8/10 Good

Room wasn’t cleaned one day out of four. There was a problem with the parking discount offered by the hotel at a parking facility across the street that was not resolved. Hotel was under staffed for the number of guests staying there.

A gem situated right in the middle of historical, cultural, dining and medical resources. Very walkable area from this welcoming and pristine Boutique hotel. Bonus is the parking garage directly across the street .
Pendleton Jane, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

My teen daughter and I stayed here for one night while traveling around PA, NJ and NY. This place is so cute. When we first got here we were greeted and given a quick tour including some history about the house and how it came to be a hotel. The room was very well appointed with a full, updated bathroom. A “continental breakfast” was included which consisted of coffee, juice and fresh fruit, cereal, homemade muffins and coffee cake. The hotel is with 5 minutes walking distance to Independence Hall, and a 20 minute walk to Reading Terminal. Lots of great places to eat around within walking distance. While the hotel offered a discount for overnight parking at a garage across the street, it was still over $32 for one night. All in all I would highly recommend this cute little place as an alternative to the larger (and more expensive) hotels.
Susan, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Good location. Breakfast buffet is OK, but skimpy. Room lacked a closet. Can't control room temperature; it's controlled by the hotel and was too cold.

Jacqueline, 1-night trip
