The staff was very helpful. Rebecca at the front desk went above and beyond to make sure we had a pleasant stay. We had a small inconvenience with the heater, and Rebecca took care of it immediately, making sure everything was resolved quickly. Breakfast had good options, and the staff in the breakfast room were very kind and friendly, ensuring the food was promptly replenished. The management’s care and attentiveness are clearly reflected in the staff.

First - the lobby was inviting and the check in process was very quick and easy. The room was warm when we arrived (January in northern PA), which was extremely nice. We saw a live performance next door and when we returned found out the restaurant was open until 10. The bartender was very nice and attentive and the food was wonderful. The bed / pillows were perfect and the room was clean and very relaxing. One of the few places that provide a small note pad and pen. Breakfast was amazing. Fruit was fresh, waffle was perfect (my favorite) and the coffee was excellent. The Breakfast staff were friendly and very helpful. Checkout was seamless. We will go back to this hotel anytime we are in the area.
