We ended up staying for a third night and no one told the hotel staff so we were in bed not fully closed in the housekeeping, opened our door and walked in.

The Alexander Inn is a handsome, charming, bijou hotel in the heart of Center City Philadelphia. The location and ambiance are just right. The best part of my stay, however, was the staff:, funny, warm and wonderful. Nothing was too much trouble fro them. They have a talent for making you feel welcome without being fawning or intrusive. I chose the Alexander Inn for its location and its charm; I’ll return, thanks to the wonderful staff.
