This hotel is 4 blocks from the 40th street and Market subway stop which made it very easy to get around the city. There are plenty of amenities ( eg: restaurants and stores) nearby as the hotel sits on the end of the U Penn campus. The morning buffet breakfast was a great perk and the gym was great.
