The area was lovely. Yes, there was I guess a lounge/club nearby and people were loud at night but that's expected in a city. Plenty of places to grab brunch and shop. Cute coffee shop just at the corner of the hotel. My favorite Philly record store and one of my favorite bars was also closeby. Met some cool locals. Will stay in this area again!
