We enjoyed our Lancaster visit being in downtown.
Pros:

The location was ideal for our four night stay. We could walk all of the downtown area to enjoy shops and restaurants and the library. I liked the large lobby.

Cons:

The front entrance near the reception desk needs attention—-too loud. Apparently the roller bushing are severely worn. No microwave in the room.

Pros:

Check in was so easy; front desk staff & the concierge were very knowledgeable, professiona, & kind. The breakfast was great! And the location? Fabulous. Accessing downtown Lancaster was made super easy by how walkable everything was from the hotel site. I was pleasantly surprised that the pool was handicap accessible & a comfortabletemperature. I didn't get a chance to acccess the outdoor areas but from what I could see, they looked lovely.

Cons:

Accessing the parking garage was not my favorite. We had to cross the street and walk in while dodging cars entering & exiting. The elevator garage was soooo slow. I was thankful my car was in a secure, well lit location but it was difficult to get everything unloaded & reloaded.
