The front desk dropped the ball on our wake up call and missed it. Caused us a lot of problems. Our room was too warm. No individual controls. Very Bad. Food and food service was excellent. Parking was terrible and difficult to use. I will not recommend!

Philly Stay
Check-in was friendly and prompt. Our room was very nice and clean. Not much for breakfast so we ended up walking to the Reading Terminal. Only issue I had was I only used my credit card for check-in at this hotel, no other place. 3 hours later I received notification that my card was used to order pizza for $60.71. I had to call my credit card and cancel it leaving me without my credit card for the remainder of my trip.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Room was incredibly small. Bathroom was the size a phone booth. The building is very old and is a shock if one is used to modern chain hotels. For example, the bathroom was tiled in tiny mosaic beige textured tiles that look dirty even though they are likely not. Having said that, the room was clean and the towels thick. TV did not work. Elevator smelled of oil and broke while I was there.
