The pictures are deceiving. Rooms are dated. No warm water at the sink. Stained mattresses and furniture.

Close to Hershey park. Good for a one night quick stay. Wouldn’t stay longer. Smelled a little weird. Beds not really comfortable.

The room I was in was a single King size bed. It had a small sofa in it. The bed and the sofa were comfortable. The staff respected my do not disturb sign on the door while I was out of the room.

I liked the room was clean. What i didnt like the noise of stomping and slamming around stuff when trying to sleep at night. Also, shower water pressure sucked. Also, the vending machines only had 2 items in it, an 1 of each of those. I am diabetic and i looking for something to help me out, snd their wasnt anything that would help immediately!! I never been to a hotel that didnt have snacks.

The property was average and fine for a quick one night stay. But cleanliness needs to be worked on. I found so much of other people’s hair in the bathroom and on the bed. The carpets need to be replaced - they were dingy & idk how long they’ve been there. The whole building could you a face lift. I did like that the room had a mini fridge and microwave for convenience.

We had an outside door in our room that needs rubber gasket around it. Cold air leaks in all around it. Other than that it’s great! And a bargain!

It is near everything and the only draw back is the restaurant takes all the parking so you will have to wait. Also the ice machines are broken and all the furniture doesn't match but you get what you get for the price

Ok for what you pay.
The room was small and needed renovations. There was no coffee pot or tea available in the room. The bed was comfortable. The room was quiet at night. The fridge was good, and we used the microwave no issues. When we went to the kitchen area in the morning it was terrible. There were dirty towels on the counter. I went to make a cup of hot chocolate which I brought myself and the water in the carafe was room temp. I ruined my hot chocolate. It was a total disappointment as far as breakfast. I was able to salvage an apple. The bathroom and sink were clean and looked new. They were nice. The manager was pleasant when we had to leave early. It was not a bad place for the price. The rooms definitely need an upgrade and no carpets.

Terrible due to weather I had to cancel and A worker by the name Dennie would not show grace knowing the weather was horrible. Dennie could have assisted me better an not charge my card. I won’t pick this location again. My car got stuck we couldn’t get to the hotel.

Nice spot close to town.
Very comfortable beds - easy check in - price was right. Furnishings are a bit dated but that’s what helps make it more affordable. Super close to Hershey Theater where we saw a play. Great spot.

This was our 2nd stay here and our room was clean and quiet and met our needs for a one night stay. Close to all atractions and dining options. Bring your own blow dryer if needed as there is none in room and the one at the front desk was already being used.

This hotel is very close to Hershey Chocolate factory and Hershey Park.It takes only 8 minutes's drive to Hershey park.I don't see any other hotel that close to Hershey Park.I liked the hotel because of its location.There is only one issue is that you are not able to check in before 3:00PM. and front desk staff doesn't come at the desk unti 3:00 PM.
