I am trying to book a room for one night in Center City, Philadelphia. Many hotels are booked up (including University City and Airport)! Hey, Philly! Whaz’up this week?

The wife and I stayed [here](http://mysite.verizon.net/lu72/) for a few nights earlier this year and highly recommend it. But there’s a two-night minimum stay. Any chance you could stretch your visit out a little?

Thanks for the recommendation. We’ll consider it, but we have two kids. Sounds like a room might only fit one extra bed (cot).

Try this place:

Lippincott House. (215) 523-9251

It’s a B&B @ Rittenhouse Sq. I’ve had others stay there for odd nights here and there.
