Cons. The hotel couldn't find my reservation even with the reservation number and apparently can't look them up by last name. It smelled horrible and wasn't clean. The fire alarm was falling off the wall. The shower spicket was also falling out. Bed was dirty and not comfortable. Also did not feel safe at this hotel. Would not stay here again or recommend.

8.8Very good
Anonymous, Jul 2016

Pros. This was the third time my family and I have stayed here. It's not the brightest or shiniest hotel. But, for the price, location, and indoor pool and spa, you can't go wrong. The staff was kind and courteous. We will be coming back next year when the kids visit their grandparents.

William, Nov 2014

Pros. The location in the Allentown area was convenient to major attractions, and quiet at night. The continental breakfast was average, though they did have extended hours of food availability

Cons. The shower head had mold on it and the hair dryer didn't work. However, when reported to the staff they replaced both swiftly, so no real complaint
