Pros:

We went up for Groundhog Day and got a perfectly nice hotel room for the nights we were there. Wish we had access to the closed bar and grill just so we had somewhere to sit and eat dinner, but the beds were comfy and great for what we needed!

Pros:

This property turned out much better than I expected from the pictures. Bar/Restaurant is closed since Covid times, so it is just a quiet simple place to rest. We had everything ready for our arrival, it was self check in. I suggest taking showers in the evening, because it is an old building and boiler is very slow to hit up, so in the morning you may run water for 15 min before it warms up. Giant Eagle and Dollar General and Sheetz are very close, across the hotel is an old church, police is one block away, so it is very safe and convenient place to be. And only 30 miles from Punxsutawney:)

Pros:

There was no hot water at all , the front desk staff said when we got there that since there wasn’t many people there and that we were on the 3rd floor the hot water might take 15 minutes or longer to reach our room, I let the water run for over an hour and still no hot water only ice cold… staff said they could give us a room on the second floor where maybe the water would get hott a little sooner BUTTT the room they were gonna switch us had no working heat! It a little portable heater , no thanks… it was brought to the staffs attention about the hot water issue and they did pretty much nothing to resolve it, when we checked out I called and asked for some kind of compensation,was told “let me call you back” that was three days ago I’ve left text messages and voicemails since , silence no response….
DO NOT STAY HERE … place is not good at all and has zero amenities. No fridges,no microwave,no Hot Water … and customer service gets two thumbs down as does the entire hotel… hope this helps potential customers out before they waste their money in this place …

Pros:

The hotel was near and clean. The rooms were very nice, the only thing that would make it perfect would be get some small fridges in the rooms. Otherwise everything was great

Pros:

Everything was great except for one thing I know it’s an old building and you expect to wait for hot water, but I waited almost a half hour And the water Even Luke warm When I took a shower. Other than that, I have a wedding to go to the left me check in a little early, which was amazing. The bed was comfortable and the room was nice and clean.
