Williams Park

Close to Reading Terminal, Chinatown and restaurants like Hard Rock Cafe, short walk to get subway to sport stadiums. Price was high and had to pay $40 in additional for their parking deck. Nice room but no hair dryer and our room was on parking deck side and loud hum all night of machinery (not cars).

Pros: The staff was very friendly. There was a small connected restaurant were we had a nice breakfast, however the menu was quite limited. Large bedroom with comfortable bed and very large living room. Cons: - Parking garage is not close and it is somewhat scary to walk back to the hotel at 1 AM when the streets are deserted. During normal hours the area seems quite safe. - Blinds, but no curtains on the large bedroom window. The room never got dark at night due to lights directly outside the bedroom window. - No outlets near nightstands. - Bathroom had an extremely noisy fan that automatically turned on with the light. I moved a lamp into the bathroom to avoid the sound. - One-person small sleep sofa was in a small room in back next to the kitchen. There were about 20 HVAC compressors in the alley outside the small room. You could hear the noise from the compressors. - It is mind boggling why they don't put blackout curtains on the windows and a queen size sleep sofa in the gigantic living room (where you would not hear the HVAC compressors). - At 6:30 AM the person who was sleeping on the small sleep sofa was awakened by extremely loud trashmen. I did not hear them in the main bedroom. - Hopefully an anomaly, but there was a large glob of hardened material like cardboard molded into the bedsheet. I can't believe the person who made the bed didn't see it. Another Pro: Kitchen seemed well equipped; however I didn't use it.

Extremely clean. Walkable to all the fine dining places in City Center Philly.
