Siri's Favorite Place

Havertown

10/10 Excellent

NOT AT ALL WHAT I EXPECTED. I can only blame myself and Expedia, not the hosts. THIS IS A BOARDING HOUSE. YOU ARE RENTING A BEDROOM—EVERYTHING ELSE IS SHARED. I assumed I was getting the place to myself. As it turns out, I only really needed a private bedroom and a place to shower in the morning. I spent the rest of the trip visiting my daughter at college. The hosts were very pleasant. The neighborhood is quiet and nice. Parking is first come, first serve on the street which often meant a long...

Holiday Inn & Suites Philadelphia W - Drexel Hill by IHG

Drexel Hill

10/10 Excellent

We had a great stay at this hotel. The property is clean, well-maintained, and has solid infrastructure. The on-site restaurant and room service were convenient, and the staff was consistently friendly and helpful. Breakfast options varied between buffet and à la carte, which was a nice touch. The only downside was that our stay coincided with prom season, so there was some noise from events taking place nearby. However, this was a minor issue in an otherwise excellent experience. Overall, a...

10/10 Excellent

The bowl was very nice and in a safe secluded area. The room was clean and well furnished. We had a little trouble with the toilet but after letting the front desk know, it was fixed right away. The breakfast was excellent and the man that worked in there was even better. Super friendly and helpful on suggestions on what to do in Philadelpia. We went out one morning and the battery was dead on our rental car and the manager himself came out and got us started. Overall it was a wonderful...

10/10 Excellent

What a great experience. After having a flight cancelled I found myself at the SpringHill suites. Tired and frustrated, I was met with kindness, and a great welcome from Freddie at the front desk. Check in was quick and painless. Additionally, both shuttle drivers I met were extremely kind, especially Quinn. Would highly suggest this hotel to others who may find themselves in the Philadelphia area!

Residence Inn by Marriott Philadelphia Airport

10/10 Excellent

Visiting Philly for daughter's graduation and touring. Center City hotels were too expensive--this was a little farther out from downtown but close to freeway so easy access to UPenn, Center City, Amish country, etc. 15-20 min to downtown. Quiet, you wouldn't know you were near the airport. Great, friendly, courteous,helpful staff! Good breakfasts with variety (we stayed for a week). Clean comfortable well designed rooms. Good mattress, which is something very important to me.

ROOST East Market

Center City

10/10 Excellent

If I could give Roost East Market more than five stars, I would. The entire experience was seamless. The apartment and building were so comfortable. The third floor is basically an extension of the apartment and includes common spaces, a kitchen, pool table, fitness center and outdoor pool. The staff was so helpful and friendly. We were able to store our bikes and they were kind enough to give us a late check out. Overall, a wonderful experience. Would love to stay here again next time we are...
