People are nice and the property was the least expensive for similar star rating in historic Philadelphia. The location is a strong plus. The property is dated however, no fan in the rest room and they had to shut the water off for 6 hours one night for repairs.

Here on business and so happy I found a giant roach in my bathroom after a days travel. Literally horrified to find it crawling on my makeup bag on the bathroom counter. Although I don't have my choice of hotel when I'm traveling for work, I will certainly bring this to their attention so no employees are forced to stay... More

I was visiting Philly alone in May for a huge medical conference, and I didn't want to spend a ton of money. All I needed was a place to sleep and bathe.

I stayed at the Wyndam Philly Historic District for two nights. It was an overall pretty good experience. Not perfect, but very good. The first thing I noticed before I even got there was that this hotel went from a Holiday Inn to a Wyndam, so I knew that the hotel was not going to be in best shape. I... More

I stayed for 3 nights, and the first two days were great. Housekeeping was perfect. The last day I was there, housekeeping left a lot to be desired. I think all they did was make the bed and leave a towel.
