Interesting motel

This hotel was nice enough. It has clearly seen better days, but it's still here. It looks like it was built before hotels became uniform in room shape and expectation. I could imagine at one point in time it would have been semi-resort like. It does need updating, but it really it had everything I needed. I'm guessing the lack of a market for it's rather pretty country location prevents it from getting a complete overhaul. I hope it stays around for a while.

The hostess was pleasant, but the property was a bit rundown overall. We were placed in a room to the rear of the property and the ere was debris piled in the driveway and generally in a state of poor maintenance. Also the restaurant/bar was closed and obviously hadn't been in operation for a long time. The room itself was acceptable inside.

Hotel WANNABE !!!!?

Rooms smelled of mildew; everything in poor condition; very old and dated; refrigerator and microwave breakers in all rooms were tripped, no soap in rooms; continental breakfast wasn’t ready at all at 630 as promised; breakers tripped like 15 times for waffles and rosters; one table with 2 chairs; unfortunately there were no other options close to Penn State for graduation; ONLY saving grace was TV worked and shower was hot and beds were okay; place needs a TOTALgut or demo and start over !!!!!

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Aging property, not well-maintained. Bathroom especially was a sore point with the shower patched together by tape and the bathtub drain plug snapped in half. Heating unit was confusing -- unresponsive to any kind of controls either on the unit or on the wall. I wanted to have the fan in "on" mode rather than "auto" to drown the disruptive noise from neighbors. However, that did not appear to be possible. Breakfast was minimal, including PB&J sandwich and a waffle maker. There was no drinking water other bottled water for purchase. Area around the hotel, especially before the biggest college football game of the season, was D-E-A-D. Had to drive a mile and a half to a pizza place to find other humans.

This place is need of serious repair. Check in is average. This place needs to be at least clean if you offer this to public. Not sure how a place so dirty can exist in a post COVID world This needs to be held to some kind of acceptable standards and I think I should be refunded all the money it cost to sit in a chair and not be able to sleep..No other hotel was available thanks to Penn State game . STAY AWAY FROM THIS NASTY PLACE . Unless filth and disgust don't bother.GROSS

What a shame to spend $150 s night and not even have soap in your bathroom. This place was a dump. My grandson would not even use the bedsheets.
