Location is fantastic. Right in the water and next to a clean, beautiful, safe, quiet park. Note it is near airport so planes go by but they didn’t bother us in the room. Hotel is older but our room was newly redone and clean.

Dont tell anyone how good this place is.

This is a hidd2n gem in Philly. The Riverview room was amazing and the service was excellent.
Megan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

While the rooms did indeed get a makeover and much needed at that, it's still very much a facility that is consistent with the price that you pay.So ask yourself, what are they charging?And you'll probably get what's equivalent for that price point.

Rooms Nicely Renovated

I stayed here last year and was pleasantly surprised to find the rooms renovated, with very good quality work and fixtures. Road access is excellent and great location along the river and next to a park. I'll definitely be staying here on my next visit to the area.

8/10 Very good

you can tell they are renovating, but doing a good job. it is simple and quiet. they could use some better access to things like drinks and snacks, so if you grab a few before checking in you should be great.

We enjoyed our stay at the Waterfront Inn. Our room was clean and spacious with a river view. Room had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. The front desk person was friendly and had us checked in quickly. We especially enjoyed sitting on the waterfront patio and watching the boats cruising by and airplanes flying overhead. Will stay again
