Nice hotel

Hotel is nice & open with large ceilings & importantly has automatic doors at entrance & exit. Check-in staff nice. Not a long wait. Convenient snacks, drinks & toiletry area to purchase items. Loved that we were given for free cold water bottles upon check-in. One thing I suggest changing is handing out cookies with nuts in them. Too many people allergic including my sons. Also there is a sign at seated entryway that says you are given an allergy free cookie at welcome.

Enjoyed our stay. Convention meals were excellent. Very nice quiet room with 4 poster bed! They kept us too busy to try the pool but it looked enticing. Since it is not close to the Philly airport more shuttle informotion at the front desk would be helpful. Nice staff, Great place to stay.

I booked it because there are 2 pool. However , the pool were closed for winter season. The ordering page did not mention anything about that. Kids were so sad because the pool was the only reason we went there.

Old facilty, dated carpets and small roooms. Had ants in bathroom, musty smelling in some parts. Would not stay here again, ecxtrey overpriced. Would have better off staying at our normal very clean Hampton Inn with free breakfast for half the price. Disappointed overall

We have stayed in this hotel, many times, for family reunions. We have fond memories of our past stays. However, this time, we felt that the total experience was not worth the price paid. The room was devoid of its former charm and amenities: such as glasses for water and a magazine about the area, etc. I would not recommend this lodging to friends or family. The food that we consumed was also sub standard.
