"Service could be vastly improved, Room didn't feel that Clean " Read full review on TripAdvisor 5/19/2012 Vote

2. I wouldn't have a problem staying here again, but if you're site-seeing it is a bit of a walk to Independence Hall.

"Good for the Price " Read full review on TripAdvisor 2/13/2012 Vote

3. That being said, there were some problems: the free buffet breakfast served at the attached TGI Friday's was a complete zoo, and if you don't get there early it's crowded, dirty and there may be no tables, forks, spoons, cups or plates available; there was some kind of construction or renovation going on in the room either above or next door, and during the day you could hear it; on-site parking is overpriced at $44/day; you can wait a long time for the elevators; housekeeping seems to be understaffed since they didn't get to our room the first night we were there.

5. The parking / cab pick-up area is very cramped and difficult to maneuver, but I imagine that is a common problem for downtown hotels.

8. i did have a problem when I initially checked in, and Richard from the front desk took care of it immediately for me.

9. I think the only problem that I had staying here was the valet parking - It's pretty expensive $42 a day after tax but you can park the car yourself somewhere very close behind the hotel for chipper.
