The room itself was an ok size... I definitely did not feel it was as small as some others have noted. We stayed in a room with 2 double beds. I think most places I have stayed typically have 2 queens, but this was not a surprise since it was clearly stated when we booked that it was 2 doubles. There was a small desk, which was enough room for my needs to use a laptop with a notepad next to it.
The room had a fridge, but no microwave... although I wasn't sure when we booked that we would have either, so we were happy with the fridge.
The bathroom wasn't large by any means, but it was more than suitable for our needs. Sink was outside of the bathroom itself, which was a definite plus in my situation... staying with a couple family members.
I wish the room would have had a few more electric outlets. There were only two available by the desk, and none by the nightstand. And the ones on the desk, are controlled by the light switch, which I didn't realize until I woke up to a dead cell phone battery in the morning. We were provided with a WiFi password and check in and used it quite a bit while we were there without any problems.
The room was fairly clean... the shower, sink , toilet and beds all were fine, but the carpet seemed to be in need of some deep cleaning.
Perhaps the best part for us was the location. We were on a visit to Swarthmore College and this is about 2 miles away. There are also plenty of chain restaurants in close proximity.
Since this is classified as a hotel, I would say it is average at best. I am not positive of the exact classification rules, but this is the type of place I think of as a Motel. It is two stories, but the rooms open to the outside. If you went in expecting it to be a Motel type place, you might rate it as Very Good, but then again, you might not have paid over $100 a night for a Motel.

Thank you for taking time to write such a clear and precise accounting of your stay with us. While we always hope we are better then adequate we are pleased that you had a good stay with us.
In regards to the exterior corridors; we do realize that this has a bit of a “dated” aesthetic to it, but we are luckily in a very safe neighborhood. I always try to console anyone with concerns about it that it is no less safe then the interior entrances. You have the same lock system that you would otherwise and the safety level remains the same.
Our service and commitment to providing a comfortable stay to our guests is our number one priority. Again, I would like to thank you for your assessment and feedback and any improvements we can make, we will, always!
Regards,
Lori Terry
Front Office Manager
