Hotel was right on campus across from the library. Great place to stay if visiting Temple campus. The student run coffee shop attached to the hotel was convenient.

This is a very convenient stay if visiting someone at Temple U. We have already booked another stay in the not-too-distant future. The facility looked to be clean, but when I wiped something off of the edge of the bathroom floor, it ended up being dirtier than I had expected. I did not feel uncomfortable staying there, even though wild wood roaches do live just outside. The bed was too soft, which was a little rough on the back, but they are very generous with pillows and even had an extra pillow and warm blanket in the closet. I liked that the bathroom was very roomy and that there was a desk area separate from the little table and chairs. The convenience of being able to park out back is the best part.

Enjoyed my stay here. Very convenient since my son is a new Temple student. Excellent location. I've stayed here twice. The second time the water in the shower drained slow. Only bad thing in the two stays. Would stay again. I reserved a parking space the last stay, however, my space was still occupied. The reserved parking needs a lot of work. Otherwise, I enjoyed my stay here.

Bring an Air-mattress if you are over 4 ppl!
Hotel was nice and clean but difficult to find! Parking was full by the time we arrived so we had to arrive on foot. It is inside of the university campus. Street parking was pretty close though. Although hotels.com allowed us to book 5 people, there was nowhere for the 5th person to sleep and after waiting at the desk at 10pm for over 20 minutes to see if there was a cot, I gave up and had to drive to Walmart since it was closing soon (no one was at the desk). I called from the road and eventually got someone the desk who told me there were no more cots available. I let them know I was already enroute to Walmart and they commented that I am not the first to have to make that journey/purchase. I barely made it to Walmart by closing. On a positive note, there is tons of university security wandering outside the hotel which made me feel safe.

Parking! Most important, on site parking! Clean and comfortable. Front desk staff always friendly. 711 next door. Offers the best views of Temple University. The Conwell is my go to spot when in Philly. Beds a bit too soft for me but the great shower makes up for that.

It's a great place and you cannot beat the location if you're visiting Temple. The room was very clean and spacious with no strong cleaner smells, etc. A fridge would have been nice, but we could have requested one, which I didn't know until after. My only complaint--many folks are serious about their coffee. Crappy powdered creamer should not be a thing in a decent hotel. If you're going to provide coffee in the room (as you should!), give the little cups of real half-n-half.

It’s hard to find. The Uber was unable to find the place and ended up dropping me off near the parking area. Then, I had to walk around to find the place. Additionally, feeling unsafe walking around that area, which was quite far away from the center. There were no restaurant nearby, just 7/11 next door. However, the place was very clean, and the bed was comfortable enough to fall asleep.

Although the room was clean and nice, the bed was very, very soft. The air conditioning blew very hard and cold. My husband’s head was cold, but then the rest our bodies were warm because we had to stay under the covers. I was disappointed in the air conditioner. The bathroom was fine, but the toilet was too low and there were not enough shelves. The shower head was excellent.

Safe and convenient especially when visiting Temple University. On site parking is a plus! Rooms are clean and spacious. Easy to grab an Uber or Lyft and a quick walk to the subway. The Conwell sits right on the TU campus and overlooks the prettiest area. 711 is next door for a quick snack but coffee and tea are always available in the lobby.

We stayed for Temple orientation. Can't beat location! Parking was easy and cheap and they even let us extend the time! The lobby has a nice area for tea and coffee. The room was huge. It was very clean. Staff was nice, I believe a student. The room needs update/renovation, but there were enough other pluses that I would say again for the cost and convenience to our new college for my son! Go Owls!
