“Customer service is far beyond expectations!”

  • Cheap rate.
  • Could hear water running from other rooms all night long.

“The hotel was good for the price. The biggest annoyance was being able to hear the water running from the other rooms next to us. The pipes would shake every time the water was turned on or off. I didn't expect much for the price but this was incredibly annoying.”

  • The location.
  • It was dirty, the staff was rude and it smelled like an ash tray.

“Do not stay here. It is dirty. The staff is rude. The internet they offer does not work. It goes in and out.”

  • The only thing I liked was the price.
  • Public spaces were dirty, floors, walls etc. Continental breakfast a joke.

  • The location was perfect for us, we had morning business at the capital.
  • Not so clean, musty smell.

“If you just need a place to lay your head while in Harrisburg, this will do, we did not want to spend a lot on a room, we were there to rest and leave early, good location, still must drive (very close but on a highway) to food and shopping.”

  • Smoke room and outdated.

“My expectations were not set high to begin with so I really wasn't that disappointed.”

  • Nothing it was dirty.
  • Stained sheets had to have them changed.

“I will never stay at this hotel again. The windows have not been cleaned for months and the sheets were stained. When we walked in there was no one around we had to wait a long time even when we left in the morning there was no one to help us. I would not recommend this place to anyone.”

  • The night desk clerk gave me directions to a 24 hr Wal-Mart.
  • The whole place smelled bad.

“The lobby rugs were being cleaned (?) when we got there. It was hard to check in with this going on. The room smelled like body odor. We asked for a different room, and that room was filthy. The towels (white) were yellow and hard, not to mention the toothpaste blotches in the sink from the previous guest. The TV didn't work, so there was a backup that didn't get the HBO. The shower drained extremely slow, so you were standing in 4 inches of water by the time you were done. The fridge was not plugged in and found this out when I went to open it. After a whole day out we got back in around 10 pm and behold our key did not work. This meant a trip back to the desk to get our key recharged and given instructions on how to put the key in. Give me a break!”

  • I like it has a pool for the children.
  • I wish the restaurant would get it together. The food and service is not good at all.

“We like the hotel because it is clean and easy to get to out destination. The children love the pool but it need to be heated. If the restaurant was better we would eat there. We have gotten sick from the food.”

  • It was allot quieter than expected. The hotel was packed every night and we barely heard any noise.
  • The outside of the hotel needed a little bit of cosmetic work.

“My husband and I traveled there with our three young children and we were very surprised. I didn't think the room would be as good as it was. The kids had room to play and we had room to relax. At night we didn't hear any noise, which that was what I was concerned about. It was nice and peaceful. I would consider going back sometime.”

  • The people seemed to be friendly.
  • It could have been a little cleaner, especially the walls.

“It was not as bad as I thought it was going to be. When I saw it from the outside, I thought it was going to be a lot worse.”

  • Close to highway, attractions.
  • Maid barges in when we were in room and proceeded to clean it.

“Ok. Better than 1 star. Maybe 2 stars. Good value for proximity to Hersheypark, if you don't mind a 2 star hotel.”

  • Spacious rooms and comfortable beds.
  • The neighbors were very noisy and you could here right through the inside door.

“Very nice hotel for the price, very comfortable to stay in. Would definitely stay there again but they should remind the other visitors to respect there neighbors.”

  • The hotel was convenient to get to and was reasonably priced.
  • The staff wasn't always helpful.

“One person told me they didn't have extra pillows, he gave me towels to use! The next day a woman had plenty of towels for us. The woman was very helpful and nice the entire time we were there. The hotel is only about a half hour from Hershey and about an hour from Amish Country. It was good for a couple days; I wouldn't stay there for a longer period.”

  • Close to Hershey, nothing else to like.
  • Roaches, broken window, two light bulbs were broken, no back on the remote control, odor.

“Do not stay here; this place was not a hotel. More like a rent by the hour hotel. Roaches were crawling on the breakfast bar. Odor in the room. The window glass was broken in the room. Two light bulbs were burnt out; one broke off in the socket. The toilet rocked when you sat down on it. The remote control for the 25 inch TV that had a VCR in it didn't work and the back was missing off the remote.”

  • There is nothing I liked or my family liked about the hotel.
  • There is not enough space or do I have that much time.

“The hotel was dark, dirty and English was not a language that was commonly spoken.”

  • Nothing.
  • From above--desk did not come and clean up the glass.

“Room was terrible, except for the bed which was very comfortable.”

  • Rooms, beds and bath were clean.
  • Continental breakfast was a joke.

“Food for continental breakfast was rationed out. In other words, if you went back for seconds, or picked out food your spouse, they were reluctant to give it to you, along with a look that should drive you away.”

  • The rooms were very large.
  • There were stains on the sheets and one non-smoking room was not non-smoking.

“I was surprised to find the hotel employees were in very casual clothing, not uniformed shirts with name-tags. The pillows, sheets and furniture had stains on them, but smelled clean. No elevator for those who need one. The rooms were large, however and the showers were hot. It was fine for one night after Hershey Park, but that was it. I would rather have paid $80, not $100.”
