The most wonderful hotel. Super lovely lobby with all the plants, nice decor and wonderful host. The room was nice, highly functional, clean, private, and quiet. Beginning to end a wonderful place to stay. I strongly recommend.

Very pleasant small hotel perfectly located for the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Barnes Collection. The rooms are quite serviceable, but small with unnecessarily complicated technology (lights, mirrors with maps in them), and the bed is comfortable (but the pillows were large and hard). There’s not anything around in the way of restaurants, but it’s not too far to better options by bus. For the price, it’s a good choice if you want to visit the nearby cultural attractions.
