I enjoyed staying at the Alexander Inn in Philadelphia. I'll consider staying there in a repeat visit sometime in the future. The television's brightness level was low and I didn't see any way of changing that. That was the only sub-par aspect of the visit -- not that I was watching much of anything that evening. Thanks for the good visit!

I liked the way the windows in the room could be opened. The room where I stayed had a musty odor. The fresh air made a difference.

This property is where you want to be if you are visiting Philly without a car. We were able to get to all the tourist type areas on foot, and there are loads of great dining options nearby.

This hotel is very close to UPenn hospital, where I needed a procedure. The street seemed quiet at night, interesting restaurants were close by, and excellent coffee shops were scattered around the neighborhood. The staff at the reception desk exuded a welcoming attitude and went out of their way to help. The day we arrived was hot, so they had all the blinds pulled in the reception area and the lounge. This made it seem dark and dreary. The happy hour was underwhelming, with scant offerings of snacks.The continental breakfast was also disappointing. Perhaps the presentation could have been better. With the blinds pulled, we couldn’t see what was there.
