The place was very comfortable and clean. Great communication with management. Only problem was the elevator was broken. Carrying heavy bags up and down the stairs was very difficult.

We liked our stay very much. Our room was spacious and clean. The neighborhood is excellent and walkable, with a lot of shops and restaurants. The lack of any staff present was frustrating at times as there were login issues with the app at check in and I had to call customer service to get our building entry code.

This property is not located in safe neighborhoods of Philadelphia and also does not show up on the GPS correctly. Expedia should refrain from hosting such properties

The building itself was secure and easy to find. I had no issues accessing the building. The room was clean and nice, and it was a short uber to just about anything I wanted to do!

Fully automated check-in and property access make arrival easy. Please replace keypad on front door. Numbers are worn off and Bluetooth electronic key doesn't work. Backlit version would be best.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Room directly above noisy bar. I have stayed here several times and those days were fine, but this time my room is directly above a bar, and the floor is thumping. All I want from a hotel is a quiet room, and if you stay here, you risk not getting that.

Everything was quiet good, very clean, all you need was in the room, I just didn´t know that it is a self-check-in-hotel. They should have mentioned it at the booking

Vigny

The room was spacious for 3 people and it was clean. I like how we had access to more toiletries if needed and has access to a filtered water machine. I really like the location of the hotel as there are many options for food within walking distance. The hotel is located at a very prime location in Queens Village. I would definitely stay here again if I visit Philly again!
