If you're looking for a wonderful and clean place to stay, Northland Motel is for you! There's no bells and whistles (pool or gym area), but there is an amazing bowling alley literally attached to the motel! The room was cute, very clean and had everything that we needed for our stay. I could recommend them anymore. We'll definitely be staying again!! Thank you for a wonderful time!

I have been to many motels in the past but this one was one of the best motels that I have stayed in. Very clean and up to date furnishings. It was a great overnight experience. ONE critique that I have is that they did not have an iron or ironing board in our room. Overall great place to stay.

A Wonderful Budget Hotel

Budge hotel wise, it’s hard to beat this hotel. Clean, decent sized room and comfortable beds. Convenient and safe location. Little things like pieces of chocolates on your nightstand show how they care for you. I would give this place a 5 star. But since it is lumped with other hotels, for a basic budget hotel, a 4 star is quite remarkable.

The Big Lebowski Audio Tape

This was an affordable motel close to Penn State. It was clean and comfortable, and the staff was friendly. The only odd part about it is it's built adjacent to a bowling alley. You could hear the bowling balls rolling and the pins falling. But I honestly didn't mind it; it was incredibly soothing and I fell asleep quickly every night. Like the sounds of a summer storm. I was also told the food at the Bowling Alley was excellent, but didn't get a chance to try it.

Had a wonderful stay for the price. Very clean, well kept and well appointed room. Water and candy awaited and a red bow on each door for the holiday was a nice touch. Beds were very comfortable which my bad back appreciated. The only downside was the heater fan ran rather loudly. Could have just been the unit in my room. Would love to stay there again if the heater noise wasn't an issue.

We had a fantastic time at Northland motel. The customer service was excellent, and the room was very clean. We paid a reasonable price and our expectations were all exceeded.
