I wasn’t sure what to expect but the reviews were great and it was just a short distance to the park and stadium. It’s an older hotel but don’t let that deter you. We were immediately greeted by friendly and welcoming staff, the room was clean, the temperature in the room was perfect. The morning breakfast was lovely and service was great! We will definitely be back!

We decided to stay based on reviews. But apon entering strong Marijuana smell, lady was nice. Price steep for not having a free breakfest. The IT helping me get on wifi screamed at me on the phone very very upsetting we almost left at 10 at night to find a new hotel if i didnt have young kids we would of left.. Desk and areas tacky to the touch, stains on the blankets, shower head leaked everywhere. Indoor pool not very accessible for a 4 year old and we wanted a pool to enjoy and didnt get to. Cords from wall laying on floor inbetween the beds. Would not recommend to family or friends even people we dont know.

I stayed here for 2 days and overall enjoyed my stay! The staff was over the top nice! I’ve stayed at many hotels across the US and this hotel has been the only one that called up to my room 20 minutes after check in to make sure I was okay and didn’t need anything. I will say the rooms have a little old smell to them mixed with a smell of smoke. You can tell the rooms are older. The hotel itself is huge with a lot of different amenities that were great. The location is amazing. It’s right across from a huge plaza with a Target, etc. on the other said is a Sheetz, Chic fil a, and so much more. Also only 20 mins from Hersheypark. The parking was great as they have a huge parking lot.

I enjoyed my mini vacation there, we used both pools and the hot tub. The outside one was cold but I had to remember that it is early in the summer season. I stayed Monday to Wednesday so it was pretty quiet. Very nice area to walk the dog. One of the main reasons for staying there was the amenities, We all enjoyed our stay, the only thing that was confusing was when we went to see about the buffet and they weren't open that day. Tuesday I tried making two cups of coffee for my husband and I and the coffee pot didn't work so I went to the front desk and the nice lady gave me a new one and more coffee.i would definitely stay again. Thanks for everything.

Ghost hotel.

Restaurant and bar not open. They wanted 16 for breakfast. They offered no coffee and had no creamers because they were locked up. They said it was because we were the only guests at the hotel. This was not true unless people were sneaking into room. There was a card game going on right outside our room. Many abandon rooms with lights on and TVs going and linens torn apart. Almost like something from the shining.
