Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Philadelphia Airport

6/10 Okay

"The room was clean, but there was a weird smell. Also, the shower drained into the bathroom floor making it very slippery. Not a lot food choices convenient. Breakfast was okay"

Red Roof Inn PLUS+ Philadelphia Airport

4/10 Poor

"You definitely get what you pay for here. My husband and I stayed here for one night, originally it was going to be for two but I’m glad we changed our plans. I feel that the photos in the listing are very misleading. The property is quite questionable. It mainly feels like you’re staying in a run down apartment building. The photos show bright, clean rooms whereas the room we had was dark and gloomy. Neither of the lights above the bed turned on and there were only outlets on one side of the bed. The shower is definitely old and has not been updated in who knows how long. Many people just hanging out outside the “lobby” or in the parking lot. Quite the experience, but probably would not come back."

Quality Hotel Philadelphia Airport

2/10 Terrible

"It was a rat hole. Wall paper falling down, the tub had yellow stuff in it. The sheets had burnt holes, 2 of the lights didnt work and it was hot as hell even with the ac. Was supposed to stay for 3 days 2 nights. Handed my key in after one night of stay and went else. I know it's a cheap hotel, but still shouldn't be That crappy. -10/10 DO NOT recommend, save your self and spend a few more bucks for somewhere that isnt here."

Red Roof Inn & Suites Newark - University

8/10 Good

"We used public transportation rather than rent a car: The bus stop was conveniently located right outside of the hotel for local use or for a transfer to the Amtrak station; restaurant options were within walking distance, and Ubers were available within minutes."
