Terrible, would not recommend to my enemies.
Pros:

Location was great, very close to everything. Only 1 hour from Philadelphia and 2 hours from DC.

Cons:

They placed me at the last room at the end of the hallway. I could hear people coming in and out of the side door all hours of the night. The smoking gazebo was right outside of my window and I could hear people as early as 6am and as late as 12am laughing and talking. Additionally, at 2am someone was shooting fireworks off in the parking lot. Couldn’t get any rest at all. Cleanliness of the room was terrible, I could see dirt on the floor as I walked in, old food left in the microwave, and bugs in the shower.

Comfortable but not appealing. I would return but not with my wife. She said she would not
Pros:

Staff, convenient location near the highway, sort of private, great amenities like a large refrigerator, microwave, and hot plate

Cons:

The room seemed dingy, the carpet looked and smelled old, no room service for less than a 7-day stay, which meant that if I needed new linens or towels, I would have to get them at the front desk.
