The room itself was pretty good & clean. There was some kind of remodel going on and a huge roll off dumpster was positioned very close to the hotel on NW corner below our room, it was filled to the rim with wood & huge amounts of cardboard. The area all around it was littered with the same, and absolute eyesore mess! It never was taken away while we stayed 3 nights.
At approx. 3am on our third night I hear a chainsaw running outside (LOUD!) and once fully awake went to raise the shade to see firefighters everywhere tending a dumpster/decking fire that very easily could have burnt my teen son and I alive if they had responded any later.
Luckily we weren't evacuated but the room smelled of smoke and needless to say our sleep was minimal.
Later that morning around 9am before check out I raised the shade about 12 inches to get some natural light in the room while my son still slept. As I was lying on the bed looking at my phone, a black guy crouched by the window peeping in, shading/cupping his eyes to see inside. He ran off when I jumped up. CREEPY AF!!! I was definitely rattled.
The front desk acted like the fire was just another day in Philly, very flippant. I didn't even mention the creeper after that response, didn't feel like they gave a care.
We dealt with three different people in the office during our stay and not one of them seemed to have a grasp on the English language, TERRIBLE communication skills.
I won't be staying again. Beware.
