Pros:

Location good. Nice room. Would stay again.

Cons:

Just details. Early room key offer didn't work- had to go in and ask for a key after 5pm. Shower curtain too short and had to be careful not to flood the floor taking a shower. Minor things and would not affect me returning.

Very nice! For this price, I would definitely stay here again.
Pros:

I was actually surprised at how clean, fresh, and up to date this hotel was. The outside isn't too "pretty" so when I walked in and saw how clean and not rundown it was, I was pleasantly surprised. The breakfast was perfect too, a lot of variety offered. More than I expected honestly.

Cons:

I think the outside parking lot, and around the building just looks a little rough, but the inside is great!

Overall, this is a good value and close to Penn State and downtown. It is very easy to find.
Pros:

I liked the variety.

Cons:

I didn't like that everything was disposable. It seems like such a waste to throw away everything instead of having reusable flatware and plates.

Good Value for the cost of our stay.
Pros:

It was extremely close to the venue for graduation!

Cons:

Our room had a faint body odor smell to it. Thankfully I had brought along my room spray, so that helped, but the room definitely had an odor to it.
