I had a mixed experience at the Best Western Plus Philadelphia Convention Center Hotel. While I appreciated the staff's kindness and the cleanliness of my room, my stay was marred by a lack of hot water and some concerns about the location. The parking situation also left me feeling a bit uneasy. Overall, it was a decent stay, but I hoped for more comfort and security. 😕⭐️

I had a mixed experience at Best Western Plus Philadelphia Convention Center Hotel. The location was convenient for downtown access, though the area felt a bit unsafe. My room was spacious, but my friend's was oddly different despite being next door. The breakfast options were limited, likely due to COVID-19, which was disappointing.

The hotel facilities were overall okay, but nothing stood out as really good. The room did not have a window with a view, which added to the overall feeling of being cramped.

My experience at the Best Western Plus Philadelphia Convention Center Hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. While I appreciated the clean rooms and the convenient location near downtown attractions, the service left something to be desired. The front desk staff wasn't particularly friendly, and my room was only cleaned once during my three-night stay, which was disappointing. Overall, I would say it has potential but needs improvement in service and maintenance.

During my stay at the Best Western Plus Philadelphia Convention Center Hotel, I appreciated the spacious room and the proximity to my conference at the convention center. However, I encountered some cleanliness issues and found the breakfast options quite limited. The noise from the street made it difficult to get a good night's sleep, which was disappointing. Overall, it's a convenient location but with room for improvement. 😕
