Great location right on main road. Easy access to shopping and restaurants in the area. Nothing fancy but room was spacious and clean. Nice to have microwave and refrigerator in room. Couch in room is nice plenty of outlets including USB ports to charge phones. Staff very nice and accomodating. Bar and breakfast area were nice. Hotel still has some issues with transient guests but is addressing this issue at check-in. Overall perfect for my needs especially the location being less than 5 miles from my family.

The property needs much maintenance. Examples. The first room we were given, the rack for hanging up clothes was missing. A section of bricks edging the pool were missing. Bushes and shrubs around pool area are overgrown and need trimming. A laundry chute for used pool towels was padlocked and thus people just threw towels on the floor. Fresh towels for the pool were not refilled timely thus when we went to the pool there were no towels.

The carpet in the hallways and rooms smells. The person at the desk tried to find a room, and after three tries, we found one that didn't smell quite as bad as the others. The breakfast for $10.00 was no bargain and was pretty sparse. The three pillows on the beds were so thin that they equalled one normal sized pillow. The television control didn't work unless you were six inches from the t.v.. The staff in general tried to be helpful, but were greatly hampered by the facility. Oh, and I also got stuck in one of the antique elevators, until a workman showed up to help. Fortunately, it was only a minute as the guy was already coming to work on it. A sign would have been nice. Place needs a total upgrade.

Seems like a family may have purchased the property and only doing the bare minimum to keep it running to make money. Extremely understaffed. Starting to get rundown. Ice machines were not functioning. AC in room was not working and not dehumidifying properly. usb for chargers in the room did not work. Outlets either didn’t work or were loose and not making proper contact. Good thing we were only there for one night and only there to sleep/shower.

The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and there was ample parking available throughout the day. I stayed here for a quick business trip to the area, and it met my needs. My schedule is sporadic, so it was a big help that the front desk is open 24/7 for late check ins. I will definitely stay again if/when I’m back in the area

The room was FILTHY. There were a pile of black curly hairs next to the bathroom sink and we found stray hairs in the bed, on the tv stand, and in the shower. I tried calling the front desk to get the issue resolved as was either met with a busy signal or line disconnected alert. The back entrance to the building doesn't lock so anyone can enter thee building without a key and the whole building smelled like crayon wax. It was truly awful I debated sleeping in the car.

Old and showing it age. I stated two nights, they didn't make the bed or empty to trash. Only one of the lamps worked. There is a snake pit of extension cords under the desk. If you want to use the Microwave you need to get down on your hands and knees, unplug the refrigerator. Only a few of the charging ports work. I had no interest in crawling around trying to sort out what plugs needed to swapped out. The only reason this place is still open is an electrical Inspector and or the Fire department has not been been there recently or they are afraid to go it.

There were no linens on blanket or pillows for the pull out couch, took 2 trips to the front desk to get them. The breakfast was decent and affordable.

This was the worst hotel room I’ve ever stayed in—and I travel often. To make matters worse, the air conditioning wouldn’t go below 72 degrees, so the room stayed uncomfortably warm. The room itself was extremely outdated, musty, and damp. On top of that, the pillows were tiny—more like throw pillows than proper bed pillows. Very disappointing stay.

We checked in alright and it was smooth enough. Checkout was also very smooth. That being said, we had reservations for a room with a king bed and sofa bed and had to be "downgraded" to a two double bed room because of a "system update" and the rooms were "booked out." There was no communication beforehand of a change to our reservation's status. With having two small children, we had picked the room specifically for that need. On top of that, there was a smell of marijuana in the hallway. This can't be helped without PA law enforcement, but it was not something we expected or want to expose our young children to. If it was just my wife and I, things would have been more tolerable.

I have stayed in the hotel many times and recommended to others. That has stopped. Desk clerk rude. I booked 2 queen beds got 1 double bed for 2 people not related. Very unhappy will not go again. In the past 10 years I have probably stayed here many many times. I have a trip coming up not even considering this hotel. Worst experience ever this time. Many hotels in area need to find my new favorite place to give my money to.

When I checked in the younger man at the desk barely spoke to me and then picked up his cell phone and began speaking to someone else in his native language while checking me in. I didn’t even have the opportunity to ask any questions. He charged my card without stating how much he would charge or if there would be a temporary hold of any kind for incidentals. He told me nothing about parking, check out time, or WiFi. I was then quickly rattled off that I had to walk down the hall to the right for the elevator. What he didn’t mention was that I had to walk down 2 hallways on the right past 3 multipurpose rooms and the bar to find the elevators. When I asked if there was a luggage cart available he said “yes but nobody brought them back” and that was that. I had manage all my luggage and extras for an event I was attending without a cart. Check in was the worst but it didn’t end there. Trying to get clean towels and extra toilet paper was another chore. I don’t think I would be staying here if my event wasn’t in this hotel but i definitely won’t be staying here next time regardless of where the event is taking place.

Guest service was the bare minimum at best. The hotel was very nickel and dime and everytime I had a question for them they mentioned that I booked through Expedia and treated me like a leper. I requested early check and called ahead and they said it would be no problem. However, when I arrived they seemed put out by the early check in like it was a burden for them and charged me $30 for the privilege. The room was old and needed a refresh. The fridge's condenser was ticking over like a metronome the entire time i was there. They mentioned that there was breakfast in the morning between 6-9am. I went to go check it out and I was greeted by a lady reading the paper. When she acknowledged my presence she pointed out that Breakfast was $10- I was under the impression it was complimentary. I politely declined and then she replied that it wasn't much money. To me that was not the point. It was just awful communication and customer service. When I went to check out, I requested a copy of my bill and they stated that they couldn't because I had booked through Expedia. So if you want to stay at a hotel that doesn't provide any service or looks at you as if you are interrupting their day please by all means stay here.

Pros: Cheap, plenty of parking, convenient, fun for the kids, clean towels, and clear pool. Cons: Breakfast ain’t free ($8.95 per person), rooms aren’t sterile clean, and guests (kids) can be loud/or in the hallway. If you’re not a Karen, you’ll appreciate this place. I stayed on a Saturday night last minute with my two teens and infant for a basketball tournament! They had a blast! There was many people/kids at the pool. Pool felt great after a hot day! MaWa was right at the corner (no alcohol), but Bar with food and music at the hotel was a plus. Was room the super clean? No. Did they have hot water and good pressure? Yes. Was the bed a Tempur-pedic? No. Did the TV work and have cable? Yes. Did some of the hallways smell of smoke? Yes. Was the employees nice and helpful? Yes. Do you get your moneys worth? Yes. Hope this review helps you decide to stay here or not!
