Great location for the price

While we stayed at The Capital Plaza Inn & Suites in Harrisburg, we went to Hershey Park and Dutch Wonderland. The hotel was small, but nice. We were not very close to the parks as advertised. The hot tub was nice but it was outside. Otherwise, the stay was great!!!!!!!!!!!

Good for the price

Clean room, friendly staff, nice breakfast area, good place for the money. On the bad side, a fair amount of road noise, the TV remote was in bad shape.
