This hotel has been around a really long time and it’s very old but the staff does an excellent job of keeping it up and our room was very very clean. Thanks for a nice stay.
The location was great,close to the BYC,friendly reception, and a clean room,not a hotel,but motel,with great motel rates.Was perfect for youth wrestling family,after 12-14 hours spent in the arena,just wanted a a hot shower,clean sheets and room,and close proximity!

Liked: Staff & service
Parking was tight but fine , tv was different, room was musty smelling, but if you are there just to sleep and shower it was fine
Great location
They made a lot of improvements since my last stay there.
They need to pave the parking lot and for the love of God, get an ice machine. It's SOP at every motel.
This is a motel, not a hotel. But it is very clean, the staff are very friendly, it felt very safe (and it was completely booked for our visit), and the location is excellent in State College. The only thing that bothered me was the bed was harder than I like, but that is all personal preference. Others in our party of eight said that they really liked the beds.
Check in and out was a breeze. Coffee in the lobby was available. Good parking. The room was not the cleanest. The atmosphere was lacking. Holes in the curtains. TV went out for awhile.
The check in was easy and staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel is very close to the PSU campus and a very easy drive. The rooms are a little dated, but they are very clean and well maintained. Restaurants are within walking distance, with one right next door, and a number more within 2 miles. For being on a busy street, the room was very quite. Adjustments to the heat were simple, unlike some newer hotels. The hotel is also within a half mile of a nice walking trail and bike trail. Both seemed to be well used by runners and walkers. I enjoyed the stay.
