We were not satisfied. It was a very good location, but when we smelled cigarette smoke and had a very noisy neighbort at 11pm, we were told to come down to get another room. We were already in bed.

Anything less than an immaculately clean room is unacceptable, and I’m so sorry that yours wasn’t up to snuff. Please accept my apologies and give me the chance to make it up to you. If your travel plans bring you back to Philadelphia any time soon, I’d like to show you what makes us a favorite among travelers to our city. You can reach me directly at the hotel.

In the age of COVID this wasn’t my favorite stay. Although there were signs indicating that masks were needed it seemed like no one was actually enforcing this rule with guests. Our room was also very very smoky even though we booked a non smoking room. Won’t be coming back until the pandemic is over.
