Guests say
Guests appreciate the hotel's excellent location, especially for those visiting Penn State, and highlight its beautiful recent renovations. However, there are significant concerns about service quality, including issues with staff training and management responsiveness. Cleanliness also appears to be a recurring issue, with reports of dirty rooms and inadequate bathroom amenities. Overall, while the hotel has a lot going for it, improvements are needed in service and cleanliness to enhance the guest experience.

Breakfast meals were good but the service was poor especially given that there were only 3-4 tables being served. Coffee shop breakfast menu selection is limited and the coffee mediocre.

Cons (-) Reserved a year in advance for this year's Arts Fest. Four girlfriends. With both elderly parents and young adult children issues, only booked rooms because the third party reservation site bragged that we would be able to cancel up to 24 hours ahead. Three weeks out it became apparent that our issues would make it very difficult to be away from family for that weekend. Called to cancel. Managemen...

Pros (+) Location, Location, Location. Right on campus, so if visiting Penn State, this is it !!! I've had small rooms and large rooms. This time I got lucky and got a nice large room. However, not nearly enough outlets available for guests' use.
Cons (-) Only one outlet accessible in room. It's apparent, lots of students work here, but they seem to be teaching mediocrity. Why isn't it being run like a Ritz Carlton. Teach Perfection and the best way to run a hotel !! I was supposed to be picked up at the airport by their shuttle, and apparently, the person taking my reservation never signed me up in the reservation book (or wherever he's supposed t...
