Club Quarters Hotel Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia

8/10 Good

"Good property and service but small rooms"

4211 Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean, nice"

Motto by Hilton Philadelphia Rittenhouse Square

10/10 Excellent

"This is the second time I have stayed at the Moto. The staff is friendly, helpful and available. My room was very clean with sufficient amenities. As we are in the inner city, the morning noise outside is more than I am accustomed in my neighborhood, but it is not overwhelming. Happy hour at the bar was extended to the dinner time for me and the food, Mexican style was great. I would always stay at the Moto when I am downtown Philadelphia."

Charming 1-bedroom apartment with AC in lively Philadelphia / a beautiful view.

10/10 Excellent

"The space was overall perfect. Not too small, not too big. It was just right. Communication was smooth. I was able to enter the space asap from the moment our got out of my uber. I honestly wouldn’t mind staying here again."

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place"

Patio Paradise Central City 2BR Philly

8/10 Good

"It wasn't apparent from the photos, but this unit was partially in the basement of the building, which was great at night, we didn't hear anything coming from outside, but the kitchen and common area had no windows so it's a little dark. There is no Kitchen table or common area with a TV, couch, etc. If you're not planning on cooking for yourself, it's probably fine. Beds were comfortable, and each room had it's own bathroom with a shower. Everything seemed pretty clean. It's bare-bones, but comfortable enough. I was concerned about parking, but had no issues getting a spot at the end of the night."

Storehouse Lofts

10/10 Excellent

"Super convenient area with a aldis walking distance . Free on site parking was awesome for this city . Parking garage is open to the public and very dark so that was a little sketchy . But the room was awesome"

3-Story Philly Townhouse 2 Mi to University City!

10/10 Excellent

"The inside of the home was amazingly great. I did learn a new word from my son regarding the neighborhood though, gentrification. We arrived after dark and the neighborhood/ Street seemed a little scary. We met Steve, the neighbor, and got to know him over our 3 night stay. His presence probably keeps the street safe. There is a police station across the way as well. We did walk to the university, the grocery, the bagel store and the donut shop and felt safe. Just saying don't judge the place by the first impression as you approach."

BrotherlyLove—Charming 2-bedroom house with WiFi, AC in lovely Philadelphia

10/10 Excellent

"Nice clean place made for a pleasant stay! It had enough room and amenities for what we needed. It was in a rough inner city neighborhood but the place was very nice. However we tried using the oven a couple times and it didn’t reach a temp over 200 degrees. The stove was nice and used it with no issues and we were able to cook. The front steps need a hand rail as we had some trouble getting up and down the stairs. But other than that we loved it and was perfect for what we needed with our 2 kids. Parking was a little difficult with it being only street parking but we managed to get a spot not too far away."
