I loved the Hive Room - super comfy with a surprisingly good view of the city. It was the perfect option for two travelers. Quiet hours aren’t enforced well though, and people (and their two dogs) staying in a neighboring room were loud well past 2:30 am.

Let me start by saying, the property owners were very quick to respond to my questions. The property was very clean, essentials provided in the Kitchenette, bed was comfortable, towels were provided. PARKING SUCKS! I booked back in October and no where on the site did it explain you have to book onsite parking in advance and there are only 4 spots available. When I arrived I called the phone number and they explained the parking spots were all booked so I’d have to park at a lot just up the block. If I would’ve known that I would’ve reserved on October when I booked the room. PRICING FOR WHAT YOU GET IS TOO PRICEY. While this was a nice room, there was an extended stay place across the street that was significantly less money for just as great a room and they had an abundance of parking. I noticed after looking online in the area there were more budget friendly options and more convenient. OVERALL PLEASANT STAY

Parking on site. The building and apartment was secure and clean. The tea provided was a nice touch and needed. I loved the whole concept of how they designed the building and apartment. The coffee shop down the street was excellent as well.

Right around the corner from Underground Arts which is why we came! Super easy to get a train from the airport to the hotel. Got off at Jefferson Station and it put us right by Reading Terminal Market. They have loads of dining and shopping there and is about a 10 min walk to the hotel. The room is nice, quiet, and clean. Highly recommend for a short visit.

This was a true oasis for my daughter and myself. Moving her into an apartment from out of town and none of her stuff had arrived, we found comfort and a good night’s sleep for a very reasonable price . Thank you!
