“Sheraton Philadelphia University City emphasizes service, particularly for families visiting the nearby universities and hospitals. I was impressed by the on-site dining at Sang Kee Noodle House, which offers authentic Asian cuisine-a nice departure from standard hotel fare. The location in University City also puts guests within easy reach of Philadelphia's iconic attractions.”
