I greatly enjoyed unique design

This was a wonderful trip, I did not want to leave there. Warm breakfast, accommodating service. Nice garden and nice pool area. Moreover, public parking was located nearby. Historic location, only a short distance to independence hall.

Luxurious room and in a beautiful location. The bed was nice and it was great having air conditioning, microwave and fridge. The easy check-in process too. Obviously that free Wi-Fi throughout the property was really convenient.

It was a fantastic time staying at this boutique hotel. The breakfast was free, the pool was good, the beds were lovely. Employees were flexible and kept it all fairly clean.
