The room was extremely comfortable and spacious, and - unlike many hotel rooms - was very well lit, with a comfortable seating area. The beds was one of the most comfortable beds that I have ever slept in. I almost didn't want to get out of bed to go see the city. The location is very good, close to the Mutter Museum and a 5 minute drive to the best cheesesteaks in the city (Jim's steaks). Walnut Street shopping is just a short block away, and there are many excellent restaurants and cafes well within walking distance. The staff at the front desk were fine, efficient if not friendly.
