Roosevelt Inn Motel - Page 1

I live in western PA and found myself needing to stay over in Philly for the night. The Roosevelt seemed to be a good deal - adequate parking, wifi, etc. Though a bit concerned due to the web reviews, I found that the room and bathroom were clean, the TV new, the bed comfortable and the staff friendly. In short, a nice stay at quite a reasonable price. I will most definitely stay there again.

My husband and three small children checked into this hotel and me first impression walking in the front door was "This is bad." The attendant was behind glass, the lobby stunk and there weren’t even chairs or anything in the lobby for the guests. After getting to our room I was even more disgusted. The carpet was dirty and wet, there were holes in the ceiling and in the curtains and there was no blankets on the beds; we did however find blankets in the dresser after the front of the drawer fell off. The beds were terrible and I felt like if I used the shower I’d be dirtier than I was before I got in. The AC also did not work and June in Philly is not the place to be without AC. in the morning I went to get something to drink from the vending machines with my daughter only to be asked by them what was in that white box, they were condoms, right next to the M&M's. We checked out that morning, our stay that was supposed to last 9 days was a 10hr event. This is not a place for families, or anyone who would like to sleep in a clean, comfortable bed.
