Parking: convenient on-site parking

“The Conwell Inn, nestled on Temple University's campus, presents a unique blend of historical charm and convenient access to the university and nearby hospitals; the reasonable parking rates, a definite plus, set it apart from pricier downtown options. While updates are in order, and some may find the mattresses too soft, the welcoming staff and complimentary touches like evening cookies add a layer of comfort. It's a solid choice for those prioritizing location and a touch of collegiate atmosphere.”
