1. The pros:- GREAT location-- 2 blocks from Betsy Ross' house, the visitor's center and a Starbucks- Good size room, nice easy chair, comfortable bed, good shower, microwave, and fridge- Clean- Good wifi- Pleasant staffThe cons:- Older hotel -- somewhat faded around the edges if you like new- The heat smelled very musty, but didn't really need it so turned it off- Ladies -- bring your own hair dryer.

3. Our room was spotless and did not have that 'hotel' smell; the beds, although small (double), were so comfortable.
