“Very clean, renovated rooms. Better than Pocono Palace!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 January 2011
1
person found this review helpful

This motel is only 1 miles off the highway, but is worth the 4 minute drive. The rates are better & the staff even discounted our rates based on my word that I spoke to staff earlier in the day that quoted me $45 (which was true). The smokers are expected to stay on one half of the motel separated by 2 fire doors. Our non-smoking side smelled & appeared clean. I always check for BedBugs since attending a BedBug seminar- nothing found here! The beds were very comfortable & the room spacious. We wish we would have just extended our stay here & skipped Pocono Palace!!

Non-smoking-room smelled smoky, not very clean, would not stay there again. Free WiFi worked fine. Ground floor room was affected by noise from the floor and of guests in the room above.

“Not worth the money”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 September 2009
2
people found this review helpful

We chose this hotel because of the price and proximity to Lehigh University. In retrospect, we could have afforded the extra few dollars to stay at a place that was a little safer and nicer. I actually got up in the middle of the night to make sure my car was still in the parking lot. The guy behind us in line for check-in was inquiring about the cost of an hourly room rental, which seemed to be standard practice for this establishment. We also couldn't figure out why there was a guy drinking a beer in the back of a pickup truck in the parking lot, but that was the least of our worries.

Normally smells don't bother me too much, but the room and hallways smelled like stale cigarettes and hookers. The elevator took us from floor 1 promptly back down to floor 1 and we found that taking the stairs was easier than trying to make the elevator work.

Some of the electrical outlets didn't work and neither did the hair dryer. The bathroom wasn't disgusting, but it wasn't exactly "clean" either. The bed was fairly comfortable, but the sheets, carpet, pillows, and just about everything smelled like stale cigarettes. Also, the "Continental Breakfast" was pretty much non-existent.

Also, there was a very old van in the parking lot with 4 flat tires and a tarp over it that looked like it had been there for months.

Bottom line: Don't stay there, it's shady and not worth it.

“Not bad, but could be nicer”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 March 2009
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed a Friday evening, and didn't find anything unremarkable here. Room was smaller than typical but was reasonably clean and in good repair. HVAC unit worked nicely. Upkeep of the building is adequate but not in keeping with the neighborhood competitors. Free breakfast is a perk, wireless internet worked well (we were adjacent to the breakfast area), and hotel is conveniently located near shopping, highways, etc.

“Extremely Low Quality and Service”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2008

person found this review helpful

Had to change our own sheets! Other basic amenities missing. Room was also quite dirty and smelled unclean. Clock, coffeemaker, remote were broken in the room. Price ($70 per night) certainly shouldn't have equalled this level of service.
