Philadelphia Marriott Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"It was perfect"

Homewood Suites by Hilton University City

8/10 Good

"The property was clean and was in a great location. The staff was excellent!!! The big problem was"

Aloft by Marriott Philadelphia Downtown

8/10 Good

"Overall, a very enjoyable stay. Had some issues with my reservation, but that was on Expedias side. The staff were very nice. And because of all the issues that I had they gave me a voucher for the bar for one drink, which I appreciated. The only thing I will say is the bed had a few small stains here and there, and I found some hair in them both as well."

Element by Marriott Philadelphia Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"This place was the best. Super friendly desk staff, really nice room with incredible views, and the breakfast helped nurse my hangover."

The Study at University City

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, service and the rooms are perfectly appointed. I have stayed here before and plan to come back."

Patio Paradise Central City 2BR Philly

8/10 Good

"It wasn't apparent from the photos, but this unit was partially in the basement of the building, which was great at night, we didn't hear anything coming from outside, but the kitchen and common area had no windows so it's a little dark. There is no Kitchen table or common area with a TV, couch, etc. If you're not planning on cooking for yourself, it's probably fine. Beds were comfortable, and each room had it's own bathroom with a shower. Everything seemed pretty clean. It's bare-bones, but comfortable enough. I was concerned about parking, but had no issues getting a spot at the end of the night."

Storehouse Lofts

10/10 Excellent

"Super convenient area with a aldis walking distance . Free on site parking was awesome for this city . Parking garage is open to the public and very dark so that was a little sketchy . But the room was awesome"
