"Great Hotel Near Thomas Jefferson Hospital"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
My husband was an emergency patient at Thomas Jefferson Hospital. The hospital did not know how long he would be a patient there so I made a reservation for five days. Because of the type of surgery he had, he was a patient for 9 days. The front desk staff was incredibly kind and patient with me as I had to keep extending my stay on a daily basis. We will be back for additional surgeries and I will definitely be staying here. I would like to add that I have stayed here in the past for the same reason and have always been treated well. Keep up the good work!
