My only concern with this hotel is the lack of lobby staff in the afternoon / evening hours. We were able to come and go quite frequently without interacting with anyone. Perhaps the lobby was being monitored remotely but there was no sign to that effect. Also we seemed to have stayed at a very quiet time which may have been the reason

Good hotel

A good value for the money. More amenities than we needed for one night. Comfortable. Room had a musty smell on entering but I switched the hvac to AC from heat and it was a little better.

No issues with the front desk, it was just dirty, even the walls were nasty in the room. I walked in to a stained chair on the right side of the bed. I felt it was so dirty that we had to sleep with blankets from the car instead of the sheets. The worst part was the noise, we were at the corner of the building and all we continued to hear was the door slamming shut. I couldn’t sleep well, I complained on Expedia for at least a partial refund from the hotel due to the inconvenience of everything and it was denied because I didn’t make any complaints when I was there. First off, the hotel was completely booked per front desk. Second, I’m not trying to move all my belongings to another hotel and pay even more money on top of that so I wasn’t trying to complain while I was trying to just relax as I was out of town. Also, housekeeping only comes once a week (sketchy). What a bad way to start my experience of reading PA which was not a bad city at all.

Not bad but certainly not great.

No breakfast, uncomfortable bed, poor lighting throughout. It just gave me this dreary feeling from the moment i walked in the door. The service wasnt bad and the place wasnt dirty it was just very meh.
