Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Front desk staff were very friendly and courteous, but the hotel itself is definitely not 4 star. The kitchenette floor was sticky, the TV remote felt grimy, only one body towel in the bathroom, etc. The finer details are what separates the best hotels from the average. Not much attention is paid to details here. Plus I object to the policy of openly welcoming the general public to use the bathrooms. That said, I slept comfortably.

My stay was amazing! There was only one hiccup where the shower overflowed into yhe bedroom but other than that it was an amazing stay and I plan to return. I love how clean and cozy it was. The front desk representative was also amazing!

My stay at AKA Rittenhouse was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth, professionalism, and true hospitality. Wister, the front desk representative, went above and beyond to ensure every detail of my stay was seamless. Their attentiveness, kindness, and efficiency made me feel genuinely valued as a guest. Equally impressive was the support and insight provided by the hotel’s budget analyst. Tony, whose behind-the-scenes excellence clearly contributes to the smooth and elevated experience AKA Rittenhouse is known for. He provided great recommendations and made this experience a blast. To mention, Juliet was adorable. The attention to both personal service and operational excellence reflects a team that truly cares about the guest experience. This was more than just a stay—it was a memorable experience rooted in hospitality at its finest. Five stars, well deserved. If I could give 10 stars, I would.
