Philadelphia hotellit West Philadelphia

Plussat: Hospitality and comfort. Relaxing oasis

Miinukset: Soft bed but still loved our stay for our daughter’s college move-in in university city

Plussat: Everything! Room, people and food.

Plussat: The breakfast was to die for. Something different every day, from Eggs Benedict to eggs and mushrooms, and always delicious. The house itself was charming, and the owners were very friendly and accommodating. Also ideally located for the University of Pennsylvania, which was where I needed to be. I really enjoyed it, and would definitely stay there again.

Miinukset: It's a house, so the doors aren't necessarily the greatest at blocking out sound. There was a noticeable gap at the bottom of my door, and I could easily hear anyone in the hallway. It didn't bother me, and no one was loud late, but it could be a problem if you're very susceptible to noise. Also, some people might not be comfortable with walking back alone from the university area at night: it's about a mile and tends to be pretty quiet, passing the edge of a cemetery and a park. I have no reason to think it's unsafe, but if such things make you nervous, be aware.

Plussat: Beautiful Victorian home with period furnishings. Breakfast was excellent. Trolley stop literally right out the front door - the trolleys take you straight into downtown.

Miinukset: Walking distance food options a bit limited.

Plussat: The host is the best!! The house is beautiful and the antiques are a jewel!

Plussat: We were greeted like family. The home was magnificent. Full of antiques. The bed and the pillows Were awesome. The breakfast was delicious . What a find .. Definitely will be back

Plussat: The staff, room, food, atmosphere and the house were beyond exquisite. Highly recommend. My stay was phenomenal!

Miinukset: The only thing I didn't like, I had to leave!

Plussat: The house is very historic and beautiful! The hosts were kind, breakfast was delicious, and they even provided us with trolley passes to borrow.

Plussat: not enough choice, especially if you stay for 4 days.

Miinukset: The reception area. If you check in during office hours very little relevent information is divulged by the staff. when th eBoss is available the information is very good

Plussat: The Gables is an amazing Bed & Breakfast. The house itself is a beautiful Victorian with appropriate furnishings. The bed was so comfortable that it was easy to get a good nights sleep. We were able to bring my children to breakfast which was great. Cesar was concerned with our needs and made us feel at home.

Plussat: The Gables is a three story house built in 1889. It has the charm and ambiance for the guests who stay there. The owner/innkeeper is passionate about creating a warm friendly environment for his guests. The breakfast was delicious and the location to catch the trolley to downtown Philadelphia is very convenient.

Plussat: Close proximity to my destination.

Miinukset: First room, carpet was badly stained. I was moved to a “non-pet” floor, room was much cleaner and smelled clean. Towels and tables frequently had hair on/ in them.

Miinukset: Room was expensive. Restaurant was nice, but also expensive.

Plussat: The location is convenient. The rooms are beautifully designed. The on-site restaurant is fabulous.

Plussat: Hotel looks exactly like the pictures online Hotel staff are very friendly The bedding and bathroom linen was fairy clean 6min uber ride from the city center Late checkout was at 1pm.

Miinukset: There was an ambiguous stain on inside of the bathroom door and it was pretty gross. I called downstairs and they called housekeeping right away. I requested toothpaste and a microwave to my room twice and it was never sent. The microwaves were all being used and there weren't any available 12 hours later from my first request. Went to the CoOp restaurant and there was a hair in my Banana Foster French Toast. They were supposed to have another one made but it never made it to my table.

Plussat: Great healthy choices.

Plussat: Very clean, modern accommodations.

Miinukset: Mildly inconvenient parking.

Plussat: Very kind and helpful staff. Place is nice.

Miinukset: Could not sleep. People yelling, very noisy doors. Usually top floors are quiet. Our floor was a nightmare til late in the night. Manager should consider quietness as one of the key priorities in assigning rooms. Breakfast was good but had to wait one hour for a cup of fruit and 3 croissants. Served without fork, knife and spoon.

Plussat: rooms are cute and clean, and as someone traveling with heavy work demand, i loved the desk overlooking the window. amazing shower, comfy bed and robe, and stunning lobby. i can't wait to find an excuse to go back.

Plussat: Convenient location. Beautiful hotel. Friendly staff.

Miinukset: The mattresses on the beds were awful.No support,very uncomfortable.The pillows were also very stiff&very thick.

Plussat: Second stay at the Study.. loved my room more than the first time I stayed. Used the gym facilities this visit totally exceeded expectations on what they had to offer. The Coop good for brunch on Sun and bed was comfortable. What more could you ask!

Miinukset: Can’t think of anything important? Other than i prefer foam pillows and didn’t have those but should have requested. A Keurig in room for those that need coffee before they get dressed !

Plussat: Everyone was very nice and friendly. Very helpful staff.

Plussat: great location for UPenn, facilities very nice. Pretty neat and clean for an older hotel. This is my second trip here and I'll stay again just because of the location.

Miinukset: The AC was not right....would never stay cold enough in room. I know it was a warm time in Philly but come on....the AC needs to cool better. Bring a fan for the room. There is no "turning it down" on this thing.

Plussat: On UPenn college tour and location was ideal. The young woman at the front desk check in was so friendly and genuine. The bed was very comfortable and room was clean. The down side- A/C kicked on and off all night and room wasn’t cool enough despite setting it low. Overall I would recommend it.

Plussat: Everything

Miinukset: Notjin

Plussat: The bed is perfect and room was quite conducive.

