The Study is beautiful and the staff are amazing! This hotel is less than five minutes walk to my daughter’s dorm at Drexel University. We didn’t rent a car so Drexel staff helped us move by using one of their golf carts. Drexel staff drove the golf cart of course. It was very convenient for us to stay here. The bus stop and the metro are walking distance as well if you want to explore Philly.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Study at University City. Most of all we were impressed by the friendliness and professionalism of the staff. From the front desk, to the restaurant, and their housekeeping staff, everyone was so nice and accommodating. We wished that more of the non-suite rooms had a small refrigerator, but we asked the restaurant staff for a bucket of ice (there are no ice machines on the room floors), and we were able to keep most of things cold which needed to be kept cold.
