I'd always planned to visit Philly when I lived in NY, but knew I wanted to check it off my travel list once I moved away from the North East. When I discovered Roost I was intrigued by the sort of hybrid Hotel-Airbnb experience that it promised, and for the most part it delivers. Lots of space, and a more immersive way to feel like you're apart of the city without having to rely on the competence of an Airbnb host. However, that did comes with a few flaws— The A/C in my room never quite got cold at night, which I couldn't quite tell if it was a bug or a feature. Just a slight annoyance that I didn't feel was worth getting maintenance involved in case it turned into a whole thing. The building is a little on the older side, but the furnishings and appliance all felt up to date. The most disappointing aspect though was the cleanliness. This isn't so much a review to single Roost out, as it is just a general feeling of disappointment that from hotels, to Airbnbs and everything in between, it seems like this is the one aspect that everyone cuts the most corners on. When I first arrived I was wowed by the size and what seemed like attention to detail, but the longer I stayed I began to notice little things that had likely been overlooked by the last cleaning cycle or several. The reason I still rate this a 4/5 is because as I've only stayed here once (and likely will try Roost again in another city), this could just be a room that got overlooked. Not an excuse, but something to consider as I had a little trouble with housekeeping in general. Overall, it's a great location and a great building with some minor corrections that would put it over the top with a little more care.
