We really wanted to like this hotel but were very dissapointed and surprised Hilton would put thier name on it. The lobby is actually very nice but thats it. Rooms need a complete renovation. The carpet is dirty, doors are chipping, furniture is dilapidated. They ran put of most breakfast foods at 9:15 when breakfast ened at 10 am :(. The indoor heated pool was cold too. A positive was that it was quite at night though.

It is acceptable for this room price, I recommend to have more varieties with the breakfast, maybe you can charge a symbolical money to customers, to me it really doesn't matter.

Rude front desk staff on a power trip. Hotel room door was very difficult to open/defective and unsafe in an emergency. Room ceiling and ceiling fan was absolutely disgusting - dust hanging off blades - unsanitary. Card readers in elevator can take a while to work.

We like the xonvenience of a kitchen and that is walkable distance to the uni. We wanted to use the pool but went by the pool twice during the hours of operation and it was locked. We went and let front desk know we wanted to ise it and they never unlocked the door. Other than not being able to use the pool we liked it and would stay there again.

We stayed for one night while visiting Philadelphia. The hotel was fine for a quick visit, but we were disappointed to find the hot tub was completely cold in the morning (as was the pool), and the breakfast finished early, before we had a chance to grab anything. Our kids love a hot tub and pool and this is always a factor in us choosing a hotel, so overall this was a letdown. Bed was comfy and room was clean.
