Elva at the front desk was wonderful and very kind. She went above and beyond to make our stay good. She also helped a friend of ours with the same kindness. Also the young man in the breakfast room was great, but I don't know his name. We will stay there again in the future.

We were in for the weekend for a concert at Hershey and booked two rooms here because the price was excellent for two nights. We did not know what to expect at that rate and were pleasantly surprised by the friendliness of the girl at the front desk. She was quick and efficient and helpful. The rooms were large and very clean and modern. The location is just 25 minutes from Hershey and many other attractions with a fantastic diner right down the road. All in all we had a fantastic visit and will definitely stay here again for our next visit.

The staff was friendly and apologetic. The room itself was ok but the bed sheets were dirty. Crumbs and hairs on the sheets. They did offer another room but it still wasn’t up to par. We had them replaced the bedding in our original room. The door to our room didn’t close properly you had to really pull and check to make sure it was locked.

Check in was fine, got into room and it smelled like smoke & it was supposed to be a non-smoking room. Toilet stopped working mid-stay, & ran all night. The room had a wrapper on the floor & underneath the bed was dirty.

Stay away! The room was filthy, smelt like smoke even though it was a nonsmoking room. Taped over electrical switches, chipped paint in bathroom. I don’t know how a place like this is allowed to be open for business.

When we entered the hotel, the first thing we noticed was the smell of the room. It smelled foul and it wasn’t a very pleasurable experience off the bat. I used the bathroom and the toilets, faucet were outdated and dirty. The faucet had mold near the sink and the shower also had mold. The breakfast was okay, i liked the eggs but the orange juice was not good. The overall environment of the hotel didn’t quite meet my low expectations. For $98, we could’ve gone to somewhere much better. I rate it a 3/10

Bed sheets dirty with stains pulled covers back and bed was full of hair,then found more hair in bathroom. Floors very dirty. Every time I left the room had to go get cards reprogrammed. Shower did not work right would shut off cold water and go extremely hot and burn you and the light timer shut the lights off on you. Tv had 3 channels 2 where news and one with shows on was very blurry. Ended up leaving early and didn't get refunded for days not used.
