Yes, the hotel is located in a perfect location right on Rittenhouse Square. And yes, the rooms are great for an extended stay (think AirBnB meets elegant hotel). But I want to give a shout out to the team --- in particular Sinhaja and Ellisha. My initial room had some issues that frustrated me. They turned a "lemon" into "lemonade" ---- appreciated my concerns and got me into a different, magnificent room.

We had a great time in AKA. The double rooms were awesome. So much space for us. Wister was great at the front desk when we had questions.

Perfect location in Rittenhouse square. Rooms are always lovely and the secure WiFi is a great perk. Wister (from desk concierge) turned around a terrible day with his thoughtful and caring service. Food and bar are some of the best in Philadelphia.
