6. the only place we had to drive to was the phillies game :-) also - parking is free on the street between 10 pm and 8 am - so if you are an early riser that is a good option (we did that one night).

8. Honestly, I would have rather stayed at the Sofitel across the street, which I found to be a lot more comfortable, refined and understated (stayed there three months earlier).

9. I was surprised how quiet it was, no noise from the street, always helps to be on the highest floor.

10. I would have liked more of a open city view than what we received (obstructed by buildings) but we still liked being able to see the street and plenty of natural sunlight.
