I came here for a Memorial Service and two other adults were there who were part of the family. We came from three different locations. I am very thankful, and I like the location. It did meet my expectations and standards. I did use Lyft often due to being away from the city of Phila. Lyft was very expensive for all the places we went just for the Memorial Services. We did not do the site seems due to focusing on what we came for and not having enough time to visit museums and other attractions We enjoyed the rooftop setting. We had breakfast out there. The sky was lovely and even made the pictures beautiful. The entire place had large windows with great sunlight coming in. The Franklin Bridge was the view. The other buildings' views were great. Finally, I can say it is A place where you can enjoy it. A place where you can transform. A place where you can take terrific pictures on the rooftop and around the building area.

Lots of traffic in the city.

Very clean. Facilities are provided and good. Very impressive roof area.

There is no desk provided. It will be better if a desk and a chair are available for some ad-hoc working needs.

Great location in the historical part of the city. Spacious, clean apartment furnished in a very nice, modern design. The entire building seems still very new. Fully equipped kitchen. Coffee and tea, dishwasher tabs, detergent, kitchen towels, shower gel, shampoo etc provided. Very comfortable bed.

Would have given the place a 10, if it wasn't so noisy. Building is right next to a highway crossing. I am a good sleeper, but needed the provided white noise generator to not get woken up at night. Earplugs are provided. There seems no personnel present. Upon arrival on a Saturday, light bulbs of both bedroom lights were broken and were only replaced 48 hours later (on Monday).

Location was good! Felt safe in the area and easier to find than expected. Facilities was amazing

Wish parking was either included or more specified. Parking was also on the pricier side and we couldn’t move free. For example, had to pay for parking everytime you left so we had to plan out

the property was clean and super convenient to get around. it had amazing views of downtown and the river.

the only draw back is the walls are paper thin so I was able to hear the neighbors music during the day.

I like that it has 2 bathrooms, very comfortable pillows and queen beds in each room (there was also a pull out side in the living room but we didn’t use it). Enough space in the living room for our 2 kids. Kitchen and and bathroom stocked with your basic needs. Plus, there’s a roof top area you can hangout.

No parking.

Great size room, glad there’s everything I need stove, laundry and spacious.

I’m a germaphobe so a deep cleaning would be nice but other than that it’s fine. Wi-Fi sucked thou
