The room facilities are excellent, and it's very close to the University of Pennsylvania. It's ideal for visiting parents and students; there's a convenience store and restaurants downstairs, making it very convenient. Highly recommended for parents visiting the University of Pennsylvania.

The room is quite nice, the space is large, very comfortable, and the surrounding area is safe. The tableware and pots are fully equipped, and the service is good, but it lacks necessary toiletries.

The night view is charming! Great location! If we forgot to bring our suitcase, we were reminded to go back and get it! I will choose to stay here next time! My family is all satisfied. The parking lot is very crowded. Fortunately, a car came out.

Facilities: Complete facilities, very new
Hygiene: It is clean and tidy. American waiters will not take the initiative to clean the room and disturb your rest.
Environment: The environment is first-class, very close to Penn State and the city center, with convenient transportation and good scenery.
Service: Good service attitude, polite greetings, and not excessively intrusive
