The pool isn’t heated, The hot tub isn’t heated and the sauna wasn’t working. Room was clean but a hair on the small side for $350 a night. Supply and demand in PA though. It’s likely the safest hotel with all the street people running quests to score street candy. They do have security onsite all night.
