Philadelphia

The Theatre of Life - one of my favorite murals in Philly! Mural Arts Philadelphia is the nation's largest public art program and has helped Philadelphia earn the title the "City of  Murals."
My absolute favorite mural in Philly! Look up the Mural Mile online and go in a self-guided walking tour of some of Philly's most popular murals in Center City.
City streets of Philadelphia
Beautiful, building-sized mural near downtown Philadelphia at S Broad and Lombard Streets. This work of art is called "Theater of Life" and was created by Meg Saligman in 2002. It's part of Philly's Mural Arts Program. There are many around the city. Makes a great self-guided walking tour.

I think the hotel is in a great spot, its clean & well taken care of. However the rooms were super small, the valet is way overpriced & the beds are way too soft.
