Best Western Plus Philadelphia Airport South at Widener University

I had a two-night reservation. One night solo, one with my adult kids who were flying in. I left after one night. This hotel is in a VERY sketchy area. There was a fight in the hallway outside my room. Questionable activities in the room across the hall. Very loud. Homeless beggars on the sidewalk outside. I did not feel safe at all. Please research this area of Philly BEFORE booking. Wish I had.

The hotel’s location is perfect for university visits, sporting events, and the airport. The staff were very kind and welcoming. The hotel itself is quite old. The beds were not comfortable, and the pillows were lumpy. During our stay, there was a winter vortex and the heater in our room did not work, so we had to request extra blankets. The blankets in the room were more like hospital-style blankets rather than the typical soft, hotel bedding. That said, the staff were understanding and allowed us a late checkout, which we appreciated.

I am so grateful for the amazing staff, delicious meals and outstanding service at Best Western Plus Philadelphia Airport Staff this week. They went above and beyond to ensure the comfort and safety of their guests, and I will definitely be back on my next trip back to Widener University.❤️ (For anyone contracting or visiting the University, it is a must stay - just a block or two from campus. Uno's pizza across the street is wonderful and the staff was extremely accommodating and kind.) Thank you so much for making this Midwest girl feel at home during my visit to Chester. See you again soon! 🔧🤗❤️

Positive: The staff were very accommodating. Negative: Not really a "airport" hotel. Too far away.

The room is spotless and spacious. I stayed in a king bed suite. Had a very nice shower, and breakfast was good. Wonderful host there; she went above and beyond in service. Would stay here again for sure.
