Essington Vacation Packages

The shuttle was a big plus. The staff, especially, Caleb, went out of their way to accommodate. The only suggestion I have is to be consistent with times. Check-out was at 11 a.m. but on the back of the bathroom door it said noon. On the Expedia app and the hotel website it said the Sports Bar was open from 11 a.m. - 11 p.m. but when I went around 1 p.m., I was told it didn't open until 4:30 p.m. Overall great experience and I will be back.

I liked the staff. They were friendly and eager to assist and answer questions. Also, check-in and check-out was easy. Lastly, the valet parking wait time was less than 15 minutes.

Hotel was nice, room was kind of small but served its purpose for the night. Staff was very friendly & welcoming.

I was surprised they did not have mattress protectors/pads, just a fitted sheet on a bare mattress, which was stained. They did bring me extra sheets to layer over the mattress upon request, but suggest they consider adding waterproof mattress pads to protect their mattresses and guests. Otherwise, a comfortable stay in a great location next to the Reading Market and China town. Easy 10-20 min walk to historic sites like the town hall, the famous Love sculpture, and museums. Lots of different kinds of restaurants to choose from in walking distance - we went to Xanadu (Thai fusion) for dinner which was delicious. The parking lot next to the hotel was $40 for 24 hours. While it’s private (not owned by the hotel), this seemed to be more reasonable than other lots downtown. Considering the hotel was also more reasonably priced than other downtown hotels, even with parking the total value was still very good.

Enjoy the stay. Happened to be windy & chilly while there
