The Conwell Inn

“Highly recommend!!!”

A great, charming and comfortable haven in the middle of a very large, very busy city.

A great, charming and comfortable haven in the middle of a very large, very busy city. We were lucky that we met a wonderful mom and her daughter at Temple Nuclear Medicine who told us about this gem (Thank you lovely ladies!). Our room (King) had everything we needed and was extremely comfortable! However, the very best part of this experience was the very lovely, intelligent and so incredibly helpful young women that work for The Conwell Inn! Gisselle was my overnight Angel and was incredibly kind, sweet and helpful!!! Tori was our check-in sweetheart who was also helpful, sweet and kind and both went above and beyond to help both my husband and myself with everything from checking in, finding local places that deliver food, helping with making my very early morning coffee lol, etc. Kudos to whoever hired these wonderful young women!!! Will definitely stay again in the very near future!!!

“Perfect Location for Temple, Nice Staff”

Although this hotel is quaint and a bit older, the location is absolutely perfect. We came for a college visit and everything was right exactly where we needed. No need to park or Lyft except for to and from the airport. That itself made it very economical. We did have a small item or two that we … more

Although this hotel is quaint and a bit older, the location is absolutely perfect. We came for a college visit and everything was right exactly where we needed. No need to park or Lyft except for to and from the airport. That itself made it very economical. We did have a small item or two that we needed adjusted, but the staff was very accommodating and so super nice. At the end of the day, no hotel is perfect, but at least when people want to help make it a positive experience, it goes along way (Everyone I talked to went above and beyond… and Tori, and Ms. Clark our housekeeping person was so kind and friendly, they treated us more like family which is a nice change from a chain.) It’s connected to a coffee shop, a 7-Eleven, and a pizza place all within 500 feet. I will say that address is tricky because the front of the hotel is on a walkway, which is nice because it’s not busy and it’s quiet, but if you’re lyfting or trying to find a parking lot, it takes an extra amount of effort, so plan for that. Worth it to be on campus! Will go back.

“I would have given it a 5... but... *bed&parking :(”

I would have given it a 5... but... that bed was too terribly soft and felt like it sank in the middle to the point where it negatively impacted sleep and even moving throughout the night to shift to a new sleeping position was difficult, uncomfortable and painful...

I would have given it a 5... but... that bed was too terribly soft and felt like it sank in the middle to the point where it negatively impacted sleep and even moving throughout the night to shift to a new sleeping position was difficult, uncomfortable and painful... It wasn't just me; it was my partner too. I will ignore the light pollution in the room as the lights are off and the parties outside the room because we know it's a college campus... but I feel bad leaving a 4/5 star review but I could not justify that bed! We got a lack of sleep throughout our stay. Before management comes for us with a response of "why didn't you say anything during the stay?!" I saw other reviews about the soft beds and there is no way you could have helped if we said anything. Get moved to a new room with another terrible bed? That's okay, we dealt with it but felt we weren't the only ones suffering. Cleaniness, comfortability, location, and friendliness of staff: 5 out fo 5 stars! Literally don't have anything negative to say about those items. Sadly... the bed severely negavetly impacted our stay. Yes, the sink doesn't have a lot of space for usage but that didn't combat the bed situation. We don't know if we will be back in the area soon but if we are we will consider that mattress situation... There was an odd situation with an inexperienced employee not knowing why we were getting charged something or not getting charged, etc... she said "just tell the openers in the morning that I don't know what is happening and they can figure it out and your bill and what's happening..." Sometimes the door would not lock as we left but I did tell the person we checked out with that it was having issues. She said she was thankful for the information and will pass it along to the building matieince people. Oh, and the parking was fine. SMALL (ex-small) spaces and you gotta be lucky to get one! Yes, they might tow illegal parkers BUT they seem to fill up fast. We had our car inches from another car (each side of the car) also just trying to park for the hotel... expect dings and scrapes and no room to open doors, etc. heads up. $20 a night is excessive BUT at least you can probably park for the area?!
