Toilet bowl is a little bit dirty. Two times of requests for changing pillows to be non-feathered based, the staff still didn’t get the right ones. At the end, from the pillows being given, we found one pillow is non-feather based, so we used one pillow only. The area around the hotel seems not very pleasant, a few people are on the street appear strange or homeless.

Nice location. Toilet didn’t flush well at all. We mentioned it to the housekeeper, but it wasn’t fixed the next day. Our room was by the elevators, and it was very noisy. I didn’t have good sleep for 2 nights.

Great stay!

The front desk staff was helpful with any questions we had. The hotel's location is convenient to public transportation and a walkable distance from Reading Terminal Market. We were very comfortable in the room and appreciated the room darkening blinds.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Hotel staff were great! Our room has 3 windows that faced a brick wall. No view at all. The shower was awful. Water was either scalding hot or freezing cold. No in between. Awful. We stayed 3 nights. I understand not getting new sheets or towels, but we got nothing. No fresh cups, coffee or bed made. Nothing. Never had that happen in a hotel. Would not stay again.
