all in all agood expeience. I got there very late and ombody had already taken the pillow and blanket. I was too tired to go downstairs and get others. Maybe a sign: Late comers need blanket, pillow. do not take.

The activities etc at night were great but most off all I was impressed with how clean the room and kitchen were! I also like the small touches that you dont get in most hostels, it was clear to me that everything is carefully thought of to make people feel welcome

It was a great hostel experience, however, we paid 40 bucks for a night in a room of around 20 people ( I can not remember exactly but there was enough space) and we didnt even get breakfast. I feel that this hostel takes advantage of its monopol posistion in old Philly.

Hi Reka, I'm happy that you enjoyed your stay with us. I'm not sure why you wrote that we don't provide breakfast as you stayed with us on a Saturday night and on Sunday morning we had a free breakfast as we do every Friday, Saturday and Sunday morning. We also have a deal with a 1960's America diner for a cheap breakfast every morning. We also provided free beer the day you checked in. I'm not sure why you think we're taking advantage of our great location when we provide the best service and many free amenities.

A small hostel in a nice part of Philadelphia , but without much of an atmosphere. I stayed in a private bunk room but didn't have a bathroom in the room or even on that floor. Still, good value for money.

Central location, friendly staff! Although I slept in a room with more than 10 people, it was quiet and clean. There is also a nice common room just at the entrance. Next time I would choose this hostel again.

I absolutely loved staying at Apple. Clean, safe, great staff, excellent environment,. I've stayed at many hostels and Apple is easily one of the best I've ever stayed in. Thanks very much for a great week.

I was there 4 nights. Great location, helpful and nice staff, clean, cute, quick Wi-Fi everywhere, coffee and tea 7/24 in the kitchen, small lockers in the room and some other bigger just outside, enought showers and the female dorm with a lot of people is the silentest room ever! I'd definately recommend it.

Best Hostel i've stayed in. Staff were helpful and informative. Location was epic. Close to everything. Regular events and nights on to encourage socialization between travelers. Massive bedrooms - breezy and fresh. Exceptional shower and toilet facilities. Wendys just around the corner. Liberty Bell yards away!

I only stayed here for one night. I had a great time here. It was the night of the bar crawl, so it was cheap drinks and getting to know others in the hostel. a great night had by all!! :-) You don't have much choice in philly, but this is a good place to stay!!
