Yugo Philadelphia Carriage House

At Yugo Philadelphia Carriage House, you’re just a short walk from the University of Pennsylvania and Drexel University, in a neighborhood full of West Philly highlights. Meet your friends at Sabrina’s Cafe for one of the best brunches in the city, then head to Drexel Park to soak up the sunshine while admiring breathtaking downtown views. Meet endangered species like the western lowland gorilla at Philadelphia Zoo or discover a new passion at the Community Education Center, where you can take a class on anything from flamenco dancing to improv theater.

You can walk three minutes from Carriage House to Drexel, or 15 minutes to UPenn. On weekends, use the nearby bus and trolley stops to explore the rest of the city, or take your car. Drive north to see the biggest names in music perform at The Mann Center in 10 minutes, or south to experience the excitement of a Sixers pro basketball game at the Wells Fargo Arena in 15. For adventures closer to home, invest in a bicycle and store it safely on the bike racks when you’re done.

When you don’t feel like exploring, there are plenty of reasons to stay home at Carriage House. At the end of a long day, ride the elevator up to your spacious apartment, grab a cool drink from the fridge, then spread your books out on the dining room table and use the free internet to start your research. Afterwards, work up a sweat in the on-site fitness center, before throwing your clothes in your washer/dryer and freshening up with a hot shower.

When hunger strikes, head through to your apartment’s fully fitted kitchen to cook, and load the dishwasher when you’re done. Meet your friends by the courtyard barbecue area for a change of scene, or choose something to wear from your walk-in closet and go out for dinner. Try Distrito for Mexican small plates in a hip setting, or Lemon Grass Thai Restaurant for some truly delicious exotic ice cream flavors. Rest easy knowing there’s on-site management, controlled access and security patrols to keep your belongings safe.
