Great experience, relaxing, beds were amazing, staff was polite and eager to help, rooms were super clean and roomy They have an inside pool, it’s a little small for a hotel that size but it was clean, had a nice fire pit outside, it was very cold out so it was nice to sit by while smoking The breakfast was good, they had an ok variety

Will definitely stay there again!

Dani McDermott

Staff was absolutely wonderful and very agreeable It was lovely service Moved me to a better room

Better view and roomier bc the first one my wheelchair kept hitting the walls, but that could have been my daughter’s maneuvering, lol Not handicap friendly, but then again neither are most people when you’re trying to get in an elevator Shame Walls are waaay too thin! ‘Nough said But overall great stayAlso hilarious, can’t reach microwave, too high! lol

Marco

Management is lacking I was overcharged for two nights and been pushed from pillar to post trying to have it corrected Spoke with two members of management and three members of Marriott customer service

Someone from customer service is finally correcting the hotel’s error I recommend any other hotel in the area if you want to avoid a headache and lost time

This was our second trip through the area and we liked the hotel so much last year that we stayed again This time we added the room service option The king deluxe suite was perfect, clean and large

The handle on the cabinet holding the mini fridge was broken but that’s very easy to work around Check in was extremely quick and helpful Two very nice men were at the desk The food from the bistro was delicious Bathroom was huge, The shower while not what i was hoping for (would have preferred a bathtub for the small human) was beautiful and luxurious Nothing better than an easy check-in, hot meal, hot shower and comfy bed after a long day on the road

Liline

I don’t even know where to begin with this place it was my first time there , we booked through a third party when we got there with our two twelve-year-old kids the place look very nice and the front desk attendance was very nice and friendly however ; when we got to our room , the room we booked was not the same room that we got That was one problem, second when we pull the blanket back to sleep there was food crumbs all over the bed 🛌

We called the front desk the lady came with fresh blankets she asked me if she should change the blanket or if I wanted to change it I told her no problem I will fix the bed with the new sheets The manager offer to change our room to a cleaner room with one king size bed and a pull-out couch 🛋 for the boysI told them that was okay don’t worry about it we will check out the next day as we was getting ready to get checked out there was a bug on my sheets I would not go back to this hotel although the manager refund us for the night ,the general manager after several phone calls

Maria Vestal

The hotel overall was great Very clean, lovely staff and well maintained facility So happy we chose here over staying at Mohegan Sun! I do want to point out one exceptional person

He was a waiter in the on site Bistro Wildflowers His name was Khalid We sat down to eat and it did not matter what I forgot to ask for because this gentleman was on top of it He asked if I wanted it before I had a chance to forget it! And the way he described the food when asked about it made me instantly want to eat that! And the food did not disappoint He was friendly, personable and professional This hotel is lucky to have him

I have stayed here twice and cannot wait to get back First, the location is a perfect place to be centrally located for the sights and events of the area The Lodge’s grounds are beautiful

The units are perfectly cleaned and beautifully decorated The kitchen is so well stocked, you have everything you need More than that, I immediately felt I was at home Joyce & Dean are so wonderful and are there for whatever you need My morning walks were filled with beauty and nature There is a peace that surrounds you here I would and do recommend the Lodge at Keen Lake to everyone Looking forward to going back very soon!

Stephanie Dubois

Stayed here this past weekend The Lodge at Keen Lake was a clean, cozy, peaceful place to stay The owners live on the property and are very friendly and accommodating

The suite we had was well kept and very comfortable to stay in The lake is a brisk walk through well maintained paths and nice added bonus There are spots on the property where you can set up a fire and just enjoy the outdoors Highly recommend this place if you are looking for a quiet getaway

suzy cizek

Joyce and Deans Lodge was a fantastic start on our road trip journey It was the nicest and best place we stayed at actually during our 15 week road trip

I wish we would have stayed there our whole trip honestly It was very comfortable, clean and well equipped with all the essentials Joyce and Dean were a pleasure to meet and talk with as well as being great hosts I hope to be back one day soon

We have stayed at this hotel several times and it’s consistently well maintained, convenient, pet friendly with helpful friendly staff This trip we accidentally left an article and 30 minutes later when we discovered our oversight I called the front desk, the clerk immediately sent the housekeeping supervisor up to the room The article was found and placed in the safe for us to retrieve on our return trip

We were so thankful for the immediate action

Samuel Jankey

I have stayed here a couple times The staff has been extremely friendly and helpful each time The rooms were well cleaned in my experience, with the exception of the armchair in my room

Convenient location next to a pretty decent IHOP and a gas station I have a few complaints, some are probably due to a renovation of the hotel being needed- The key cards always struggle to read, in all readers- The tap water tastes a bit like chlorinated pool water, and left me with a sore throat- Some of the furniture is pretty worn- The TVs in rooms are pretty dated and have poor speakers They need to be loud to be understood You will probably hear your neighbors’ TV- Compared to other choice hotels, I found the breakfast to be mediocre in quality and selectionOverall, if this is a convenient location for your trip, I think it’s worth considering for a stay

Nancy Gilbert

Extremely pet friendly! Very friendly, welcoming, helpful staff Rooms are large Yeah, it’s not brand new, but it’s not run down either

