Cute and convenient. Great location and was an easy checkin. Bed was comfy and although it’s a small room, if you’re just in town for a weekend then a good pick. It was loud on the street but we were there on a Saturday night.

Inn on Camac was a delight. I heard about the Inn last year at U-Bar (downstairs) when a guest arrived to check in. This year it offered a great rate in Center City. I decided to try. Check in was quite easy with the staff downstairs at U-Bar, which is open until 2am. I was just one flight up (above the center of the bar) yet heard no noise from the bar. One likely hears people on the street - Locust and side street Camac are lively with bars and restaurants, though it wasn't excessive. The room was nicely furnished - I had a Queen Studio #2. There're two end tables on either side of bed, a large desk at window overlooking Camac, a closet with safe and fridge for storage, a small chest for clothes and a full-length mirror. The bath was about half the size of the room - one of the most spacious I've seen in any hotel. A large stall shower which would hold two people easily, sink/vanity and frosted window for light. The windows do open if one wishes. The toiletries were very nice and good quality. There's a side entrance opened by keycard from the street if one doesn't wish to enter through the bar. The bar has a nice menu of small plates and bites served until 10:30pm, and meal service can be arranged with companion restaurant Tavern on Camac, which has a menu in the room. There are no additional amenities (access to a gym or special rate through the Inn is an idea) though one can barely find a more convenient and charming place to stay. Note: no elevator. Will stay again!

Staff was not friendly. No WIFi password given, TV broken, toilet cracked, water in sink, no coffee maker in room. Hotel hard to find, in a gay area - which we are 100% comfortable with - but that comfort was not reciprocated. Wish we’d had more details before booking.

The check-in process wasn't the best. Apparently there some kind of kick ball tournament going on & the bar was crazy busy!! It took probably 20 minutes to finally get to the manager to check us in. The room was very nice except for the fact that it was freezing!! We kept adjusting the thermostat but it kept going back to original setting. You couldn't turn it off either. We just put the extra quilt on the bed. The blind in front of the bed was coming unloose from the window & a lot of light was coming in around it. I like a dark room to sleep too. There wasn't a bulb in one of bedside lights. We asked for that to be fixed but it never was. There was a lot of noise from the alley that could be heard in our room, but I had read about this. Luckily my sound machine blocked it out.All in all, it was a nice stay.

No customer service.

Well my flight to Philly got cancelled. During the delays to flight I could not reach anyone with the hotel to know how to check in for arrival after 2am. I left a message and no one ever called back. So even if the flight had happened I wouldn’t have been able to check in. Since then I’ve left another voicemail and sent 2 messages trying to see if there is anything we can do for a refund. The only thing I’ve received from them is a bill for a stay I never made.

Super cute inn! Would stay again. Take note its not an accessible building, stairs only for the three story building with the inn being the second and third floor. Saw some stains on the comforter (pillows, sheets and everything else in the room was super clean though!) and the temperature fan controls in the room were a touch finiky but i figured it out and it was very effective once on. I adored the location! super easy to walk to many historical sites, shopping and food. Take note its above a bar so the evenings are kinda loud but was fine for me. I'd stay here again for a really central location at a good price! The area also felt very safe and clean too

What is not apparent from online search is that Inn on Camac is basically 6 lovely rooms above the UBar at corner of Locust and Camac, and that the checkin is at the bar itself. No problems with staff attention. They took care of the procedure in a minute. The Inn per se has a private entrance on Camac, accessible with the room key card. The rooms are excellent, and the location is perfect.

The property was convenient but the Air conditioning was out for the duration of my stay. Luckily it was cool enough that the temperature in my room never got above 75 but never dropped below 74. I survived although I keep my room at home at 65. The house keeper gave me a box fan which really helped. I think the convenience still made it worth my stay but I think the inn should have offered me some type of a discount for my inconvenience.

Like others have said: I would have easily gave it a five if it weren't for the bar downstairs. I had to wait in the bar for a few minutes because I came during happy hour, although the host/bartender was extremely friendly, and offered a drink while I waited, it was a bit awkward having to sign paperwork at the bar. The music also goes till 2 am. I was able to drown out the noise by turning the TV volume up, but both nights I was woken up around 1:30 by the same three people yelling and scream laughing in the alley, not sure if they were employees of a business there or what. Even though I didn't need to use it, my refrigerator didn't work, and there's not really a way to report it, so I had warm drinks I bought the night before. TDLR: very clean, comfortable rooms with nice security, but very unprofessional feeling.

Small boutique hotel with 6 rooms recently remodeled and ultra clean on the 2nd and 3rd floors. Very quiet considering that there is bar downstairs. Their insulation system is great—the only noise was from patrons outside the bar—but very minimal despite of being in the heart of a thriving city. Would definitively stay there again.

If you just want a comfy bed and nothing else ...

Cute place, great location, pretty much feel on your own. AC was not turned on and windows open ...and it was 90*. The AC didn't drop below 80 for about 7 hours. some random hairs that weren't mine in the bathroom. No idea wifi code (wasn't given to me by bartender when I checked in). No idea when checkout is. Nice place if you just want a bed to lay in but if you want a little more hi-touch look elsewhere.

The code for the Wi-Fi didn’t work which I discovered at midnight as my room was shaking from the music booming downstairs as our room was directly over a bar. The noise from music and bar guests and horns honking went on until about 3.30 when I managed a couple of hours sleep before at 7 or 8 when furniture was being what sounds like tossed around the bar and then more booming music started. I honestly don’t know how this is supposed to be a hotel because it was nearly impossible to sleep and lord knows I tried! The area is great and if you are looking to flop somewhere after a night of drinking at 4am this might work but didn’t work for me.

Cute, friendly. Good location for gayborhood, street facing rooms noisy on a weekend night. operated through U-bar downstairs, odd to arrive during rush hour at the bar.
some things didn't work- heat system was out, they gave us an uncleaned space heater. The water pressure was odd, pulsing in the shower. The safe battery was out and had to be replaced to work for us. Bed was decent but with a shin-buster frame design. They offered bag storage service for the day.

Water temp warm at best. Curtains broken in room — no privacy. Drunken people from bar below shouting in alley until late at night. I decided to cut my visit short from three to one night.

Cute but not worth it

The hotel is actually run by the bar downstairs so there is no lobby and the phone is only open for non-emergency situations starting at 10am. The room was cute but lots of stuff was broken and I could hear the music from the bar until they closed at 2am. I walked past a number of times earlier in the night and the music wasn’t even that loud, so it’s just bad sound proofing. Shower pressure was also super spotty, it pretty much totally died every few seconds and then would spurt out.

Word of advise, the place is upstairs from a bar and can get a bit noisy on weekends and holidays, but it’s a great location. Just sleep with earplugs if you go to sleep before 1am.

AC didn’t work - room was 85*

The noise was actually not much of a problem. The biggest problem was that the AC did not work and the room was 85 miserable degrees. The TV also didn’t work. I attempted to get help, but seemed as though there is no one available for these emergent issues. The room was so uncomfortably warm that I ended up spending the last night of my booked trip at a different hotel, incurring additional cost.

This all said, the Inn is in a great location, the housekeeping person was really nice, and the noise (so long as you expect it) is not bad. Just don’t go in warm weather.

If you rate your hotels by the towels provided, this one wins hands down. I was sorely tempted to pack them in my luggage.
