Toilet bowl was so dirty (with poop) when we arrived and they gave us smaller room than we've booked. That means we paid more than what we got.

Everything was amazing and this is one of my favourite hotels, but with the winter, the rooms are not insulated well enough or the heaters don’t work or something because we were FROZEN out. Third floor lake view.

Will not recommend
First, there is not a drop off area. Had to walk the very icy parking lot to get to the door. Secondly, welcomed by a not welcoming muslim lady wearing a pro Palestine scarf which made us very uncomfortable. Thirdly, no microwave in the room Icy parking, icy sidewalks and front desk ?!?!?

This property is really nice and in a great location in downtown PA. Walked to a bunch of bars and restaurants and a short walk back to our hotel. The continental breakfast is rather sad.. eggs, sausage, potatoes and some bread and cereal options.. no juice options. Overall a nice stay.. beds were rather soft and hard to sleep on (personal preference!)

It was minus 22 outside. It was freezing in the room but the hallway was warm for staff. The thermostat was set to 58 in the room with a printed note overtop stating to not turn on the heat. I ended up stripping the sheets and blankets off the second bed to stay warm at night. I don't know what was wrong with the heater, but freezing customers is not the solution.
