We came to celebrate my daughter’s 8th birthday as a family and our stay was perfect! Everything was clean and well main
Pros:

We came to stay one night for my daughter birthday just to swim. The hotel was perfect for our needs. Everything was clean and the pool was crystal clear and well maintained.

Cons:

The pool was a little colder than we would have liked, but my kids still swam and had a blast.

Pros:

Location was convenient but noisy from road traffic, refrigerator sounded like a jack hammer, and climate control was odd… it went from freezing to blowing hot air with a change of 2 degrees on the thermostat.

Pros:

Property was clean and tidy. Staff was friendly except the one manager who was on duty at our check in . She was very unwelcoming however the young man who initially served was great! The only other issue we had was the towels located in the pool area courtesy of the hotel were damp . Other then that I would recommend staying here !!

Pros:

Room was very clean and the bed was comfortable! I enjoyed all of the breakfast options and how most options were healthy. The breakfast attendant was very sweet asking everyone how breakfast was and collected your dishes for you! I will definitely stay in the future when I’m in State College!
