Nice room but the gym was worst
Pros:

Room was nice

Cons:

The gym. Treadmill was broken and I almost fell trying to use it. The front desk girl knew it was broken when I told her but no sign on it and the elliptical also didn’t work

Cons:

I think that they can do better with the Intercontinental breakfast. For 3 days it was the same (Egg/Sausages).

Pros:

10 minute drive from Carlisle and Dickinson College.
Pros:

Clean. Staff very pleasant.

Cons:

Breakfast wasn’t very good. The supposed orange juice was undrinkable. The toilet seat in the bathroom was loose. Most importantly there were no grab bars in the shower making it very difficult to get in and out. For the price, it was not a good value.

Pros:

Breakfast was nice; pretty standard fare for hotels at this price point. The location was good, both easy to find and and slightly out of the main flow of traffic. The employees all were very pleasant!

Well kept inside and out.
