Front desk tried to charge me an extra $50 to check in early. When I laughed and turned to give the porter my baggage to hold for me, he said ok how about $40 just for you! I couldn’t believe this. You’re extorting me for money to check in early. I told him I would rather roam the streets like a hobo than pay him this ridiculous “fee”. On my reservation I requested a fan for my room. None arrived. I didn’t pursue it any further bc it was only a one night stay. Finally, one of the bar staff was extremely rude to customers. Hard to explain what exactly happened in this review but let’s say I have stayed at this hotel numerous times when I’ve come to Philly and I’ve never encountered this kind of “attitude” from their bar staff before.

The bathroom was great size, but the shower did not drain well and accumulated inches of water. I used the tub to bathe. The food buffet looked beat, but the food items did not taste good. I ended up eating yogurt and Raisin Bran.

The room was clean, the staff were just fine especially the house keeping. Though I did not like the fact that the room service stopped at 10.30 pm. But the biggest complaint I have is about lost and found. I had left a sweater in the cupboard under the tv and told my daughter to contact the hotel and pick it up. Despite many phone calls to the hotel the lost and found never returned her calls, and I was not able to retrieve my sweater. Bad point!
