The staff is very friendly and professional, and the location is great for events at UPenn. The room and facilities overall could have been a bit cleaner and more organized when I first arrived, but it wasn’t anything major. There was also some distracting construction noise in the mornings, but I’m sure that’s temporary.

The room was great! Everything was clean and there are lots of neat amenities like a nightlight in the bathroom and a magnifier mirror by the bathroom sink. Staff were great and we were given complimentary access to the guest lounge on the 20th floor, which provided soft drinks in the evening and a hot breakfast in the morning.
