As a wheelchair user I was disappointed that there are steps inside the front door of the hotel; but there is a small "lift" ... elavator that, althought it had glitches, accomodated me. The hotel is within walking distance of Old City, China Town, The Franklin Institute, and a variety of restaurants. I would describe pretty much everything else about the hotel as fine, and, as such, it is a good bargain over, for instance, the Holiday Inn.

I recommend to a friend!!! Nice!

Not Worth it

kaley Oct 6, 2009

Was in ok location, but was not worth how much we paid for it, and the next night paid the same to stay at the Comfort Inn on ... the water with an outstanding view. The rooms at TravelLodge were tiny and the place was very dingy. The only thing nice was that there was a continental breakfast. Would pay more money to stay somewhere else.

UGH!!

This was the noisiest, dirtiest hotel I have ever stayed at. This must THE place to go for hourly room rentals. There sure ... was lots of traffic in the hallways untill 3 A.M. Avoid if at all possible!!!!!!

Was disappointed in the size of the room and having to pay $50 to park my car. Television volume was broken so we couldn't ... hear a thing. Management apologized and said "We can't do anything about it".

Great cheap hotel for a not-cheap price.

The Travelodge at the Pennsylvania Convention Center is your typical commuter-style hotel. Unfortunately, you're paying about ... the same price as you would at the Hilton or Sheraton just down the road, but getting much less. The Travelodge offers no parking, forcing you to park at a near-by outdoor public lot that will run you at least $20 a night. They will not offer any sort of hotel discount or validation. They offer free wi-fi which only worked for about one hour out of my three day stay there. It is currently across the street from an enormous construction project - the kind that even if you're on the top floor, there are still construction workers just outside your window. If you're attending something at the Convention Center, the location is perfect. But, as stated before, there are other hotels that are much nicer at the same price.

Yuck!

Hotels in Philadelphia are very expensive. So I wasn't expecting much for $130 at a Travellodge. The room was fine and ... seemingly clean. The bathroom worked fine. But I woke up with bug bites. It ruined the trip.

the best thing about this hotel is that it's within walking distance to all the things you'd want to see. Unfortunately it ... was directly behind the convention center, which was under construction, so when you looked out the window, there was invariably a construction worker looking directly back at you.

Tiny but got the job done

The walls are so thin that u can almost hear everything! from other rooms. You can't have internet access in some of their ... rooms and you may need to go and sit in the lobby or basement. Prices and location are great. You can walk to everywhere in 5-10 minutes and there is a parking area just behin the hotel(about twenty box/nite). You can't compare the cleaning with a 3-4 stars hotel, it is OK for a couple w/o children. It is very close to Chinatown and just behind the convention center. Go and have you breakfast outside the hotel. It's a good place for one night.

Smelliest Night of My Life

The Travelodge on Race Street in Philadelphia may have a convenient location, but the rooms were smelly, the beds were hard ... as rock, and the manager was surly. The manager was rude and unhelpful. Our room had no window that opened to the outside, so we couldn't even air it out! Very disappointing experience :(

very convenient for PCC visitor

Didnt like it

Toni May 20, 2008

Room was very small. Sink was in the room beside the bed instead of being in the bathroom. There was no window. OK for one ... person one night stay for businessman.

Rooms not great

john May 1, 2008

Small room, carpeting was torn. remote control did work correctly, no pay perview movies. the room was right next to the ... entrance it was loud. The front desk people were nice. the location was convenient.

Comfortable and Friendly

The Philadelphia Travelodge was very comfortable and the staff very friendly and helpful. There was a good selection of ... items for the continental breakfast. There was quite a bit of construction going on in the neighborhood because the hotel was just behind the convention center and that was being expanded. But the construction really didn't cause any problem. The hotel was within three blocks or so of a train station which made for ease of travel to and from the airport, and was also within easy walking distance of several historical sites and restaurants. The only negative might be that the hallways and rooms could be spruced up a bit, e.g., carpets, bathroom grout, etc. All in all we had a very positive experience there.

Poor Location

Debbie Sep 25, 2007

The hotel was adequate for a nights stay but had no resturant and the staff was unable to give me any directions for a bite ... to eat. The rooms were clean and provided the necessities. The location although close to the convention center would not be a place you would want to venture out at night by yourself.

Very Comfortable and well located

The hotel location is near Chinatown and near the Convention Center. Its all walking distance from the hotel to all ... directions-subway, Liberty Bell, Reading Market and others. Hotel room is big and clean. Good value for the money.

Close to everything

The Philadelphia Travelodge was pretty basic, but close to the Convention Center and the historic district. I would ... recommend it for the budget conscious visitor to Center City Philadelphia.
