Everything was good, except there was squicky noise from the 2 panel door in the hallway where you enter from the elevator area to the rooms hall. It was making noise every time someone enter the hallway, It woke us up every times. Also there was a bad smell coming from shower area, probably from sewer, you could smell when you take shower.

Fine location but not set up to do any work

Stayed here to visit Muhlenberg College. Hotel is downtown close to school. Garage is hard to find. Hotel validates so cost is less but there’s still a charge. Long walk from garage to hotel though all Indoors. Hotel room has a very thin counter for a desk which was not comfortable for my husband and teen who were both trying g to do work. Nor was there a good desk lamp. The front desk suggested they try the library but it was overlooking the lobby so not really quiet and no desk height tables just coffee tables. My husband ended up using a table in the lounge leading into the restaurant to do work but there was loud elevator music playing overhead and people in and out of the restaurant constantly. Not really ideal. Didn’t love the barn door on The bathroom.

Liked: Cleanliness
This was an average hotel with a premium price. The parking for the hotel was ridiculous...they should let guests know that parking in the lot requires a less than convenient walk to the hotel. Additionally, the bed was like sleeping on a stone...so hard. The hotel itself is nice enough, but for the price point, I expected much more.

Beautiful hotel

The hotel was very clean and decorated beautifully. It’s attached to the PPL center so it’s a great option if you are going to a concert.

After figuring out the elevators all was great. Cleanest hotel room we have ever been in. Friendly staff. Dining options after the show we attended were limited and crowded in the area around the PPL Center. Overall a great stay.

The room was really great as was the hotel. The restaurant seemed quite lonely as maybe it was the off season. And like any hotels where there aren't many people at the restaurant, the service, while nice, was slow. I ordered an omelette that took forever. And also, not only was there no room service, no one answered the phone. But the rooms themselves and the hotel are really nice.
