Nice stay
Clean room, soft bed, good air conditioning and excellent service. I take a shower in the evening and the water was warm at best, so that was disappointing. Overall a great stay.

Overnight compulsion
Automobile breakdown on a Sunday forced us to overnight in Altoona, PA. Found this hotel in the app, nearby, convenient, highly recommended and reasonably priced. They did not disappoint. Front desk staff was SUPERB! Hotel & grounds were exceptionally clean, bright and fresh smelling. Parking was easy. Room, bed and bathroom were comfortable with good amenities. Remote check-in and check-out were silky smooth. Breakfast was good but just the normal complimentary breakfast items.

Room was exceptional and clean. Their "premium bedding" is not bad, but not premium. The beds and bedding at the Holiday Inn Express across town is much nicer. Parking was easy. There are a couple of microbrewery restaurants that are walkable (0.5 miles) that are good. Levity Brewing was my favorite. Staff was average. When checking out, the guy at the desk was unable to print a receipt for me, so he said he would email it to me. I had to spell my (simple) email address 3 times and I still didn't receive a receipt.

we like this property because it is close to where our family lives and it is reasonably priced....rooms are clean, and the staff was friendly, breakfast is good, only bad thing I can say is there was some noise outside that kept me awake, motorcycle noise and the train whistle at 2 am but that is not something the hotel can do anything about except maybe better sound proof windows!

Hotel was in great condition and very clean. Only small thing I can say is the breakfast could have been slightly better. It was a pretty small selection.

Checked in on line, the night before with expected arrival indicated at 3:00. My room was not ready till 4:10 My son's family's room was missing night stand lamp shade and the other lamp had shade but no light bulb. This was pointed out to the front desk, but was never addressed by them during our 2 day stay. I guess it was not important to them. Otherwise the breakfast, pool, and facilities were very good.
