I love to come here just to get away an swim.. would be 5 stars but i wish the pool was better kept up.. maybe hire somebody to come in an care for it.. the front desk lady Angela is very sweet an always helpful very friendly
Not a bad spot like some of the other places around the city with the homeless or the vagrants running around looking shady. Especially if you got kids or your wife with you. You hate to feel uncomfortable. This place is by the highway with easy access on and off. Has a rest stop style gas station at the end of the road for any quick necessaries you might need, if not it's not far to get to Capitol City Mall shopping area. The hotel itself is run by a nice Indian man, always very friendly and helpful, allows me to check in early if I want for a $25 early fee. Check out is still 11am like everywhere else. Free breakfast in the mornings. The rooms are sanitary and clean. The building is just old. It's always quiet and comfortable. I've had no issues the three times I've stayed there. The AC works, shower, blow-dryer, ice machine, microwave, large mini fridge, TV with about 50 channels. Plenty of parking. And a nice quiet outdoor pool area with tables and chairs. Just if you got kids there's no life guard so watch your kids. The rooms are always clean, toilets flush like you could flush your sheets down them if you want. Bathroom nice and clean also.
I was here for a business trip on June 24 - 27 and July 1 - 3 2022. First time had upstairs room which was 99% great, maybe a little dust or dirt here and there but nothing that seemed to bother me at all except for the chair which only leans forward. That was a little annoying. The second time I was given a room downstairs- the vent didn't work in the bathroom, the walls had marks and looked a bit dirtier than the previous room, however again I was mostly busy with work and enjoying the points of interest so again it's one of those things which I just ignore. The chair leaned back this time and that made my day! So overall - the rooms were clean, staff was polite with me and extension for stay wasn't so bad. I love that they have a microwave and fridge. If you don't really care about perfection, this place is good with a good price and availability. Neighboring people were pretty friendly so far as well, would definitely recommend
Nice, affordable place to stay with a great pull for swimming in on a hot summer day with a Rutters right across the street to get some adult slushys. Staff is super friendly and always looking to help, also the room are clean. Will be staying here again in the future and would recommend
By far THE BEST hotel in PA and MD. Stayed in 3 different in PA and 2 others in MD. This place was AWESOME!! I really wasnt expecting much for the price or location. Single king. Room and hall clean. Linens clean. Bed was Goldilocks Approved. No evidence of bedbugs or any other creepy crawly things. Ice machine worked and didnt have a taste. Pool was beautiful, cold but very nice. Shower stayed hot and was clean. The air worked. Fridge and microwave clean. It was a perfection-al painters and contractor's nightmare tho lol. The cut ins were something else in my room lol. Its all good tho, youre here to sleep not paint the room lol. Real nice people there. No homeless roaming around that we saw. Over all I gave a 4... Everybody needs room for improvement.
Cant beat these good quality rooms at this price. Pool was not operational but I plan to come back in the summer for it. Definitely staying again.
We actually were very surprised that the new owners went above and beyond for our stay.. Very clean room.. and breakfast.. Pool.. it was actually really nice to relax and not have much worry .. Thank you .. keep improving your new Hotel.. OUR FAMILY WILL BE BACK.. YOU ARE APPRECIATED...
