Good for a night or two. Clean, bed was comfortable, had a microwave. We stay there every year because we attend an event in Harrisburg, so we've been a repeat customer. The staff is super nice and professional. The price is good as well, so I recommend it.

This was a charming old style motel with fairly updated rooms. Its not a five star hotel. It was clean, the staff was helpful and pleasant. Everything worked as it should. I stayed for a car show weekend with my son. This place was a very good lower cost option. I will stay again.

Staff was odd about getting extra towels… room did not reflect photos or feel like a good place to be. If you can go somewhere else, maybe just go somewhere else so you don’t wake up to people yelling at each other..
