This hotel we have been coming to since 2022. Each July we drive up to Pa for family reunions. The people who work here are the best and always have been fortunate to get a room that is quite and clean. The people at check in always make you feel at ease and treat you as family. The breakfast is outstanding and area is kept clean.

Great parking close to highway,lot’s of shopping and food places,Walmart is about a five minute drive you can see it from hotel, Staff was good except I was charged for my room before I even checked in ,I was not happy about that.because I wanted to put it on another card.that never happened to me, When I asked her to fix this she said she could not, to wait till I checked out.no problem. To me that is a big problem.like why was I charged before I got there I arrived around 2 fourty five so there was absolutely no reason to be charged. I love they have a wonderful breakfast and their coffee is the best. I ate at anot known restaurant, that had a bar close to hotel I can’t remember the name,of it but the food was awesome.
