Driving thru Poconos and got foggy in a hurry. Saw that this was right off the highway and nothing else nearby so booked it via choicehotels website at 9pm. It only showed 'smoking' rooms left, but when we got there we saw not too many cars in the lot so asked for non-smoking - was told "only smoking left" - like it was sold-out ??. There are 2 buildings each with 24 rooms (2 stories with 6 per side per floor ( 100-106 107-113 etc). I only saw about 5 cars in my building and 3 in the other building. Total = 48 rooms , but no smoking available ? After reading other reviews here, maybe the unused ones were condemned ?
Anyhow, we were in # 208. I THINK the floor in the room was supposed to be blue/green color but tough to tell thru the brown layer of dirt. (We wore shoes to/from bathroom at night.)
TV reception - bring some tin foil or rabbit ears. They HAVE cable but the only channel that was viewable was CNN. All others are wavy/snowy. Played with the coax- didn't help.
Luckily we had our own pillows to use. Thought we'd mention the issues at check-out , but we never were asked " How was everything ?" Having seen the room we skipped the continental breakfast in the lobby and ate at a restaurant next to Rt 80 called Mary's. I couldn't tell all of the omelette options due to the dried coffee stain on the typed menu - but the food looked good so we ordered raisin french toast , and eggs over: good food. Coffee was very good too.
( Apparently detail isn't a big thing on that street.)
