We stayed here while we were visiting Hershey park. It is out of the business and a great location. There were fun activity’s for the kids and they gave the kids free ice cream at the restaurant.

We were here for a conference. This hotel is in a great area. The only problem was there were kids running up and down through the halls, knocking on doors while we were trying to rest. It is very clean and the staff are very friendly.

Johnny, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Easy access off the highway and a personable staff that made stopping here a pleasure I'd repeat. The room was immaculate, comfortable and pleasant. Parking was easy and convenient. I could have easily gone out to a restaurant for dinner, but at the end of a long week, went to the hotel restaurant, O'Reilly's. The staff was as congenial, accommodating and pleasant as the hotel. I am very satisfied.
