Room was full of knats flying around. Towels smelled very bad. Hot tub full of bugs. Used to love staying here, was a lot better when it was ran by Holiday inn. Wont be back to stay.

My apologies, Kevin. Our transition from IHG to Red Lion 8 years ago gave us the opportunity to renovate several areas of the property while still maintaining it clean and comfortable. We regret to learn this was not evident during your brief stay. We will inspect the room you stayed in immediately to determine what caused your dissatisfaction and address it accordingly. Recent inclement weather caused debris from our evergreen trees around hot tub to settle at the bottom. We will clean it, and make sure it's consistently inspected.We wish you all the best in your future travels and hope to have another opportunity to earn back your trust and confidence in our accommodations. Thank you for your business.Sincerely,Randall J. Stuart, CHA, CHMEGeneral Manager

We recently stayed at the property with our 4 kids for a trip to HersheyPark which is about 15 mins away. The hotel met our needs perfectly. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. It was great having an both an indoor and outdoor pool, plenty for the kids to do. We ended up staying in the Presidential Suite and there was more than enough room for the 6 of us, and the 3 separate bathrooms was a huge plus. My only knock on the place was the apparent age of the property, it was very clean and well maintained but the age was noticeable.
