Located downtown and surrounded by the high rises *

Enlarge letters A A Downsize letters A A

The hotel does not seem comparable with those of the chain in Europe. In Philadelphia, it is located in a high-rise, among other Bürotürme. Moreover, it is to one side of a large multi-storey car park, which is a rooftop air conditioning. Overall, the background noise was very urban. The furniture and fixtures in the bathroom are a bit getting old, but satisfactory clean and functional. We ate at the hotel restaurant for the evening and were not convinced of the food. The investors we can but, because it is designed in the style of an English inn reared and I would have expected nothing else. For breakfast we were in a nearby Café former.
