The first thing you notice, is the thick bullet proof glass that the clerk sits behind at the check in desk. It is located in what I would consider a bad part of town. I stayed there for four nights and had no other choice but to continue my stay. The TV kept going in and out and the reception... more

I was hesitant after reading the reviews, but pleasantly surprised once I checked in and saw the accommodations. The price was right, the neighborhood was fine and more importantly, the place was clean. What do you expect in Northeast Philadelphia?? If you want a nice, affordable place to stay for the night, you can't go wrong. If you want to... more

Never Again!!!!!!!!!!!!! I called the hotel after reading the posted reviews, the manager told me the hotel had been totally remodeled. NOT!!!! rooms were filthy, our pipe on the bathroom sink busted and their way of fixing it was to send two cleaning women to place a bucket under it. there were prostitutes in the halls, no iron, dirty sheets.... more

My husband and three small children checked into this hotel and me first impression walking in the front door was this is bad. The attendant was behind glass, the lobby stank and there weren’t even chairs or anything in the lobby for the guests. After getting to our room I was even more disgusted. The carpet was dirty and wet,... more

I read the reviews on the web, and took the chance on the Roosevelt, as the price and locations were right. It actually turned out to be a very nice surprise - for my (very reasonable) room rate, I got a room with what looked like new furniture, a big, comfortable bed, a clean bathroom and a big TV. The... more

The room was awful, the rug was filthy, there were holes in the curtains and on the bedspreads, and the window was broken, not to mention the towels were dirty. There was no clock radio and no inhouse directory. The faculty had no personality, not welcoming at all and you hear everything from doors slaming to people talking. more

The "front desk" at this establishment resembles a gas station in a bad part of town. The management is behind glass, and there are ancient two-way mirrors in the foyer, giving one the impression that you need only wait a short time before the complimentary thorazine and straight jackets are administered to the "guests." The clerk told my sons and... more

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Roosevelt Inn last year. We liked the rates and the rooms looked nice on the website. Not to mention it was AAA approved. When we got there they gave us a room that was awful!! The room was small, the carpet was dirty and the walls had holes in them. It was a... more

I wanted to warn anyone contemplating a stay at this place because of the low price. This is one scary, dirty place! The checkin desk had bulletproof glass an inch thick, there was pot smoke in the hallways, I found blood on the comforter, there was no blanket, the room was very cold, the shower was dirty, the sheets old... more
