Where the beds are, and what that means for the visit.
Strawberry Mansion suits travellers who want a residential base in Philadelphia rather than a room in the downtown core. Lodging here is thin on the ground. The neighbourhood runs among quiet blocks near the John Coltrane House and the Jefferson Street Grounds, within the Pennsylvania city.
Quiet holds these blocks. If you would rather stay by Hatfield House and Mount Pleasant than in the busy centre, Strawberry Mansion offers a settled corner.
