Only thing that I didn’t like was they didn’t have a coffee pot or iron in the room if you wanted those things you had to pay $10 for that stuff or anything extra that you would need for the room

Great place for price. Rude management.

My friends and I love this hotel as it's only a short distance from a concert that happens at the convention center every year. We get a few rooms and hang out in one room until it's time to leave. Never had an issue doing this until this year. Checking into our first room, we see a sign about a $15 fee per extra person per night, not disclosed anywhere when booking. The man tells us that it is actually $20/extra person/night and gets rude when I point out that the sign has a lower fee. Second day, I go to check in to a room we booked for our friend and the same man keeps asking how many people will be staying in the room because he's been watching our room and sees people going in and out with (unopened) beer cans. I point out that said people are guests of the hotel going back to their rooms to get ready or grab drinks. He keeps fixating on the fact that we are all in one room, telling me it could disturb other guests... at 3pm on a Saturday. At this point, the only other guests on our side of the motel were our friends or people going to the same event we are. The next morning while packing our cars to leave, he is making rounds for check-outs and he calls down to ask if we are leaving by my room number only, nobody else's. I found it very unsettling that he had memorized my room number and had admitted to watching my room specifically. In every interaction we had, he was condescending and rude. My friends and I will definitely be looking elsewhere for next year's stay.

The rooms were updated and really clean! They were not quiet though. We could hear our neighbors talk and they were not loud. The heat fan was really loud, so every time it turned on, it woke us up. The staff here were super nice and helpful!

I am unsure why they put me on the second floor on the back side. The backside could be good so not much Highway noise. But they put me on the back side and somebody on the front side was taking a noisy shower. I could be wrong but I guess the second floor is not 88 accessible with the elevator but we had to haul our Goods upstairs. Not cool

Great little place - no frills

For a small family run motel, this one was better than most. Squeaky clean. Close to highway but without the noise. If you just need a place to rest, it works.

It was a convenient stay for downtown. We had stains on our beds but he upgraded us to a king which also had stains. Not the cleanest but I always clean my hotel rooms. A comfortable stay would recommend but only if your looking for a cheap motel.

Nice, cozy place.

My husband and I were in Lancaster for a course. We were greeted with a smile and when we asked if we could have a 1st floor room vs second floor, they provided immediately accommodation. The bathroom light had a fan which could not be turned off. That was my only complaint. Would have liked a second chair in the room. For the cost, it was a great stay. Would go there again.

This location is a great value for what it is - basic and clean. The area is somewhat remote and there arent a lot of choices so we were very happy with what this hotel provided.
