Hostels in Pennsylvania

Great affordable stopover on the GAP trail. While Rockwood doesn’t have a lot going on, there’s a nice brewing company right down the street, a dollar store, and a pizza place. Spacious bathrooms, good water pressure, and coin op laundry. Good break from camping on trail.

I got in late so I didn't actually get to meet the host, but she was super warm and accommodating by phone and set me up with everything I needed to settle in for a couple nights. I even got a room to myself because they wanted me to feel comfortable and safe because the rest of the people staying there were men. There aren't many provisions around the neighborhood, so bring everything you need. There was a helpful dollar store a block away which provided me with three days worth of tuna and banana chips, so I was good to go. The locals are kind of scary from afar but when you talk to them they are quite kind and have great stories to share.

Everything went smoothly. Judy communicated with us multiple times and even made sure we knew that restaurants were closed on Sundays so we could plan ahead. The 3 separate bathrooms were clean. The kitchen had appliances and pot, pans, utensils, to make a meal. Everyone cleaned up after themselves. Cute TV room/library. I would recommend staying here to other cyclist riding the GAP trail. The town was also picturesque, like out of a movie. All around great experience.

My first time at a hostel and I expected far less to be supplied. Great living room to relax in and fantastic back porch.

Had a great stay here! Check-in was super easy, and the staff were incredibly nice and helpful throughout. The location is amazing, walking distance to the bus stop, Reading Terminal Market, and so many great food spots. Most places I went were within a 15–20 minute walk. Super convenient and made my trip much smoother.

From the moment I spoke to Anthony on the phone, I was encouraged by his professionalism and warmth as he described McKee Place. He goes above and beyond to help, answering quickly any texts of mine. There is no long waiting period, fine print, or “red tape.” It is relaxing here, quiet, beautiful and practical, from the wrought iron curving staircase to the rolling chair in front of the desk in my large bedroom. The temperature is just right, I’m never cold even though we are in the middle of winter. I feel safe here. There is a warm ambience, where I feel I’m around Good People. The rules of this Airbnb are explained very patiently and clearly to me, so we’re all on the same page. There is freedom as I move about the common areas, getting lost in creative hobbies, like making cookies while I listen to the music on my cell. It is home. Very laid-back, no Drama. A space where any goals I have for now or my future are supported.

Great accommodations at a very reasonable price! Clean quiet and a great host. Perfect for long term rental and convenient renewals. Couldn’t ask for more in temporary housing! Thanks to Anthony for his help and services!

I must say that it was a great stay. I felt safe and comfortable all the time. The cleaning lady is doing an exceptional job and I do commend Anthony for keeping up with the weekly cleaning service. Everything looks exactly as described. I must say that if i need a place to stay in Crescent again, McKee Place will be my 1st option. I will also recommend if I know anyone looking for a place in that area. Good job Anthony, all the best in your future endeavors.

Great budget option for visiting Philadelphia. Everything was clean. Signs were intuitive. Stayed in 4-bunk room. Roommates were respectful. The lockers in-room were super handy and very large. Bring your own lock or rent one from the hostel. The shared facilities were clean and well maintained. Note that toilets and showers are in different areas, not together. I didn't take advantage of the free drinks they offered in the common room, but everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves! This hostel is very close to Penn's Landing and the blue line train. Convenient!
