1. * The rooms are very nice, with comfy beds, firm pillows, a microwave and refrigerator.

"Hotel is lovely, but the neighborhood is a bit scary at night. " Read full review on TripAdvisor 2/19/2010 Vote

2. Loved the pillows.

3. The pillows were long and thin, which don't usually work for me, but I doubled up and made it work.

"The Independent was amazing! " Read full review on TripAdvisor 3/19/2012 Vote

4. The furniture was slightly low-end (for example, a tiger-striped rug, glass-topped tables, a fur throw-pillow on the bed, and some of the lighting was the old-style florescent).

"Needs a little more attention to detail, but the price was appropriate. " Read full review on TripAdvisor 10/16/2009 Vote

5. There were no extra pillows for the sofa bed and they were requested as we left to walk around Philly.

"I have no idea how this property got to be rated #1 " Read full review on TripAdvisor 7/11/2009 Vote

6. I also wasn't a fan (no pun intended) of the comforter as it felt kind of gross to me (plus the multiple hairs), and the pillows were eh.
