Nice staff, decent stay

The staff was great, especially the night time attendant! The room was nice and big. The sheets on one of the beds smelled really bad like soured laundry. On my way out for the day, I went by the front desk and asked for the sheets to be changed on the bed closest to the window. When I got back to the room, the sheets had been changed on the other bed but not the one that needed changing. I went back to the front desk and the got clean sheets from the attendant. She offered to help me change them which was very nice but I told her I could take care of it. The kitchenette counters had not been cleaned when we first checked in either. There were fresh coffee rings left there so I wiped them down myself. Housekeeping also took all of the toilet paper out of the bathroom on our second day there. We were staying for 4 nights so we had to get more from the front desk. There was a lot of loud traffic noise from the road each night. Sounded like cars were drag racing some nights. We appreciated the ear plugs the hotel provided. Breakfast was completely wiped out the morning we checked out. We did get there later than planned, at 9:45, but breakfast was supposed to be served through 10:00. There was literally one bagel left out of all the food so we went elsewhere for breakfast which was disappointing since breakfast was supposed to come with the price of the room. Overall, we had a decent stay.

The hotel and front desk young lady was good for the most part. However, I selected this hotel for the ev charging. Which would have been great to charge while resting but neither worked. No one knew what the issue was. Front desk contacted the manager who also did not have knowledge of how or why it wasn’t working. Had to travel over 20 mins to find a station which was an inconvenient. No solution or accommodations were made.

I choose the property because of the rating and even though the room was clean, it needs updating.. the matress was hard to sleep and the A/C wasn’t working properly. Temperature was cold outside so it wasn’t a big deal for one night but don’t recommend during summer time.

It's silly to charge $10 for parking in an uncovered parking lot; if anything, you could simply mark parking as "hotel guests only" and still utilize a parking slip. The night time check-in receptionist demonstrated a presence that might indicate further training on hospitality, cordiality and a welcoming spirit might be beneficial.

Great hotel for my quick stay for a concert at the Yuengling Center. It is off a busy street so I can be a little noisy but ear plugs are provided in the room if this may be an issue, otherwise it was great
