Great hotel!
We stayed here for three nights, during the middle of the week. We knew we wanted to be near the middle of the city/downtown area, and in walking distance to basically everything. To begin with, the parking structure is right next door; was very easy to self-park and bring the ticket with you to the counter. We had requested an early check-in (1:00), if at all possible, and only had to wait about 30 minutes for them to finish preparing the room, which gave us time to walk around a bit in the neighborhood. Everyone at the front desk was friendly and helpful. Actually - all employees of the hotel are friendly and helpful, and are always available to answer any questions. The room was amazing! Corner room, with a view down Broad Street/Avenue of the Arts - directly towards City Hall! Two beds, with a sleeper sofa, desk area, dresser and TV; plenty of room for our family. Everything is very clean and kept up well. We had some appetizers in the bar area; great service (loved Jarrell a/k/a "Big Baby"!!). When we asked, the hotel recommended a few area places for breakfast; they do serve breakfast on the mezzanine level, but we also wanted to try local places also. Our family would stay here again, and would recommend this hotel to anyone and everyone. Trying to figure out a reason to visit Philly again so we can stay here!!
