Pros:

The hotel was beautifully laid out right in downtown lancaster, pennsylvania. Our room was spacious and clean right down the hall from the pool. The restaurant downstairs was very nice. As was the breakfast. Parking was right across the street in a nice covered parking lot.

Cons:

I had to go home.

Good food. Friendly staff. Not family friendly or peaceful.
Pros:

Breakfast was good and bar food was good, staff friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Lot of road noise. Hotel in general had noisy and loud guests that should have been monitored or spoken to by staff. This is not a peaceful environment.

Decent hotel but be careful with extra breakfast charges
Pros:

Great location and very nice breakfast.

Cons:

The fact that I was charged for breakfast twice. Once with the room rate and then again when I actually went for breakfast the guy charged me again. I read a review that a lady put up who said the same and to watch out for it. So someone is either on a scam or doesn’t know what they are doing.
