10/10 Exceptional

We had an excellent stay. The staff at the hotel were all very friendly and helpful. Our room was very clean and comfortable. I highly recommend this hotel, especially if you're visiting UPenn. This hotel is in an excellent location, very close to campus.

The receptions were an AMAZING , that morning we decided to walk to Sabrina’s AMAZING breakfast place. I might say. We would not have made it back at 11 for checkout so we called and asked for a late check out. She said sure . We were so pleased we could enjoy our breakfast without rushing. I will definitely be back. Thank you Sheraton.
The view was gorgeous!!!

Matthew, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent location proximate to both Penn and Drexel campuses. A short run to the Schuylkill Riverfront Trail which is a great place to run if you’re into that. Plenty of delicious restaurants in the neighborhood. It is undergoing renovations but we weren’t in hotel during the day so the noise we were warned about didn’t bother us. The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful.

I had a one night stay at the hotel they put us on the eighth floor when they had construction going on on the seventh floor. Evidently doing a total remodeling We were woken at 7 AM by scratching noises and then at nine the jackhammer went off.
