The hotel was very convenient to Penn State activities. My only complaint is that the floor above me had children running, jumping (sounding like jumping off of beds) through the night. We did finally call down to the front desk and the noise did stop but with no carpets (which I like) there is no absorption to sound.

Good place to stay if you are attending any events at Penn State. Beds are comfortable and it is restful there. The ice machines on our floor were not working which was a bit of a pain and it should be fixed. I would also suggest they provide free coffee and water in the mornings as most establishments provide this.

Super Safe, Friendly, and Comfortable
The staff were friendly and kind. The cleanliness was wonderful! The bed was so comfortable, I looked forward to going to sleep every night. While I didn't use the pool or gym, I could tell they were rather nice and the kids in the hotel certainly enjoyed the pool. I was impressed they had a guest laundry for folks staying for a while. It was the perfect location for my visit to Penn State, as I was able to easily drive to each of my events and it was convenient to nearby shopping. It felt very safe for me as a single female traveling alone. I will definitely stay here again next time I need to come to the area.

Monday during checkin and Tuesday morning the hotel was significantly under staffed. Breakfest was not worth the cost and not good compared to Hilton Garden Inns. Rest rooms out of service on main lobby. Credit card reader not working at coffee counter. Coffee maker in room was filthy. I come to State College every year and will hestiate to stay here again.

Updated rooms and good restaurant
This is a nice hotel for a small town. It’s been recently updated, and the rooms are quite nice. Very comfy bed, decent bathroom. I had to call the front desk early one morning because there were two body washes on the shower wall and no shampoo. They responded immediately. Having the restaurant on site was a life saver on late evenings after work. My only complaint was the coloring & heating unit in my room. It ran constantly, going back and forth from heat to cold. It was so insanely loud. Fortunately for mild temps in the 50s, I left it off my second night so I could actually get some sleep after a miserable first night.
