Conveniently located in downtown Philadelphia, this historic bed and breakfast boasts free Wi-Fi, a free breakfast and a decor scheme that is reminiscent of the 1800's. The parlor with a grand piano, a decorative fireplace, seating options, artwork and mantle pieces provide a relaxing place for guests to lounge in.

Great place! Nice to find one of the more affordable options in Philadelphia was also one of the best. The B & B had so much character and our room was very spacious and comfortable. The location was excellent for walking to many attractions and was in a lovely neighbourhood. Staff was friendly and helpful and the breakfast was generous - appreciated them starting a bit earlier than scheduled when we had to catch a flight.
