Verified Reviews of Homewood Suites by Hilton University City

Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:
"Maybe I expected more."
Overall Score3.0/ 5
Well for a Hilton the beds were terrible. I felt like I was sleeping on a box spring. The rooms have a smell that lingers so I had to buy Lysol spray. The suite itself was okay again I thought a Hilton would be more. The staff were friendly. Valet guys were great. Morning breakfast was great and the distance to PennMed was awesome.
