For the price a nice clean hotel.

Friendly staff, clean rooms and the price was reasonable. The only draw back is the noise level is a little high with the PA turnpike so near.

Nice place for a short visit

Needed a 2 night stay close to our daughter for a special event, our first grandchild's Christenting. This hotel served our purpose, as our main goal was a place to sleep for the night. Hotel is older but suprisingly clean. Continental Breakfast was slim, but adequate if you do not have a large appetite and just want something to tide you over to a more adequate meal. Just a little trouble checking in, but it all worked out fine. Would stay here again for convenience sake. P.S. Pool looked nice and clean, but we just didn't have the time.

OK for the Price

Since we were looking for something on the cheap, that was also convenient to visiting friends in Mechanicsburg, as well as Route 15 and PA Turnpike access, this was a good choice. There are a couple restaurants, and a 24-hour grocery store nearby as well. Had a king-size bed which was comfortable. Room was clean; a couple towels looked a little worn and lightly stained. If they "update" the towels and bed linens, they would get a higher rating next time. It was also a tad noisy, but it's also close to major highways, and it was booked solid for the 4th. Night shift front desk clerk was very courteous.

Never again.......

We had stayed here 2 years ago and it was ok. This year, I got a great rate on Orbitz for a king bed. I got there and was given a room with 2 doubles, though I paid extra for king. The 1st room had clogged toilet, and shower wouldn't drain. We moved to the 'only other' room available w/2 doubles again. I was told that we didn't pay enough to get a king! Then later we realized the sheets were dirty! Never again!

weekend trip may/8/9/2009

Overall was a quiet uneventful stay. This location was chosen because it was far enough from Carlisle Pa. that the weekend prices were not bloted from car show events.

not very nice

there were clothes left in the drawer from the last person, empty water bottles under the bed. I went to iron my shirt and the ironing board collapsed and the iron hit me on the leg. when reported upon check out her first comment was did you burn the carpet, then informed me that my room was kept filthy dirty. i had two kids staying with me and they had toys and such on the floor. the only thing they were asked for was towels and to empty the garbage. they did not have to make the bed or any thing else while i was there. I do not know if I would stay there again.

Will stay here again

Nice place to stay for the price. This is a basic Motel type property with a pool. Everything was clean except our room was not clean when we arrived. That's okay because we came around 1pm and the cleaning person had not cleaned ours yet. The room was very compfortable. Will stay her again wehn in this area.
