Sonesta Select Philadelphia Airport
"Very clean, comfortable hotel with one-bedroom suites. Pretty and well maintained. It offers limited bar food but, surprisingly, no bar (no liquor license). We went to Ruby Tuesday’s next door for dinner - very meh. Anyway, hotel and staff are great but find dinner elsewhere. Also quite easy access ..."

"Professional, helpful staff. However the entire property smelled like cigarette smoke. Throughout the common areas and the room. It was awful. The furniture in the lobby is in dire need of steam cleaning. The property needs to be cleaned thoroughly - lots of potential."
