Rooms had kitchenettes complete with fridge and microwave. Ample sized. No bellhop readily available. No room service, but excellent food available for pick up at the reception desk. A stylish, modern facility at a good price. Excellent "cooked" breakfast. Surprisingly complete amenities.
Generally met expectations. Modern & clean upon arrival. Room service only done Q3days, which I guess is just the new norm. Certainly don't need clean linen daily, but would be nice to at least have the in-room drip coffee re-stocked daily, without having to call and request.
Like most cities these days, it's pretty raw on the streets adjacent, but Element can't control that.
Amazing I would love to go back for my birthday May 13th

Disliked: Amenities
The valet parking situation is a disaster. After driving 7 hours to Philly they ask you to wait in your car double-parked for 45 minutes while the police harass you on the street to move your car and they don’t have any place/staff to park it. Retrieving your car to leave is equally difficult. This ruined the entire experience.
