Sonesta Philadelphia Rittenhouse Square

Sonesta Philadelphia Rittenhouse Square

6/10 Okay
"Toilet was covered with dried yellow urine and hairs. It was also running none stop until we adjusted the float switch. Pool had no towels for the first hr+ of being open. Bar opens way too late for a Saturday. Also Ruth’s Chris is one of our favorite restaurants but the one in this hotel fell short of the standards that has been set. Manager needs needs to do more than stand there missing endless times he could engage, manage and create a environment worth sending $300 on dinner"
