it’s a great place to stay and get close to the city for a low cost.

very well organized, clean and supplies kept up. Fantastic kitchen facilities! plenty of storage for dry goods and in the refrigerator. plenty of utensils, pots and pans, etc. Big counter space and plenty of tables. Rooms were cleaned daily, beds were comfortable and a very handy light with outlets at bedside. Showers and toilets are all working well and kept clean.

- Perfect location close to the Independence hall and market street. - Well-equipped with all one needs in a hostel. - Spacious room and clean toilets. - Big lockers. - Free ghost tour and other activities. - Cheap cappuccino for 1 dollar only.

Stayed here before and, as always, it was a great stay. It is a Hostel, so if you are unfamiliar with how Hostels are - it might be a bit different. The available community kitchen was huge and very clean. the common spaces were clean and very cozy and welcoming. It is located right in the city center and very close to all the historic attractions: Liberty Bell, Ben Franklin Museum, Betsy Ross House, Independence Hall, and more. There are great restaurants nearby. The L (transit) is a short 5 min walk.

Everything was very clean, they give you new sheets and towels, you feel very comfortable and space is enormous.

Delightful return visit for me. Keep in mind that these are shared accomodations. I normally choose a 6 bed (bunkbed) room, which so far has never been fully booked. Fellow travelers have always been courteous and respectful. Rooms have individual lockable lockers (bring your own lock!) And there is also a storage area next to sign-in for larger items. Great DIY cooking facilities and a comfy common lounge/gameroom. Location is excellent near the historic Old Town, restaurants, riverfront and excellent public transportation. BTW, seniors ride for free in Philly, including suburban rail to out-of-town destinations and direct to PHL airport.

Home atmosphere!!!! Kind people. Beautiful kitchen and access given to kitchen

Nearly everything - see comment about music in common spaces.

Mark’s created a space that’s safe, clean, and fun. It’s helpful and friendly and in a great area.

The hostel is in a prime location, making it very convenient for sight seeing and going out to dri k or eat. The hostel also has very clean and new amenities, which made staying there very enjoyable. The price was pretty unbeatable for the quality.

How does one secure their belongings? I’ve never stayed at a hostel.We have very secure lockers that are free to use, you just have to have your own padlock. If you don't have a padlock you can purchase one at the hostel for $5 or you can rent one for $3. Our lockers have electrical outlets inside them so that you can charge your electronic devices securely while you're away. The lockers in our 4 and 6-bed dorm rooms are 18 inches (45.7 cm) wide, by 19 inches (48 cm) deep, by 35 inches (89 cm) in height. They’re large enough to fit rucksacks and carry on size suitcases. The lockers for our 10 and 18-bed dorm rooms are not large enough to fit an entire suitcase or rucksack, they are meant for securing valuables such as passports, money, laptops, cameras as well as any jackets and other clothing that you may feel concerned about. These lockers measure 12 inches (30.5 cm) wide, by 17 inches (43 cm) deep and 35 inches (89 cm) in height.Asked about: Bed in 18-Bed Female Dormitory Room • Answered on November 15, 2019
