Property Description
Guestrooms at Ulysses are vessels for transportive and sanctified experiences. Rich in contradiction and teeming with visual myth and rhythm, each room is an idiosyncratic destination all its own, with references culled from Art Deco movie palaces, the filth of John Waters, The Imperial New Delhi, defunct ancient languages, and the color-blocked patterns one sees from a moving train. Each room offers inspired amenities, decadent minibar offerings, a proprietary fragrance, custom bath products, and color televisions. Beds are outfitted with handmade quilts inspired by the iconic Baltimore Album Quilts, and emblazoned with invented languages. (We think this makes for better dreaming.)

Front desk service was welcoming and accommodating. We were worried we might not make it to the checkin deadline. But the receptionist noted our situation and made sure we were able to have a room. The receptionist was informative on what the Inn offer such as breakfast and events.

Selina who works the registration desk was AMAZING. The cleaning staff Alecia was efficient as well. Great small place to stay, feel safe and be in heart of downtown Philadelphia.

The Philly Special is not continental breakfast Everything about my vacation was elite except for the breakfast. Dry old bagels, old cereal no one eats, a small plate of fruit and awful coffee. I have no idea how a business charges what they do and offers such poor food options in the morning.
