Frommer's "This renovated 1802 Quaker farmhouse is the cheapest and most bucolic overnight in town." Full review
Time Out "Hosts travelers in its antique-decorated space. There are a total of 80 beds in a dormitory setting. Chill out on the front porch or by the marble fireplace or use the facility’s free bikes." Full review

Due to its secluded location, having a car or some sort of transportation is ideal.

" In its public areas, set with antiques, harp, oriental rugs and paintings, the place is more like a B&B than a hostel; the dorms themselves are basic. " Full review

"Hotel Monaco — a cobblestone’s throw from Philadelphia’s historic attractions — is a layer cake of whimsical furnishings and audacious colours baked in the mould of an early-20th-century bank building." Full review

Make sure to take a trip up to the Stratus Rooftop Lounge—one of the best rooftop bars Philadelphia has to offer—to relax after sunset with an aperitif under the twinkling night sky.
