Very unsanitary hotel

I never write reviews but this hotel was terrible. The room was discussing and not clean. The AC unit leaked making the floor wet. There was black mold on the walls. The beds were not clean at all and there was still candy and crumbs on the floor from the previous guest. The shower was also unsanitary. Lots of grime and dried soap everywhere. Half of the breakfast equipment didn’t work and the pool was green the entire stay. Check out wasn’t till 11am and they tried to come in to the room twice at 8:30 and wanted to rush us out of the hotel. Worst stay I’ve ever had and felt very uncomfortable the whole time.

We had a nice time here for our Hershey/Lancaster vacation. The man at the front desk was very accommodating. My daughter forgot her toothbrush and we were able to get a new one free of charge. They have a free breakfast which is nice also. The rooms are pretty basic but comfortable. They also have a pool that we took advantage of the first night. We would come back again.

Breakfast is awful not enough sitting and not big enough area to get your food, everyone is trying to get around each other. One worker in the breakfast area trying to keep everything filled while other workers are standing at the front desk not helping her. Pancake machine is turned to make mini pancakes and takes forever for machine. Rooms need updated.

Check in process was confusing. They could not find our reservation despite my giving them the receipt. Had to ask for towels and trash to be emptied. Bathroom was not clean. Then Welles our toilet was broken the front desk staff handed us a plunger and told us to try this….didn’t send maintenance. Ice machines were broken. Pool was full of hair. Man at the front desk was kind but overwhelmed. Price is definitely reasonable but some of these complaints are very basic for a hotel. Not expecting luxury but definitely did not want to clean and maintaining either.
