Clean and comfortable
Victoria Mae, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent hotel. The room was perfect. Loved the availability of tea and coffee both in our room and in the lobby. Would return here and would recommend to others. If you have a Temple music student having a concert it is perfectly located for that.

Convenient Spot for STAR Access

Great location to be able to walk back and forth to a sports tournament at the Temple STAR building. About a five minute walk from the hotel. Parking was a little tricky to find but adequate. No fridge in the hotel room.

4/10 Fair

Spend wisely and stay away

The check-in was the only positive. Room was in much need of an upgrade and was overall not clean. I Had to clean the tv remote B/c it was sticky dirty. I found a hair between the top sheet and the fitted sheet. Yuck. Upon checkout, the desk clerk couldn’t even stop talking to a coworker to say goodbye. After I put my card keys on the counter and turned to walk away, I went back to put the cardkey below the counter so no one would take them and re enter my room, then the staff person said “I see them”. No good bye or inquiry about my stay. It was almost like a Hostile.
MARTIN, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Obviously, one stays here because one has activity or business plans on the Temple campus. Super convenient, in that case. As for the hotel itself, it's an average, dated hotel. Fixtures are old and average. Nothing really stands out as extraordinary, because it's well, an average campus hotel. My stays here (twice over 4 years) were fine. Only one complaint, the bed in 510 - it's a mushy marshmallow and I was in much pain for 3 days after my stay there.
James, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Convenient for visiting Temple.
Marilyn, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Pro: On campus; Con: Needs big updates & AC

It's clean and safe and right in the heart of campus. But the air conditioning does not work, the tubs don't drain very well (meaning: you're showering in a pool of dirty water), and there are essentially no amenities whatsoever (no fitness center, in-room fridge, safe, or even a phone to call for help). If you can, bring a fan to compensate for the lack of A/C. The location is terrific and the hotel is overall clean and trustworthy. But it's long overdue for a basic renovation (rooms likely date to the 70s/80s). If you have difficulty sleeping when the room is too warm, this may not be the place for you. It's far from food (save for the campus pub & 7/11). But you don't have to be afraid of your surroundings and the campus is gorgeous.
Rob, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hotel was right on campus across from the library. Great place to stay if visiting Temple campus. The student run coffee shop attached to the hotel was convenient.
Sarah, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved being on the TU campus, surrounded by beautiful, historic buildings. The inn is located right beside the campus police office, so I felt very safe.

Maria, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We loved our stay at the Conwell. We came to Philadelphia to see a show at The Met, and it was an easy walk to the venue. The staff was helpful and friendly. The only issue was when we woke up, there was no hot water, and we had to leave without a shower. We were not given a reason for the lack of hot water, just that the manager was notified.
Howard, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The inn is my go to place when in Philly. No whistles or bells just clean and comfortable. The desk staff and housekeeper are fun, efficient and friendly. Hats off to tori and Juanita for knowing how to engage their clients and have fun.
