The moment I turned on the faucet in the sink to brush my teeth, the water started backing up within 3 seconds. Dirty water with a clogged pipe, water couldn’t even go down the pipe. The entire place is like a very cheap motel. I left immediately. The online photos of the place were deceptive.

We played the gambling machines and my boyfriend got called a professional gambler because he hit on the machines. Then the receptionist was on tue phone saying she will tell us to leave. I confronted her and she said if my card declined because i paid with card amd not the cash we won from the machines. We went to another place to stay. They carged my card and im still waiting to get my refund.

A Nightmare Stay at The MappleMold hotel

I wish I could give this hotel zero stars. From the moment I arrived, it was clear this place was a disaster. The property is an absolute dump—trash littered everywhere, from cigarette butts to food wrappers, making the grounds look like a landfill. The building itself is ancient, crumbling, and reeks of neglect. The room was even worse. The overpowering stench of mold, cigarette smoke, and dog urine hit me the second I walked in. The carpet was damp and squished underfoot, clearly saturated with who-knows-what (though the urine smell gave a strong hint). The ceiling in the bathroom had suspicious holes—perfectly positioned for a hidden camera, which made showering feel like a scene from a horror movie. I didn’t feel safe for a second. Speaking of safety, the door’s lock was flimsy at best, barely latching, let alone securing the room. The whole place felt like it hadn’t been cleaned or maintained in decades. Mold crept along the walls, and the air was thick with a musty, smoky haze that made breathing unpleasant. I couldn’t sleep, couldn’t relax, and checked out as fast as possible. This hotel is a health hazard and a security nightmare. Save your money and your sanity—stay far, far away.

Across the board, it was an bad experience staying here. I checked out after the first day and didn’t stay the second day because of a sudden personal emergency. So I asked the owner or manager to try to get me a refund for the second day booking and they told me to deal about it with Expedia. So I called Expedia all they did was send me two emails so far telling me that the situation is still pending according to the Pocono Hotel and Spa. That doesn’t make sense because they told me already at the hotel they will not refund me for the second day. That I had already paid and booked for through Expedia. And I’m still waiting for an answer on that one for me from either Expedia or hotel. Like I said, it was a personal, family emergency of why we left and the hotel management knows that and knows why. It would be nice if I can at least get a credit for the $108 I paid for the booking or a full refund. Which ever they want to do.

My wife and I recently planned a quick weekend getaway. We choose Pocono Mountain resort and spa for a couple of reasons. 1. Dog freindly. (They were very accommodating for traveling with our four legged member of our family.) Close to other things in area we have done in the past. (Everything seemed to be around 25-30 minutes which we didn't mind with the wonderful Mountain veiws) 3 reasonable price This is not the Hilton so don't expect it. If grandmom said come stay at my cabin in the mountains this place has that vibe. The staff and owner are nice and very sociable. The place is far from perfect and dated but thats what gives it its character. We are already planning our next trip back we loved it.
