PHL Hotel
Anyone here have any suggestions for a good crew hotel? We're on our second one in a very short time and so far my heater doesn't work and the water from the sink and shower looks like it's from a stagnant pond. Fill the sink up and can barely see the drain. We're currently at the Ramada here that's not too far from the airport and hopefully this will be the last time we're here.

We stay at the Four Points by Sheraton, 5 mins by van, and not too bad

I'm not sure who you're flying for so maybe you've already been at this hotel, but when I was at TSA, we stayed at the Holiday Inn that's basically in the same parking lot as all of the stadiums. It's not all that close to any food or anything and the restaurant in the hotel is horrible. My first night of IOE was in Philly and some drunk baseball fans pulled the fire alarm in the middle of the night and everybody had to evacuate for like 45 minutes. Additionally, the hotel shuttle took way too long to pick us up. I would not recommend it. Sorry I can't tell you anywhere decent.

There is a Hampton Inn right next to the employee lot. Not 2 miles from the airport. The only food is another hotel and a Ruby Tuesday. There is a train stop across the street as well as bus service to downtown for those with long overnights. As far as I know they offer a $50 crew member rate you'd think the company could negotiate something reasonable, after all they got a deal on pilots.
