“This hotel certainly emphasizes functional style, and I found the location ideal for accessing Rittenhouse Square and the city's attractions. I think the rooftop bar, El Techo, really elevates the experience with its city views. The bunk bed room options strike me as particularly clever for families or small groups looking for an affordable city stay.”
