Ashley is referring to the SEPTA here. For you out-of-towners, Septa is the regional rail system, and one of the main stops on most of the lines is the 30th street station, which is just a few minutes walk from the regional. You can stay almost anywhere that's near a septa stop http://www.septa.org/maps/click_map.html and if your line goes to 30th street station, you're "good to go." Incidentally, 30th street station is also a good place to go for lunch as it has a pretty good selection of take-away and fast food in its eatery area. Team 708 is excited to see you all in Philly!
