staying there. Our son was having some tummy issues in the morning and the hostess for breakfast even gave us a banana before breakfast opened. Would definitely stay again!

I would like to commend the staff for their commitment to great service. Following our stay, we left something of sentimental value in our room and we were already in commute home so there was no way we could return to retrieve it. After contacting the staff, they quickly assisted us with ensuring we retrieved this item! Can you say amazing? I appreciate the time they took to do this and their commitment to providing great service! Thank you again! Also, the breakfast was a bonus. Overall great service.

Don’t let the hotel name with Philadelphia in it fool you. Hotels.com might say it’s 3.5 miles from the airport. It is actually almost 20 miles. The hotel is on the complete opposite side of the river located in New Jersey. Unfortunately for us, it was listed as the closest available after a canceled late night flight. After booking and a $90 uber, you can find a MUCH better choice closer to the airport.
