My stay at the Homewood Suites was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were new and clean with a modern design, which I liked. However, they were very small and cramped, not ideal for a family stay. The available pool was closed during my visit, which was disappointing.

The hotel is conveniently located near UPenn and offers a great selection of nearby dining options. While the rooms could use some updating and maintenance, the service was accommodating. The dining experience is average but acceptable for a quick bite. The location is excellent for those visiting the University of PA or Drexel.

My room was in poor shape, with various issues like broken closet doors and a subpar sofa bed. However, it was clean and provided the basics for a short stay. Be sure to grab water before heading up as the room was extremely cold.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of comfort and a few disappointments. The rooms were clean and spacious, though they could use a modern facelift. The service was extremely nice and helpful, with plans to renovate the rooms for better comfort. The location was convenient, close to various amenities, but the room with no windows felt dark and closed off. The dining options were basic, but at least you can grab something quickly. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.

The rooms were clean and spacious, though a bit outdated. They provided two beds for my husband and me, but the blow dryer was dirty. They could enhance the modern feel and include basic amenities like water bottles and toothpaste.
