Cool hidden gem.
Hotel is in a great location. A great launching point wherever you may go. We are a family of 5 and the Armond room, with its multiple levels and spiral staircase was not only hip, but really spacious and practical. The pillows could be better but overall the stay was great and wouldn't hesitate to return.

Exceptionally Glitch In Philly
Exceptional staff... Super friendly, super helpful, and super knowledgeable about the area. The hotel is in a great location with plenty to do and see. Some of the amenities were glitchy though - TV worked intermittently and the AC unit positioned on the wall right above the bed, above your head, made this load screeching noise every time it kicked-on. Would wake you several times a night. Staff and location made it so I would definitely return to this hotel, maybe a different room though.