Miinukset: Nothing really. Like almost every thing about the hotel

Miinukset: House cleaning stole my girlfriends rings.

Plussat: Cleanliness, safety, and customer service

Miinukset: The long wait for valet parking.

Plussat: The great customer service and the cleaness of the room.

Miinukset: Not being told about an amount held until I seen come out my account and asked questions

Plussat: nice staff

Miinukset: Limited Parking options

Plussat: Nice hotel with an awesome steakhouse on the first floor.

Miinukset: You either have to valet your car or park it down the street from the hotel.

Miinukset: The price wasnt correct-- over charged.

Plussat: The bed and pillows were amazing.

Miinukset: The tissue box had 2 tissues; only 1 bath towel, hand towel, and wash cloth per person. Unless you luck out to find on street parking, you are forced to use valet parking. For the room price, parking should be included.

Plussat: The hotel was clean and staff very accommodating.

Miinukset: Although the restaurant was very good, I would have like more of a variety and less expensive. Breakfast was reasonable, but dinner for a family would be very costly.

Plussat: The staff was friendly when around. Food was actually ok. Was scared when I read about it. Gr8 view. Area felt safe. Near shops and restaurants. You do need a car. Self parking was about $5 and valet about $20-$30. No lock on bathroom.

Miinukset: Elevator card scan didn't work. Was worried about security. Got there @ midnight. No help with bags provided. Sink in room was blocked so there was standing water. Stains on carpet. It can get noisy.

Plussat: Comfy bed. Liked not having a tub in the bathroom.

Miinukset: I hated the fact that there were no towel bars in the bathroom. Three of us shared a room and there was only 1 hook. Also the barn door looks cool but it doesn't lock. Finally the bathroom vent doesn't exhaust well. The bathroom was extremely humid and wet after showering.

Plussat: NORHING

Miinukset: THE ROOM WAS INFESTED WITH COCKROACHES, THE LIGHTS DID NOT WORK, CURTAINS WERE TORN DOWN, AND THE AIR CONDITIONING WAS BROKEN. THE WORST ROOM IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. I DEMAND A FULL REFUND OF MY MONEY.

Miinukset: There wasn't even wifi.

Plussat: NothIng

Miinukset: Run down looking building, several people bringing prostitutes into the building, another customer complaining but being told compensation comes at check out rather than resolve the issue. Avoid this place as best you can.

Plussat: Price last minute on a weekend.

Miinukset: This hotel is a mess. I tried to check in on the phone as we were stuck in traffic and wouldn't be arriving until after midnight. I waited on hold for 15 minutes because they were "changing staff". When we arrive we drive past it twice because it doesn't look like a hotel. There was some ghetto party that was letting out when we arrived and it was like walking into a zoo with people out front yelling profanity and all of them drunk. The parking was blocked by these same folks who were too drunk to get their cars successfully out of the parking lot. The lobby is straight out of the 70's and you get a key fob with the room number on it (nothing screams patron security). The rooms are dull and out dated. No modern emeritus (not even the basics). The shower tiles was proven in several spots. The shower towels were ripped on the edges and frayed. No additional pillows or towels to be found anywhere. Oh and the toilet was clogged when we arrived and glogged again during our stay (not from our doing). In the morning before check out we were awakened by what can only be described as another ghetto room party in the room down the hall. Screaming, yelling and laughing all heard as clear as day from several rooms down the hall. I have received significantly better service for $170 and much cleaner and safer accommodations! Probably could have spent half the money at a bargain chain hotel and felt more taken care of and safer. Save your money if you are looking at this place. It's not worth $50 and you spent three times that bc it's in the city and they jack the rates up on the weekends.

Miinukset: Roach infested

Plussat: There was absolutely nothing that I liked here.

Miinukset: Phone lines down. The name of the hotel doesn't match the name on the outside of the building. The parking garage smelled of human waste. There was no shower curtain. The bedding had cigarette burns in them. The doors didn't lock properly. It rained. So did the ceilings. The AC was stuck on. I genuinely expected Dexter to come in and kill me. I didn't sleep.

Plussat: ABSOLUTELY NONE

Miinukset: ROOMS UNCLEANED, BROKEN A/C, NO FRIDGE, SMELLY ROOM.. VERY UNSATISFIED

Miinukset: Everything about this hotel was absolutely horrible. The staff was so ignorant and rude. Hotel needed extreme updates. Room was so dirty. Had maintence knocking on our door at 7am telling us to clean someone else's fried chicken trash that was in the hallway. This place is the real life American horror story hotel. This hotel should be closed.

Miinukset: They didn't even change the bed sheet

Miinukset: Room was freezing cold, sheets had stains, TV and closet were broken, bathtub was grimy. Do not ever stay here unless you're completely desperate.

Plussat: Nothing!!!

Miinukset: Condom wrappers found on the bed, smells like poop in the room, floors are gross and dirty, found rats, no heat, no tables or chairs, People selling drugs outside, people yelling at night really loud, no working TV..

Plussat: Gentleman at the front desk in the morning was very patient and accommodating

Miinukset: Sheets and blankets were scratchy and appeared unwashed, toilet didn't flush properly, AC fluctuated between extreme heat and cold, walls were paper thin, door didn't lock properly, no one was at the front desk in the evening, music playing all night in the hallway, phone didn't work, no one answered the phone when we called, felt very unsafe and feared our items being stolen
