We received an "upgrade" upon checking in. Good on the sq feet. 5th floor, view of A/C units in next building. No privacy doors on bathroom. poor room lighting. The food options are just terrible. You can't get standard American food. We stayed there a long time ago. Had to go back because the Rittenhouse was booked. This place is just not for us. All 4 treadmill TV's were broken. Do I need to say more?

We would like to give a shout out to our waiter during breakfast. His name is Michael and he was amazing. It was so great chatting with him in French and getting to know him. He made us feel so welcomed. We will definitely go back there because of him. He was friendly and approachable. Thank you, Michael for your hospitality.

One of the best hotels I ever stayed in. I would give them 10 stars, if possible. Nothing was less than perfect. Very Clean facility, very friendly staff everywhere, room was beautiful with so many details added to it, and they have a great restaurant/bar. I will recommend it for anyone that is visiting the area.

Here's what i found disappointing: when i checked out at the front desk, no one thanked me for staying there. I received a "safe travels," but not a word of thanks for choosing to spend my money at that hotel. I find that rude. Common courtesy matters. Otherwise, it's a very good hotel.
