Was a guest at The IATSE Ballroom for a graduation party. I had a really good time while there on a…read moreautumn Saturday. I was super happy to see that IATSE offered a parking lot. Yay! Once I walked in, immediately the room of the event was decorated nicely. The ballroom was spacious, decent sized dance floor, and a bar. This particular event had a cash bar with complimentary soft drinks. I ordered a cosmopolitan drink that was made nicely. I peeped that the bar offered casamigos too (nope lol; I drove). The food was absolutely delicious. My favorite was the lobster bisque, salmon, and potatoes! Yummy! The staff were all nice and professional. Overall, this appears to be a nice venue to have a special occasion.

We stayed at the 5400 Ferne Blvd location in Drexel Hill…read more The GOOD : the lobby is big, the eating area is also very big; they have an outside eating area; the buffet is decent: pancakes, premade French toast; eggs(scrambled), bacon, potatoes, no decaffeinated coffee, no water (have to ask for water), yogurt, etc.. The room is large, with small fridge, large shower stall, plenty of soap options, quiet a/c fan, room darkening shades are nice, tv. Is decent with a good selection of channels, free WiFi, THE BAD: the shower stall is slippery as ice. It's almost impossible to stand in it without slipping and sliding. This situation was extremely disconcerting. It's impossible to wash yourself while holding on to grass bars so as not to fall. I went to the front desk and asked if they had shower stall floor mats to help with the slippery floor. They did not. The bath, hand and face towels could not have been any rougher Almost like sandpaper on our the skin. Very cheap towels. The breakfast was reasonably priced. The big issue for me was the 18% gratuity they charge for the staff to do nothing but pick up our two dishes after we were done. When we received the bill, I saw that at the bottom of the receipt was a selection of tip options, 18%, 20%, and 22% gratuity. Other than try to confuse the customer in tipping again, why would you include a gratuity option if you already added the tip??? The booth we selected was right next to her station. While she was charging my credit card to pay for breakfast, she ignored me while she was speaking to someone on the phone. There were only 2 other tables being used, so the morning was slow for her. We sat at the only booth that was close to her, there was a cup of coffee and some coffee spills on the table that were ignored by her. We chose that booth since the booth was the more comfortable choice for us. When I went to my room the house maid was almost done. She let me in after checking to make sure my key fit that room and let me in. She was done in about 2 minutes. As she was leaving she said "thanks for the tip". I said "what". She repeated herself and said "thank you for the tip". I said ok. I texted my wife and asked her if she left a tip for the house cleaner. My wife said no, that we always tip on the last day of our stay. What I do remember is leaving $5 on the tv stand with a lot of other items. So she either took money from the tv stand, which I found odd or she was thanking me in advance to tipping her later. I found that her thanking me in advance for her to was unusual. Then I remembered the $5 I left and it was now gone. I found it to be unusual that she would thank me in advance for the tip. Either scenario was not correct. I expect that money I put down on a table be left alone and that I should not expect the cleaners to pick up money lying around and assume it's for them. If that's the current procedure then it's my fault. Overall there was some good and some bad. I'd give this One star for the shower, towels, and restaurant tip and house cleaner tip confusion. Five Stars for the quietness, cleanliness and the comfortable bed.

We booked a dual 50th birthday party for my husband and my sister. Let me start with the owner and…read morethe staff and the bartenders are all amazing! The owner and the Staff were extremely knowledgeable, so friendly and kind and they made my husband's and his sister's birthday celebration and night to remember! The banquet hall is beautiful. The bathrooms are preferably cleaned right down to the the corners of the bathroom floor. The bartenders know how to make everything drink you can think of. Of course we had outside catering which you are allowed to do and the owner and Staff worked with getting me and my team of event Staff a seamless day into celebration at night of May 2. I highly highly recommend booking the banquet hall for any event that you need. Because we will be booking again in the near future.

She was responsive and helpful and went above and beyond our expectations. The food at both the cocktail hour and dinner were delicious. Our guests never wanted for a drink. Our guests were well fed and appropriately served through the entire evening. Ella was great and checked in with us often to make sure we did not need anything. Don't let the outside area fool you - the interior is beautiful, unique, and memorable! We added lots of string lights but it's the type of venue that does not need much to impress. The old wood floors and the artistic chandeliers add so much character. We honestly wouldn't have changed anything from the evening and would recommend without hesitation hosting a wedding reception here.

There was a sign that it's $10 for non members to enter. I was told this isn't heavily enforced. Membership is only $25 per house hold. Food portions were generous and priced less than what I expected. We did not order food but these are food photos of items ordered by some of our friends at other tables. Another friend ordered the spinach dip and pita and that looked amazing! People said they really enjoyed the food they ordered. I wasn't thrilled with the service. The Waitress didn't want to separate checks which was weird because we're seated with strangers. Eventually they came up with a way to accommodate separate checks using numbered signs when they realized people weren't ordering. I don't know if she was new and didn't know this was an option but her communication style was not great and I know some people did not order because of it. Several of us opted to get our own drinks at the bar and eat elsewhere after the event because of the service. Also wanted to mention that half of the stalls in the women's bathroom had broken locks. I hope someone addresses that because no one wants a visitor when using a public restroom. This really is a beautiful venue with other spaces available for parties. I hope to have a better experience next time I'm there.

Bathrooms were not tended to at the 300 ppl wedding, it was gross. The appetizers were too different and nothing was labeled, the attendants didn't speak English and weren't much help, what if we had food allergies, in which we do, It kept us from eating food. The food was subpar the salmon was bland and not much crabmeat. The green beans were not even cooked and were flavorless. The ribeye was way over cooked. The desserts trays were the cheap mini options and cookies. A few breakfast type options were unique for a wedding. Bottom line, it was just ok, nothing great.

Luckly, another usher corrected her and said they are still letting people in, can you freaking imagine if they just turned people away that traveled hours away to attend? I get if even if you arrive late to say a baseball game the stadium security guard will wait for a pause in action to let you in but to be this mis trained when you're primarily function is to let people into the event just wow. Anywho, that is how the night started off. The Hor-devas were laid out in a way that an entire level of food was so high up on shelves people either didn't even see it or couldn't reach it. Btw, I am close to six feet tall, and I couldn't see the food. Now for the positive, they had ample amounts of food and on there website it even says its all inclusive so you do not have to pay for x amount of refills I am assuming which is very nice. I even recall during the cocktail hour I was wondering this fact as the refills were plentiful. Now, the big shitshow of the night was the seating. I don't think I can put this on the venue however as I legit couldn't find a seat for myself at one of the tables! This is why you should have placement cards like at a wedding. My gf and I left as soon as the dinner buffet was set up as I am not pulling up a chair to a table without a freaking plate setting. Also, I must mention the music was extremely loud. My gf had to put freaking ear plugs in. Very disappointing night but again I can't put all of the blame on the facility. I hope my cousin and his family enjoyed their night as I know I didn't. As always people SYOY!!!
