I like the location of the hotel, and parking was very convenient. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. I was a little disappointed that the restaurant wasn't open on Sunday the day we checked in.

Stayed here to be a tourist for a few days. This property is in a great spot- close to many points of interest and plenty of restaurants . The front desk staff were all very friendly , helpful and always ready to assist with any needs you may have . The size of the room was pretty small, however this did not bother us as we only were in the room to sleep. Left early each day and got back to the room about 9pm. Would stay here again for our next visit to the city.

Good value. Room is basic but clean and functional. Was missing the tv remote and the two headboard lamps didn’t work when I arrived, but engineering came quickly to remedy that. Room is small - no dresser or desk or chair.

The property was easy to get to from the highway; it is easy to walk about the city with many restaurants and eating establishments close by. The staff was courteous and helpful. I was in Philadelphia for a concert, so we spent just one night at the hotel. The property does not have its own parking, so we were told to park at the garage across the street. It was $50 for the night. I found that quite expensive. I travel a lot, and many hotels in a similar situation have an understanding where, with the proper validation, guests can get a discount.

The hotel was clean and comfortable, the room needed a chair or two and there was not actual closet. The rooftop bar attracts a large young (loud) crowd from outside the hotel so not a great option to just chill and enjoy the area.

Parking is limited to paid off site parking. So if you want to leave you get charged every time an average of $35-50.
