Staff saves the night!
We accidentally spilled a cup of hot chocolate on a bed and room service was there in less than 5 minutes to save the day with all new bedding! Clean, friendly staff, and quiet.

8/10 Very good

Nice place
Our stay was quick. The shuttle was very reliable and efficient. The pool wasn’t available which was disheartening for our son and the family/friends that came with us. It would have been nice to know this ahead of time as we planned for a hotel with a pool.

Great hotel and staff
The front desk staff was very friendly and flexible. We requested a late checkout and they allowed us to check out an hour late. They brought sheets to us promptly upon request for the sofa bed.

Room didn't appear it was cleaned
Have been staying at the Penn stater for many years. this trip was not as good as past trips. The room was not very clean. Found hairs on floor an in sink and a used washcloth wrapped inside a clean towel and water still in ice bucket from last occupant. Felt as though wasn't even cleaned at all. Legends restaurant was excellent as it has always been so that was the highlight of the trip. This Hotel is very tired and needs some updating for the price.
