I have recently reached out to the property to ask for a refund on a day of our stay that was not used, as well as the fact that we choice this hotel due to the hot tub access. Which has been permanently shut down at this hotel, but is still being advertised. They told me I needed to talk to the travel agents. However the travel agency is telling me to contact the hotel. I’m getting very upset with the service at this point.

Something has to done about the HVAC in the rooms. It roars like a jet engine. I had to turn it off during the night or I would have never been able to get to sleep.

This is a nice but very dated property. There was no heat in my room - 25 degrees outside with the room barely able to maintain 60 degrees with thermostat set at 82

I like the sit down areas they have all through the hotel and the scenery. The only thing I didn’t like is that the hot tub was down and that’s my favorite thing about that place but other than that everything was great.

I typically stay here on my way home from Penn State Football games. This is an older property but they have made significant improvements. I noticed that the rooms have been remodeled on my last few visits. I will continue to stay here in the future. Many dining options nearby.

Easy check in/out. Clean room. Biggest complaint was breakfast was served until 10, but we came at 9 and they had no food left and wouldn’t bring any more out. So much for a free breakfast included. Unless you wanted oatmeal or yogurt, you were out of luck. Otherwise was great.

The rooms, buildings and hallways are very old and outdated. Bathroom fixtures may have been clean but don’t appear to be clean because of their age, rust and paint condition.

The hotel was a bit like a time warp from the 80's, which was just fine for me haha. Breakfast was just okay, but good enough. The only issue I really had was with the fitness center (which I get the feeling doesn't get used much). It needed towels, something to clean the equipment with, and a yoga or stretching mat (I had to use the floor). Other than that, the staff were so helpful and just lovely.
