I’ve been staying here a lot recently, it’s the cheapest place in Altoona. The place is a tad dated I’d say but for the price it can’t be beat and the rooms are always clean and the staff is friendly and helpful. I can’t ask for much more considering the cost.

The front desk staff was extremely accommodating around our unique schedule due to a wedding venue. The facility is in need of updating, but the bathroom was clean, water pressure excellent. Room did have a slight odor to it, carpet had some stains. Overall it suited our needs for just a quick overnight stay.

Great place to stay when looking for an overnight stay after a Penn State football game. 30 minutes from State College, and an easy drive. The best thing about this place is the price. As most hotels from Altoona to State College inflate their prices for home games, the ‘Curve’ maintains their low prices. As described by other reviews, the place is a bit dated including the bathrooms, but they are in process of renovating them. So this should improve.

The room was okay. Under construction though. The curtains on the windows didn’t close well and the shower curtains were too high so water went on the floor. Once the construction is complete it will be very nice. Wi-Fi wouldn’t work either. Tommy at the front desk was great. He had a great attitude and willing to help with anything.
