"I took my daughter on our first solo trip. The hotel was easy driving to Staten Island ferry and Philadelphia, exactly what we were looking for. When we got to the hotel we were very surprised. She wanted to enjoy a day just at the hotel. Definitely will be back"
"In spite of their being no facecloths in my room, this was still an excellent place to stay. The breakfast was a typical hotel breakfast but I’ve seen worse. The coffee was from a machine that “brews” it…it was pretty bad. But overall it was clean and cozy, would stay here again!"
