The hype
The staff is friendly and the shuttle is a lifesaver, but the building itself is tired, worn, and in desperate need of a refresh.
Four Points Philadelphia Airport
$115-160/ noapte
Rezervă dacă You need a functional crash pad with a pool within 6 minutes of PHL airport and don't mind dated decor.
De ce o iubesc oamenii
- Reliable free 24/7 airport shuttle runs every 20-30 minutes
- Outdoor pool (seasonal) is a rare find for this price point
- Cafe Rusto serves surprisingly decent burgers and local beers
Privire rapidă: A 1985 time capsule that delivers on convenience and mattress comfort but fails hard on carpet stains and soundproofing.
Evaluat de @TravelwithMichael: I grabbed this room for a quick layover at PHL and it was perfect. The bed was super comfortable, and the room was surprisingly quiet. It’s not luxury, but for a clean, reliable place to sleep and work near the airport, I'd definitely stay again.

Reality check
You might get a clean, quiet room, or you might get one with peeling wallpaper, a loud AC unit, and a view of a dumpster—consistency is a major issue.
- You have an early morning flight and just need a bed
- You want a pool to kill time during a summer layover
- You are a car enthusiast visiting the nearby Simeone Foundation Automotive Museum
Curățenie și Întreținere
4.2
- Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Many reports of 'missed spots', trash left behind, and beds not being changed between guests.
- Bathroom hygiene: Major weak point. Complaints of mold on ceilings, hair in drains, and peeling tub glaze.
- Maintenance: Struggling. Broken AC units, peeling wallpaper, and worn furniture are common.
- Linens & towels: Hit or miss. Some find them crisp, others report stains and burn marks.
- Odors & scents: High risk of stale smoke, weed, or musty 'old carpet' smells.
