Best 3 Star Hotels in Midtown

"When growing up, my family used to summer at the Crestmont in an Eagles Mayor PA. It was a turn-of-the-century haven for Philadelphia. This place had exactly the same feel; the same windows; beds; doors, etc. The foyer had an eclectic feel: there was a BMW chassis at the check-in. It didn't take away from the place but I don't think it added to it either. We got one of the larger rooms with the sitting room and it was wonderful. All modern conveniences worked well. The old pushbutton on/off switches is worked well too. Parking is easy; it is circuitous from one end of the property to the other. Once established, it wasn't an issue. Arrangements were simple and the renter was responsive. Although we had no in person contact with him, we also have no reason to do so. There are outdoor living areas which are nice. There are common areas where various guests could gather if they liked to do so. Some may be put off by the older beds: they sagged a bit, but I think that was in keeping with the place. It didn't trouble me. I would like to see some of the outdoor trim repainted. If the current owner has just moved into the place and needs to create revenue in order to make these improvements, I understand. I would not like to come back in five years and find out that some of the trim is peeling. I don't get that sense however. What has been done, has been done with care. I think the touchup for the trim will come when time permits. The price is right; great departure from the norm."
