Hi,

I have an interview at PCO in a few weeks, and I am visiting from Canada, so I am very unfamiliar with the area. Does anyone have any suggestions on hotels or best way to get there from Philadelphia International Airport?

I'm a little nervous because I'm going to be all by myself!! 😕

Any tips would be greatly appreciated! 🙂
 
i personally recommend a shuttle service from the airport. i used shuttle king and they were prompt and the cheapest i was able to find. for hotel, i booked through travelocity.com and was able to get club quarters in philly since i planned on touring the city for the weekend. the hotel is actually a member only accomodation for business people mainly so it was very quiet and nice inside. hope that helps and good luck.
 
You must have been the one that posted this advice in the interview feedback! I'm taking it, and staying at Club Quarters in a couple weeks. I want to be able to tour around the day before when I get there, but I don't know how much I'll get to do since I'll be arriving the day before my interview around noon, then leaving the night of my interview day.

Thank you so much for your feedback! 😀

Hey, Im doing the same thing, arriving the day before, and leaving after the interview. I wonder why everyone is choosing Club Quarters? Is it kind of far from the College? I looked at Courtyard at Marriot, and was thinking about there... but everyone seems to be staying at Club Quarters. Any reason? Just curious!

check out Hampton Inn. Its about 4 miles north of the college in Willow Grove. (Its on the same road even) Its a good place to stay if you are on a budget as they give discounts to PCO visitors.
 
i specifically chose a hotel in the middle of philly because i wanted to tour the city. i arrived on a sat for a monday interview. there's no discounts but travelocity is pretty cheap.
