Wow, what a great job this hotel had done! I stayed here several years ago and I'm so glad I gave them a second chance. The renovation looks terrific! I don't know where they found their new staff, but everyone I encountered was friendly, courteous, well informed and some pretty funny. They did a very good job of keeping a smile on my face.
They re-did the sleeping rooms which are much brighter, clean and fresh. The marble bathroom looks great. I heard they're getting all new flat screen TV's in the rooms too. .
I almost fell to the floor when I went down the next morning to use the fitness center. It looks like a Bally's, TV's on the treadmills, flatscreen's, free weights, new equipment and its twice the size as it was last time I was there.
I was hesitant to try and order a latte at their cafe, since they serve Starbucks, thinking it would definitely not taste right. Well I was wrong, I tried their special (Chocolate Carmel Late) and it was fantastic.
I'll definitely stay here anytime I'm in Philadelphia. GREAT JOB!
