On a business trip to Drexel University, i stayed 3 nights with the family-owned B & B. It was a restful, quiet and relaxing stay. The room was clean and comfortable. Great bed! The only upgrade I could suggest would be some protein in the breakfast offerings. Those of us who are unable to eat many carbs find a lovely... More

We have stayed at the Cornerstone B & B multiple times since our twin sons matriculated at University of Pennsylvania. We just competed a 3 night stay for graduation weekend. Rates are a fraction of the cost that you will spend at other hotels in University City. The innkeepers are well suited to be running a bed & breakfast. From... More

The B&B is very particular because it is in a typical USA house with a garden outside. The rooms are clean and very nice. It is in the university area, and not so far from the Station, the Museum and the underground. The breakfast is good very special because you are seated around a big table with the other guests...

Stayed here while in town to take my USMLE Step 2 CS exam. The owners are very friendly and clearly have a lot of experience with medical students coming for this same reason. They are prepared with advice, directions, and timely breakfast. Also very help at how to get around the city and where to go for sight-seeing.

I am so happy that the conference hotels were sold out! Otherwise, I would not have experienced this beautifully restored Victorian sitting in the center of an old district in West Philadelphia downtown, and the warm hostpilaity of its owners. This B&B is a delight for those interested in authentic experiences, art and history, of which the building itself is... More

Lovely restored home. Host and hostess were very helpful and a good source of information for us about the area. Great walking distance to Drexel, U of Penn, and subway for downtown access. Very nice!

My daughters and I stayed at the Cornerstone B&B for just under a week while visiting someone in the hospital at UPenn. We arrived on Christmas day and were warmly welcomed by the innkeepers and their family. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. The bed was the most comfortable I've ever slept in. The breakfasts were... More

Excellent lodging - Food was great - clean and neat - my first time at a B & B anywhere. The bed was a little harder than I am used to but it was fine. Plenty of pillows if needed. The bathroom was just re-done and it was outstanding.
