Club Quarters Hotel Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia
Clean room. Comfortable beds. Friendly staff. Nice lobby area with free coffee (machine) and water dispenser. Nespresso coffee machine in the room makes great coffee! I've stayed at Club Quarters Rittenhouse a few times, and they're consistently pleasant and affordable.

The Windsor Suites
Great location, very spacious, very nice staff. Water pressure was quite low and AC not working in April despite 80F weather. Kitchen could be better equipped.
