Could have been better

The breakfast ran out of eggs and low on potatoes both days. The 2nd day they had to come fix television because it had been disconnected. The check-in gentleman was very helpful.

We broke down and were fortunate enough to get a room here. They were pleasant, accommodating and went out of their way to to help us. They even let us stay a couple hours later until our rental car was available.

We checked in to our rooms (I had 3 reserved room) after a day at Adventureland. The baby was tired so he was crying as we checked in. The clerk checking us in was a total jerk and said ‘just so you know, if I get too many complaint about noise from the kids I will kick you out” The mom of the baby was devastated and so worried she would cause us all to get kicked out in the middle of the night. For a supposed family friendly hotel next to Adventureland, they sure weren’t friendly to my family. (The baby went straight to sleep as soon as his mommy got him in the room and was able to lay him down and was quiet all night, btw) other than this staff person, the hotel was nice.

Police surrounding the hotel. Couldn't get a refund due to fear for safety. Budget hotels don't work good when they aren't safe. This place has no standard to make for safety. Wild wild west out there.

Quality Inn Altoona

We choose Quality Inn because it was a one night stay during a long road trip. We wanted an affordable quick stay. They serve a free breakfast which the only complaint we had were the eggs were still cold.
