The free local shuttle makes getting around simple, and the late check-out (12:00 PM) is a gift if you were out dancing till dawn.

Food and Drink Options

You won’t go hungry here. Every stay includes a free hot breakfast—ideal after a late night out—and on select evenings, the hotel offers a complimentary dinner with drinks. While there’s no full restaurant on-site, each suite has a full kitchen for DIY bites, and plenty of local eateries are just steps away on Walnut Street. Bonus: there’s a grocery store nearby if you want to stock up.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is more on the relaxed side, you’re not far from the fun. Bars and lounges around University City and downtown Philly are just a quick Uber ride away. It’s easy to enjoy the scene and still return to a peaceful room for the night.

What People Say

Guests consistently praise the friendly staff, clean and spacious rooms, and the convenience of having a kitchen in every suite. The free breakfast and occasional free dinner are a hit with budget-minded travelers, and travelers love the easy access to both universities and downtown venues.

Areas for Improvement

The vibe is more “extended stay” than luxury, so don’t expect flashy décor or late-night bar service. Some guests mention that the neighborhood quiets down early, which is great for rest—but not so much if you're looking to party nearby.

The Bottom Line

A smart, spacious, and quiet base for concert-goers who want comfort, a little extra room, and easy access to Philly’s music scene.
