I am so glad I chose to try this Inn rather than a big hotel in Center City. My husband is in Temple Hospital and this place is perfect for location, safety, experience , and overall comfort. I will return again!
This room was so cute and the staff was great. The bed was a little soft but comfortable but the location was perfect.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The hotel is in an excellent location if visiting Temple. It's located on campus! The room and common areas were clean and tidy. The staff was very professional and kind. Parking is convenient but you have to pay, either for a nearby garage or the hotel. The cost to park on the hotel lot was $20. Downside: the hotel needs updating, especially the bathrooms.
Stayed for a concert at the theater around the corner. It was extremely convenient to be that close. The room was fine with a view of the campus. Places to eat and a convenience store nearby made up for no ice available that night.
My son and I stayed here when we saw Metallica at Lincoln Financial. A couple blocks walk to metro, excellent pizza joint nearby. The hotel itself was clean and snug. Definitely a good quiet place to stay.
Right in the middle of Temple University. Room was clean, staff was very friendly, and helpful.

Disliked: Amenities
Location was inconvenient for getting Lyft and Uber rides. Carpets were dirty. Mattress and pillows were very uncomfortable.
Front desk staff were friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable.
Clean room with a friendly staff. Finding the hotel is difficult because it is on Temple University's campus. The entrance is very obscure. I had to call the front desk to find the entrance. GPS is absolutely no help. However, once you are in, the place is very nice. The only issue was that the tub in room 310 is starting to rust. A relatively minor detail. Overall, the place is beautiful, clean, and secure, and I will definitely be back.
