“Old, but Quaint”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2012
4
people found this review helpful

This is the 3rd review of this hotel because I cannot say enough good things. Yes, it's older. Yes, it's old fashioned. So, if you're looking for a Hilton or a Hyatt, you won't find that here. However, if you're looking for inexpensive, quiet, great location and nice people...you will have it all here. You don't have to move your car, unless you're going on the tour of the battlegroud. You can walk everywhere!! My husband and I have stayed here for 3 years straight, and every night we walk across the road and through the tombstones. It's lovely. And the staff?? So, so nice!! As for breakfast...walk to Friendly's (to the right) or go to our favorite: The Avenue (to the left). OH! And being able to park outside your door??? What a great thing!! We will be staying here again this year...Don't let your need for all the expensive stuff get in your way of missing out on this gem.

Room Tip: Go to The Avenue for breakfast (or anytime) AND try the Pizza Restaurant across the street!! Off the...

“Great location, staff trying hard, but just not good”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 November 2011

This hotel is in a terrific location for visiting Gettysburg. And the price is very reasonable. And the staff are friendly and helpful. But the place is in very bad shape, the rooms do not smell good, and the pool was opaque. I think it does have potential though, and might try it again if I go back to Gettysburg.

“Great Location & Friendly Staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 October 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We chose this hotel after reading the other reviews for a recent stay. The location is great! Close to lots of food and shopping as well as historic sites. Loved the free internet in the room. The staff is also very friendly. As others mentioned the motel is tired and could use some paint and refreshing. However it is clean although to prove this point more, they could really do with some new towels and sheets (they are very worn which make you feel they aren't as clean). I think if they made that small investment they would be rated higher by more folks. The mattresses were in good shape, no sagging etc. we actually slept great and we are spoiled with a Tempur-Pedic at home. So bottom line- If you don't mind a well used older motel this is a great stay in a great location. If you are looking for something more up to date and cracks, creaks and spots freak you out- this is not your place.

“Don't Be Put Off”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 September 2011
2
people found this review helpful

I know that I've only rated this motel as "average', but where it is situated, the friendliness of the staff and the general "feel" to the place, were all excellent. This is a tired motel; it has seen better days. However, it ticked all our boxes. It was at the top end of the main street through the town of Gettysburg, which allowed us a rare event in America: walking from the hotel into town. It was also right on two of the main parts of the famous battle: the town itself and Cemetery Hill, as well as being a short drive away from the Battlefield Visitors Centre.

As our three week holiday was visiting Civil War battlefields, Gettysburg is a must. When we first came here 16 years ago, you simply drove onto the battlefield and muddled your way round; now you travel around the whole battlefield site with an audio tour guide CD. These are expensive, but our host at the motel gave us his for free. We bought him a 6 pack of beer as a thank you and he was genuinely surprised and thanked us greatly. I find such acts of generosity really touching and uplifting.

The room was fine, replete with bath, shower, fridge, comfortable bed and plenty of room. It was also great to be able to park right outside of the room, as they are all on the ground floor. Admittedly, the breakfast was orange juice, coffee and a pastry, but we didn't mind, because we didn't expect any more. The price, given the location was very reasonable at $75 for the Saturday night and $55 for the Sunday.

So, if you're visiting Gettysburg, don't be put off by this quaint motel. We loved it.
