Of all the places to stay....

The stay was amazing starting when we first entered the property and the welcoming reception we received. We just want to mention the people that made our stay amazing !!! - Marvel, John (dining area), Tia, Malik and Jabra. A friend recommended the Amina to dine - and come to find out - one of the location was in the hotel !! great food and people. However, the weather was a bit cold, but we will return to see the historical sites and will be staying there again !!!

We were exhausted from a long day of travel and Lauren was an angel and let us check in a bit early. Thank you, Lauren! The hallways and rooms were small and quaint, but perfectly clean, updated and comfortable, with everything you need! We walked to Reading Terminal Market, and other great spots. Also very reasonable - Would stay again!

Nightmare + mouse

Lady in the reception wasn’t very welcoming and she was rude at times. Room card didn’t open and she wasn’t happy about it even though it wasn’t my fault the card was damaged! In the end I had to move to a different room as there wasn’t a valid card in the building and she didn’t even apologise To make this stay more enjoyable, I found a mouse in the breakfast area… never again!

Staff was awesome. Parking was more expensive than we expected due to having large vehicle and since we wanted in and out we had to pay for valet. So instead of $25/ day advertised self park we paid $80/ day.
