This is a well cleaned property that seems to be antique architectured design that makes it look like a great palace. Private rooms and quiet neighborhood yet close to Zhershey park and other places nearby for shopping immediate needs. Very pleasant experience and personnel.

The people are so so friendly and kind! Unfortunately the rooms were very small and outdated, which is fine if yore just looking for a place to crash. Was close to Hersheypark which was convenient. The shower didn’t get hot at all so we had to take cold showers. The bed was somewhat comfy. Was clean for the most part.

Perfect stay for the Hershey Swap Meet. Walls of the room are paper thin, so be prepared to become familiar with your neighbours night-time habits and TV preferences. Very friendly staff. Great for the price.

The property was simple but nice. A little older but clean and tidy. It's nothing fancy and for one night it was exactly what we needed for a night at Hershey Park . The motel is close by and easy to get to from the park . Perfect for families. Expedia made it easy to book as well. I will stay again if we come to Hershey.

You can’t find a more perfect location! T’he Motel is dated but it is a true classic and has amazing charm. We found this place on a whim, but now we can’t wait to bring the kids back and enjoy this piece of history over a longer stay. All of the staff that I encountered were overly cheerfull, but you could tell it was 100% genuine!! If you are the person that must have “perfection”, then this isn’t the place for you, and quite frankly get your nose out of the air and take your negative vibes elsewhere. ‘’’’’if you are the type that can appreciate nostalgia and value the hard work of others, then this is definitely a business to support!! Can’t wait to return!!

Staff were friendly, location convenient and looks cute from the outside. However, the web pics are misleading as I booked an apartment for 5 of us and what I got were two beds in the entrance room of the "apartment" and a futon in the kitchen; the "apartment" is two rooms and a bathroom. Bathroom window didn't shut and the air conditioner blowing smelled like mildew. Rough mattresses. Zero insulation in this place as I could hear water dropping on the tin roof outside all day and night; and the walls shook when closing the door and it sounded like a herd of cattle stomping around in the room above us all night. Not terrible, but not very good either.

I did not like being responsible for pulling sheets and pillow cases off the bed or be charged additional money on top of already paying 500 for the night, seems it should be housekeepings job. While they normally charge 500 deposit for an apartment rental (i paid 100 brcause u wasnt told). Carpeting is outdated and stained. There is not enough parking for each unit, even with street parking available. The staff were super nice.
