6/10 Good
20 Jan 2025
Totally reasonable for the price
The room was warm and comfortable while it was freezing outside. There’s a small grocery store only a block away and several restaurants and food trucks near the Temple University campus (although its cheaper to cook in your room). My only complaint is that the people upstairs were very loud, often late into the night. They would play music loudly and come stomping down the stairs or bicker with each other in the hallway. I’m not too bothered personally, but it’s something to consider for light sleepers. I’m also not sure if these people were guests or permanent residents. The wifi dips in and out every couple minutes. Also, I felt that my room needed a bit more detailed spot cleaning but I didn’t really mind. I saw some complaints that the neighborhood is sketchy, but if you ask me, those complaints are most certainly from a position of privilege and prejudice. Philadelphia is a big, old city. Not every neighborhood is totally remodeled or given proper care by the city- that’s just how it is. There may be a lot of trash/ litter in the surrounding area, but this property is clean and there is nothing sketchy going on. I never felt like I was in danger. Period.
