very welcoming staff, very thoughtful decor and relaxation items (from coffee & tea, to their choice of lotion and body wash!). I cannot wait to visit again :) we opted for street parking and it was not too bad at all for us (stayed thurs-sat).

Fun loft room with a single bed under the stairs for kids or smaller adults. Great location made it easy to walk. If you are driving, make sure to add parking because on street parking is difficult to find and parking spots for the property are secure but very limited.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay here. Communication was top notch, the Loft was awesome . The only thing I would say is if you need entertainment bring a laptop or tablet there are no tv’s in the loft, the WiFi was great though. We needed to be close to the Convention Center and it only took us about 10 minutes to walk there and Reading terminal. I would absolutely stay here again . Much better than a hotel!

This place is great. Close enough to urban shops, good value, easy access, roomy, modern feel... and if you are an oddball energy efficiency person, you'll find a minisplit AC system, energy recovery ventilator, heat pump clothes dryer. Kind of a niche value set, I realize, but appreciated by energy nerds!

The Poor Richard apt is perfect for 2 people. We didn’t cook but the kitchen is well suited. The apt was more spacious than I was expecting. The bed was comfy and very soft. When in Philly I would definitely stay here again. We were there for a concert at Underground Arts and it’s literally around the corner. Reading terminal market and the Convention center was a few blocks down the street.
