Our trip to Jim Thorpe was spur of the moment, returning from Plymouth, MA. We booked the hotel from the car, literally 3 hours out. Luckily they had a cancelation and we got in to a regular room. It was very nice, clean, a great shower, very comfortable beds, etc. The next morning we decided to try and extend our stay (spur of the moment). The room we were in was booked so they moved us into a "rustic" room (new iron beds with pillow top mattresses, used brick walls, open rafter ceiling, great window lighting, wonderful bathroom with a faucet that resembled and old fashioned water pump, etc.). Great!!!! If available, try to book one of these. The common areas were all clean and new. The staff were wonderful; friendly, helpful, cheerful. The continental breakfast was what you would expect in any good hotel. Small (but free) parking lot out back. There is a spa next door. If you have reason to visit Jim Thorpe (delightful little touristy turn of the 20th Century town), I suggest trying to snag a room at the Y. A very cool little boutique hotel.
