Clean, Comfortable, Convenient
Pros:

We spent one night at the Hilton Garden Inn in Wilkes Barre. It had everything we needed. The room was clean and comfortable. The staff was friendly. It was located just a few blocks off the highway. The breakfast (extra cost) was a combination of made to order along with cereal, fruit, yogurt, juice, etc and was a great way to start the day. It was more expensive than others, but after a bad roadside hotel experience a couple of years ago, this was a breath of fresh air and worth the added expense.
