A great experience overall. ##### James Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 8 Jul 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### DO NOT STAY HERE!! The beautiful river front photo you see on the website is NOT the property or even very close to where it is. An address is not provided until you pay the extra nonrefundable cleaning fee and only right before check in time. That’s when they also supply the FOUR different codes required to access the property. No amount of codes could have made me feel safe enough to stay there. I knew right away when I pulled up that it was an awful area and downright scary! The check in email is also when they advise that the street parking is not recommended due to frequent car break ins in the area. The neighborhood appeared very run down with trash in the front yards and much in disrepair. I advised them immediately that I did not feel safe staying there and felt I had been deceived. Since it was a non refundable reservations they ignored my request and kept my money although I did eventually get the cleaning fee back. I have booked accommodations for decades through Hotels.com and never before complained like this. It is not up to the standards I would expect on this platform. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Delta Hotel Philadelphia Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Philadelphia-Hotels-Delta-Hotels-By-Marriott-Philadelphia-Airport.h23444.Hotel-Information) > > [Motto by Hilton Philadelphia Rittenhouse Square](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Philadelphia-Hotels-Pod-Philly.h37735084.Hotel-Information) > > [Jupiter Albufeira Hotel - Family & Fun - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albufeira-Hotels-Jupiter-Albufeira-Hotel-Family-Fun.h27232572.Hotel-Information) > > [B&B Birmingham](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Birmingham-Bed-And-Breakfasts.d6023342-aaBedAndBreakfasts.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Wyndham Philadelphia Historic District](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Philadelphia-Hotels-Wyndham-Philadelphia-Historic-District.h15646.Hotel-Information) > > [Sonesta Philadelphia Rittenhouse Square](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Philadelphia-Hotels-Sonesta-Philadelphia-Rittenhouse-Square.h4470.Hotel-Information) > > [B&B Bournemouth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bournemouth-Bed-And-Breakfasts.d654-aaBedAndBreakfasts.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Sonder by Marriott Bonvoy The Witherspoon Apartments Center City](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Philadelphia-Hotels-Sonder-At-The-Witherspoon.h64559731.Hotel-Information) > > [Ajax Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Limassol-Hotels-Ajax-Hotel.h2239789.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Earl's Court](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Earls-Court-London-Hotels.0-n553248626912740751-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Pittsburgh University Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pittsburgh-Hotels-Wyndham-Pittsburgh-University-Center.h3215.Hotel-Information) > > [Doubletree by Hilton Hotel Woking](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Woking-Hotels-Doubletree-By-Hilton-Hotel-Woking.h786850.Hotel-Information) > > [The Windsor Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Philadelphia-Hotels-The-Windsor-Suites.h201099.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton, Philadelphia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Philadelphia-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton.h465743.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Centric Jumeirah Dubai](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dubai-Hotels-Hyatt-Centric-Jumeirah-Dubai.h72108064.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Hisaronu](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hisaronu-Hotels.d6055697.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Efe Hotel Göcek](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fethiye-Hotels-Efe-Hotel-Gocek.h2908755.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Entertainment in Stratford-upon-Avon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stratford-Upon-Avon-Hotels-Hotel-With-Entertainment.0-0-d5703-thotelwithentertainment.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Sofitel Philadelphia at Rittenhouse Square](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Philadelphia-Hotels-Sofitel-Philadelphia-At-Rittenhouse-Square.h454658.Hotel-Information) > > [Canopy by Hilton Philadelphia Center City](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Philadelphia-Hotels-Canopy-Philadelphia-Center-City.h46227144.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from London (LHR) to Tbilisi (TBS)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/tbs/london-to-tbilisi) > > [Flights from Bristol (BRS) to Narita (NRT)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/brs/nrt/bristol-to-tokyo) > > [Flights from Istanbul (IST) to London (LHR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ist/lhr/istanbul-to-london) > > [Flights from Birmingham (BHX) to Bouguenais (NTE)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/bhx/nte/birmingham-to-nantes) > > [Flights from Birmingham (BHX) to Timi (PFO)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/bhx/pfo/birmingham-to-paphos) ### Cars > [Car hire in Savannah](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Savannah-Hilton-Head-Intl.d5652819.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Activities > [Things to do in Dublin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Dublin.d178256.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Sandwich](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Sandwich.d6023761.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Seville Cathedral](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seville-Cathedral-Historical-Center.d502758.Attraction) ### Holiday Rentals > [Limassol Holiday Rentals](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Limassol-Holiday-Rentals.d5192.Travel-Guide-HolidayRentals)
