Noisy hotel. Woken up two nights in a row. Needs updates in some areas. Staff was great. But no phones or way to contact them is not the best. Leaves it very hands off to your visits. I think next time I’ll just book with a more well know place just for updated room features.

The Brandywine was just fine. Friendly staff, decent complimentary breakfast, clean and convenient. Expedia, however, booked the room for me under false pretense….it was not the room I confirmed. Not a deal breaker but probably will not book through them again.

Fabulous stay
We were here for two nights- we liked the keyless entry/text system for hotel and room. All staffpersons were welcoming and happy to help/answer questions. The beds were very comfortable, and breakfast offered both hot/cold items. Everything very clean and relaxing. Location is key- so close to so many of the PA/DE sites, and coffee shop in front of the hotel was wonderful.

Nice, family run. Needs a few more amenities. No where to hang used towels, so they couldn’t be reused. At the price, water bottles should be in each room each day. Should have 24 hour front desk staff But staff and owner were very nice and helpful.

Great! A definite revisit
What a pleasant surprise. Nicest place we’ve stayed in a while. Very clean, everyone very helpful, not noisy, really pleasant. Warm baked cookies at check in. We will definitely stay there again, we visit Longwood gardens often. This is close by.
