Please, someone tell me a good place to stay in Philly. I'm from NY and I'll be traveling the day before the test.

I stayed in the Sheraton University City Hotel. Very nice Hotel. Try to call them directly, they might, and I say "might" :-) give you a discount if you tell them about the exam. Or google hotels around Market Street, some cheaper ones might appear.... Wishing you the best!

I also stayed in the Sheraton University City Hotel which is only 3-minute walk from the test center. I asked for a discount although I was not sure, and they did give me one called "Summer package". This hotel is very nice with wireless internet. The hotel also books the airport shuttle for you when you leave. Good luck.

i have booked for Pens. Tower Hotel for 165 us$ per night including tax. it's 6 blocks away from the exam center. Although i have called Sheraton, they told me they don't have such a discount, so i'm not sure about that. Good luck

hi guys, maybe the Sheraton University city hotel changes their discount conditions from time to time, or according to their room availability. i booked the room more than one month before the exam date. on my receipt, it shows $181 total (including taxes) for one night. it seemed that i got around 35% discount according to their usual rate. good luck.

I booked in the Best Western in the center city for 119 + tax, with the discount. It's like 2 miles away form the center, but I'm driving down to Philly so it doesn't matter. I think it is a good deal.
