a nice hotel in a nice location. a large room, nice pool
Maintenance was poor. the whirlpool didn't work properly, the water fountain in the fitness center didn't work, the stream of water in the shower was extremely weak and the hot water was barely enough for two people
Very central
All was good
The room and furnishing were comfortable and the kitchen and bathroom were clean. My view was lovely although I would not have expected a particular view. The front desk staff and the valet service were exceptional.
I did not realize that my room was not freshened daily, or at all. I had no trash pickup or towel refresh. I had no coffee refresh. When I asked about it as I checked out, I was told I needed to call for towels and coffee. Also, that it was my responsibility to bundle the trash and put it outside my door. There was no signage in the room about all of this neither was I informed of the procedures upon check in. Frankly, I would never have thought that the trash, coffee refresh, towel refresh were my responsibility. The strange thing was that I did receive partial service on the first two days of my stay. Very poor communication. Also, my key card had issues working several times and I noticed that other guests had the same problem. One more item, when I took a fork out of the drawer it was dirty. All the forks were dirty and looked like they were used and just returned to the drawer.
Hot water was great.
Damaged floor tiles in bathroom.
Breakfast options were very good. Staff were friendly and helpful.
There are errors in the Booking.com listing. Valet parking is $45/night, not $42/night. There is no shuttle service to the university. This was a major issue for us, as we were receiving treatment at the UPenn Hospital. Our biggest compliant is that the dishes and silverware in our room were filthy. We had to wash them before we could use them.
