Great place for a quick trip to State College. Room is adequate, large bathroom, but bedroom area might be small for larger folks. Bed size is a double, not a queen, which wasn't a problem for our stay since we were 2 and didn't share. Bed was comfortable and pillows amazing. Towels were soft. Very clean. Easy parking. Fridge, coffee maker and microwave are provided. TV has Direct TV.

My husband and I needed a place to stay last minute and the Northland Motel worked perfectly for us. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. Checking in was easy. The lady working was very welcoming. There was also no noise coming from the bowling alley or restaurant. Andes candies and bottled water was a nice touch. The temperature was comfortable in the room as it was very cold and blustery. We will stay again in the future.
