Great hotel, room was clean, bathroom was spotless, it had a min fridge and small microwave hotel was quiet .Right across the street from the trolley system that leads into Philly and the outskirts of Philly which is very convenient, walking distance from a Wawa.

Lovely little independent motel in a nice (safe) neighborhood in Philadelphia. Room was very clean and they were nice about checking in past 1 AM after a late flight. Staff were friendly and quick. Easy walk to the grocery store with plant based options.

Renovated-modern but small room Staff was calling at check-time for us to leave and knocking on door at 2 minutes after check-in as we were about to leave...beware of staff monitoring your check-out time to the minute, not the most customer friendly feature when your packing-up

We have stayed at this property a few times. We enjoy staying here very much! It is usually very quiet. There are plenty of dining options as well as shopping options close by. Comfy beds and plenty of hot water! The property is always very clean! The staff at the front desk are very helpful! We will definitely return!
