We didn’t arrive until after dark, but the parking area was well lit and lended itself to feeling safe, especially in an unfamiliar city. The main lobby space was inviting, and the front desk staff person was quick and courteous. Check-in was a breeze, and we were able to get to our room, and right to the pool to enjoy some swimming with our kids!

Basic, just a room to stay to for the purpose I went to Altoona. The receptionist at the hotel was nice, provided the hotel details and made check in a breeze. Room was basic , serviced its purpose. Surprisingly the bed was comfortable and the pillows were soft ,a good night sleep is priceless. The hotel can use some updates, a lot of the fixtures, post, shower heads have turned colors, appearing to look filthy, The surrounding area is iffy. There is a head warm pool.
