"First impression was that it was an older hotel but lobby and rooms were clean and comfortable. The location was ideal. 7 min walk to Reading market. 4 minute walk to subway system. Within 15- 20 minute walk you can find lots of great restaurants and bars. I like that there was a small bar (literally 4 chairs and around a small wooden bar and several other seats) available inside the hotel where my son and I enjoyed a nightcap. There were 3 elevators and rarely did I wait longer than 30 seconds even though I stayed over a weekend.
Staff was friendly and courteous. Andrew was particularly kind and attentive...but all clerks and each concierge were awesome.
The room had a nice air conditioner that kept room very cool (thermostatcontrolled) . I loved that each queen bed had 4 large pillows. Bed was very comfortable...not to soft. Bathroom shower head was newer and I feel bathroom in general had been renovated in past year or 2.
Breakfast was very satisfactory. No complaints... dark coffee was good, not bitter but full of flavor.
My only complaint was that I asked the front desk (after staying three nights) to send someone in to clean the room...it didn't happen before we left the next day. I did receive towels and washcloths when requested without any delay so that was nice.
In conclusion I would recommend this hotel based on its convenient location, friendly staff, and clean comfortable rooms at the price point offered. Definitely a good value and a pleasant stay."
