Nice hotel, modern, good for the price (I paid $144!!! Amazing). Pretty standard room on the nice side. Nice to have the restaurant downstairs and the cute bookstore. Thin walls, I could hear my neighbors talking but for the price I was thrilled. Beautiful grounds on the swarthmore campus.

We were not offered a parking pass nor alerted to the parking at all and ended up inadvertently parked illegally. Wrote the property and they never replied. Bathrooms don’t have circulating fans, which is odd. All that said, it’s clean and the location is great if you can get it on a deal.

We love everything about the Inn! It’s the only place we stay when returning to the area for doctors, etc. The beds are yummy, showers just right, rooms decorated tastefully with artwork from Swarthmore students. This was our first time bringing the dog, and she loved the room, too. In her enthusiasm, she knocked crunchy noodles on the floor. Yikes! Thankfully, housekeeping is VERY understanding! It has been a long time since I walked a dog on campus, and it’s just as enjoyable as I remember. We didn’t have opportunity to dine there this visit, but definitely stop by Broad Table Tavern

Great comfortable stay at a beautifully run and maintained hotel. Great nights sleep. Bar/restaurant was great. Good bartender, i think her name was Zoey? She made a good martini and she was fast and efficient. The lady at the front desk at checkin was very helpful. Sorry forgot her name. And there is free parking!!!

Front desk Staff didn’t even smile and no greeting nor enthusiasm. Just felt like doing their duty. Quoted crazy price hike, 3x the price when we asked for a nights stay. The highlight is the location of the Inn.

Staff was very attentive and professional. The room was spacious and clean. The area had something for everyone. The lone anomoly was the restaurant. Well....a particular entree that was borderline inedible. I sat and ate some lovely appetizers. The wine was commendable. When I ordered dinner to take to the room, it almost ruined my entire stay. The early order of Samosas was heavenly. I can not, in good faith, recommend the Dan Dan Noodles. The presentation alone reeked of low quality fast food.....you know what....this is a review of the hotel. The restaurant is not indicative of how utterly amazing the hotel actually is. I highly recommend this establishment if you are in the general area. You won't find a better lodging outside of Philadelphia.
