Going to philly for a weekend and planning to get a hotel for myself to just chill and unwind. What hotels do y’all recommend that have slightly luxurious vibes but decently priced? Was going to book the Sheraton downtown but not blown away by the reviews. Thanks !

Interesting, that sounds like fun. I would say Kimpton might be up your alley? Should have everything you need, too.

Agree. They will also give you a fish to keep you company.

Definitely avoid the Sheraton. Kimptons are solid options, same with Renaissance, Loews and Sofitel. Also there's a brand new Element

Sofitel and Sonesta are great options. They’re also right by Rittenhouse so you’ll be in the mix of it all.

I racked up about $20k in credit card debt due to a confluence of things happening at once (move, school expenses , etc ). I have a fair amount of paper assets but not a much free cash. Assets are down a decent amount with the current market cycle and I’d prefer not to sell them to cover the debt , although they easily could. Any suggestions how to handle the credit card debt without racking up tons of ongoing card interest?
