Won't stay here again.

This is the only place in my three years of traveling to copy my driver's license. When I asked for it back in the morning. They need to join the 21st century and simply put a security on the credit card. The configuration was also bizarre. Our room number 112 was actually on the second floor. The really sad part was the "adult" store sign view from the room. It was huge ...

What A Total Failure

Definitely would've done better sleeping in my car, or putting out the cash for a better hotel. Tried to save but really didnt. Had to pay $30 to check in before 3pm which regular hotels do as a convenience IF your room is ready. The beds are hard and not.comfortable at all. The heater was super loud so had to let it run for awhile then turn it off to hear the tv or get sleep. The pillows like 1/2 inch slabs of foam. No coffee or coffee makers in room or lobby. And the residents that live here are loud, drunks and who knows what else. Stay away if at all possible. Ill be posting this review on Google as well. The upload button wouldnt let me put a video of the heater screaming when I turned it back on this morning when I woke up freezing.

It's a very basic room, that is ok based on the price. Two things struck me at check in, the person was very difficult to understand, after a couple times having him repeat I found myself just nodding my head without knowing what I was nodding to. A major turn-off, as most hotels use the credit card type keys, he blew into the little envelope to open it and immediately placed the key in the envelope, obviously this is VERY unsanitary, when I got to the room I threw the envelope away, washed the key and my hands.

Clean, inexpensive, 2 star hotel

The Wilkes-Barre Lodge was a great choice for our one night stay near the Mohegan Sun Poconos Casino. It looked newly renovated and was very clean and inexpensive. Our room was missing a cover over one outlet and had a broken cover on an outlet/switch combo. It also didn't have hangers for our coats or a suitcase rest. These things were minor and easy to work around. I would stay here again if we go back to this area.

Nice Spot for a Quick Stop Over

I stayed here on my way to Greensburg. The man who checked me in was friendly and the process went smoothly. The room appeared to be recently remodeled and I it looked nice. The bed could have been softer, but that is subjective. For folks traveling through it is near a Denny's, Taco Bell, Wendy's, and Dunkin Donuts. It was easy to get there from the interstate.
