I choose the property because of the rating and even though the room was clean, it needs updating.. the matress was hard to sleep and the A/C wasn’t working properly. Temperature was cold outside so it wasn’t a big deal for one night but don’t recommend during summer time.

It's silly to charge $10 for parking in an uncovered parking lot; if anything, you could simply mark parking as "hotel guests only" and still utilize a parking slip. The night time check-in receptionist demonstrated a presence that might indicate further training on hospitality, cordiality and a welcoming spirit might be beneficial.

Great hotel for my quick stay for a concert at the Yuengling Center. It is off a busy street so I can be a little noisy but ear plugs are provided in the room if this may be an issue, otherwise it was great

Do NOT stay here!!!!
I stayed here because of the reviews on Hotels.com. I am extremely disappointed in this experience. Only one elevator worked. With how busy the hotel was you ended up standing there for a very long period of time trying to get up the elevator. The bed is extremely uncomfortable. If you are a light sleeper since this hotel is right next to the road, you can hear the noise of the traffic all night long. On my last day upon check out I found there was an extra parking fee attached to my bill, which was not told to me when I checked in. And also, there was no breakfast. Apparently the person did not show up which turned out to be our problem . So no breakfast and the gentleman at the front desk was extremely rude.
