Nice, cute place! A great place to stay for cheap without compromising on cleanliness. Did not partake in provided breakfast, but location is great for Penn State campus, less than 10min by car. Lots of places to get food nearby as well.

The staff is wonderful, the location is great, parking is easy, the beds were comfortable, the price was very fair, rooms were quiet and overall was satisfactory. This has been my family's go-to place when visiting Penn State. This time I noticed a few things in both of the rooms we booked that I wished were in a bit better condition but overall I will stay there again.

It would have excellent if they put me on the first floor where there were several empty rooms. But they gave me second floor where I had to climb rickety steep narrow stairs.

A sweet mom n’ pop property run by a lovely young family. Cheaper than anything in State College and right on the doorsteps of The Waffle Shop and a wonderful Greek restaurant, I always make this my budget friendly stay when I’m visiting my son at PSU. It’s a rare find.
