Historic Charm
I recently spent a weekend in Philadelphia and stayed at this hotel. Overall - it was a good experience, my only problem being that the rooms felt a little dated. I can appreciate the historic charm of the building, but I tend to prefer something a little more modern. The staff was attentive and friendly and location was convenient.
