Very close to 30th St Station (Amtrak & SEPTA) and a short walk to Schuykill Banks to go running.

Spacious, but dusty and you have to do everything
The location to Upenn is wonderful, the spacious rooms and new building and facilities.
I had to take my luggage to the rooms and away when checking out! I have never had this issue before in any place in the world ! The rooms were dusty with a lot of dust everywhere, the room service refused to clean the room while staying, I didn't understand the concept of the hotel with nobody taking the luggage, no room service or room dining and paying top dollar for staying in the hotel !

This was an absolutely impeccable property and experience.
I have to say this might have been the best place I've ever stayed. The staff were wonderful as you arrived. The lobby was impeccable. The location was outstanding. And then the room was stunning. 32nd floor, amazing view, but also roomy, comfortable and spotless. This was tip top in every aspect. There was great pride in this property and it showed in every aspect.
That I only stayed one night. But I had friends come up to see the room and they were equally impressed. I hope my travels take me to other AKA cities.

Very good
Great but with some attention to detail could be excellent.
Location is great. Apartment style perfect when visiting with students as there is room to hang out and visit.
Small things like the amount of dirt in the elevator and that the keycards didnt work very well. Otherwise its a very nice place.
