    Winston at the front desk was very informative and helpful to us during our stay. The hotel bar is nice but evening/night service with Samir is the worse! We did enjoy our stay otherwise.

    I booked an overnight stay while a friend was recovering from surgery at lankenau hospital. I pulled in front and was greeted by a valet driver right way asking if I was checking in. When he learned I was checking in he offered to collect my luggage. When entering the front desk is to the right. I was greeted and checked in by Jordan she was wonderful.

    Ok hotel in outskirts of Philadelphia. A bit run down. Takes a long time to get hot water. TV signal doesn't work. Breakfast is slow and overpriced. Unfortunately not much else nearby. Convenience items also overpriced. Hotel rate itself fairly reasonable, but doesn't include breakfast or parking. There is free street parking if you can find it. Self park at $25 per night is expensive considering it is a long walk. Pool has too much chemical.

    The Hilton is located in a convenient location. The lobby and restaurant are new and updated. The king room we had was nice and clean when we first arrived. However, we were disappointed in the service at the Hilton. The first room we were given smelled very strongly of marijuana. The manager on duty gave us another room, but the hallways continued to smell throughout our whole stay, with the smell seeping into our room at times. We stayed for four nights, and our room was never cleaned during our stay. We arrived on a Wednesday night and left on a Sunday morning. Our room was not cleaned on Thursday or Friday. On Friday night we called the front desk to ask for more towels which were never brought up to our room. On Saturday morning we were out of our room by 9:30am. We inquired at the front desk about the cleaning schedule. The manger on duty told us our room should have been cleaned on Friday, and assured us it would be cleaned that day. We arrived back to our room at 3:30pm on Saturday and the room was still not cleaned. We went down to the front desk to complain and ask for towels and toilet paper. We were told that they would bring those items up to our room when they had a chance, but couldn’t guarantee it would be right away. Overall, we were really disappointed in the customer service at the hotel.