Water is HOT, and good pressure Breakfast area clean, and we’ll monitored Love that they have hot coffee/tea 24/7 Lots of these types of motels say they do but don’t! Parking is easy, convenient to packing up, unloading

Sanabel B

I was told that the hotel would try their hardest to get me to check in around 12pm I drove 3 hours with my baby and the 2 woman at the front were so beyond rude! One of the woman’s name is Kim and the other had black hair I was being so polite and nice to them the entire time and remained that way until the end

All they had to do was put me in which ever room was clean Check out is at 11am, so surely by 12pm a room should be cleaned They told me that they will ask the housekeeper to go into the room that was assigned to me to clean it and they will let me know when it is done They never let me know, over 1 hour later I go to my assigned room and knock on the door and nobody was there The housekeepers cart was about 10 rooms ahead so she finished my room a long time ago I went back to the front desk and asked Kim if my room was ready and she did not even answer me, instead had me insert my card, gave me my keys and that’s it For a hotel to treat a guest like that one with a baby nonetheless is beyond unprofessional! I will never recommend someone to stay here

Spacious room with two queen beds and a sleep sofa With all in use and four guests we still had room to be comfortable Microwave and refrigerator in the room

Nice work desk set up with plenty of outlets and space which also served to separate the two beds from the sleep sofa All the staff was helpful and friendly I fell in love with the cucumber infused water in the lobby! And the breakfast, included for free, was the best I’ve had in a long time Of course a make your own waffle machine, excellent coffee, eggs bacon, pound cake, delicious mini quiches on Sunday And it was open at 6:30 or sometimes even a little earlier so we were able to get breakfast before our early departures for kayaking on the Lehigh Great location for all the tourist attractions, shopping and conveniences Our kayaking trip felt luxurious The bathroom was oddly large with only one towel bar and not a hook to be found anywhere Overall a great stay

Melinda Lewis

My husband and I loved how comfortable the bed was the shower seems like it had endless hot waterthe rooms were very clean and the reception at the desk was very friendly and helpful whenever we had a question about something! The different kind of water in the lobby were amazing the best flavor was the strawberry! The morning breakfast were amazing expeecially not that far from our room and the chairs and fire pit was very nice out side! We found out favorite place to stay and when we come back down to the area again we found out perfect spot!!! Loved it here and it went bye 2 quickly I told my husband 2 days isn’t enough 😂

Errol Van Stralen

I stayed twice, different rooms But that maintenance issues that I reported to the front desk (one issue two times) they were never taken care ofIn one room, a bedside table was missing

(Where to put stuff?) One bathroom shower door opened so that I could not reach the shower controls without getting into the shower first I like to let the cold water flow out so the water can be warm when I do get into itZero complaints about the staff I interacted with, all were cheerful and went out of the way to make my stay that much better The rooms were lackingReader, is any review here helps you to decide, please give that review a thumbs up!

My husband spent 2 nights here to celebrate our 3rd anniversary and it was by far the best time We travel a lot out of state and have stayed at many different places But this is our top place so far

The people checking us in were so pleasant and super friendly We ate at the Japanese restaurant and it was the best we have ever had from the service to the food Room was very clean and smelled amazing The area is beautiful and calm We recommend this place to anyone just looking to relax

Genevieve Cyr

Great surprise Didn’t expect much for our one night stay but the location is great by the little river Food was ok, both pool were nice

Decor a little 90’s There was no weird smell you would expect from a hotel of this age Room was clean, staff friendly Breakfast included was a good surprise before hitting the road again Will definitely stop by again if we drive this way again

Alicia Buentiempo

Our room was clean and for the price we were happy Breakfast every morning, with options of their on site restaurants We had our youngest with us, so we loved the family friendly environment

We did see an area for corn hole and an additional pool We lost a phone and the front desk and GM were helpful in shipping it to us We would stay here again

The food is absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere outside is really cool The back bar is awesome Unfortunately my only concern is the service

Very, very slow Mostly it is kids who are lackadaisically walking around and all talking to each other in a small area Even on not busy nights, the service isn’t good The bartender is great though and the food again is very good, that is why we come back Just wish the service would be a bit better

David Tigue

Ambiance 5/5 Drinks 4/5 Food quality 4/5

this is where it goes awry portions 1/5 now things like burgers and the such look about perfect for their price Got the brisket special about 30 dollars Got about 5 bacon sized slices of brisket and a small amount of potatoes Paella good on the meat portions, but little rice and over salted Calamari app was fantastic Overall not bad Wouldn’t order an entree again I don’t think But for lunch a burger why not

Michelle Sitko

The hostess went out of her way to make us feel welcome tonight The food was delicious and the Cosmopolitans were perfect I like going earlier so I can hear the conversation at the table before the restaurant and bar fill up

Many positive changes under new management Will def put it back on my places to go out and eat at again!

35 stars Overall nice, clean hotel

Decent sized rooms And you get what you pay for Staff was friendly, attentive and wanted to help We had some issues with our room with one of showers not having hot water and the lock to the internal door (to second room) was broken – both these could not be fixed as the maintenance staff does not seem on site (during the evenings)-we were only here for a night Breakfast was average for a hotel this size

This is THE best place to stay in the area, especially if you are visiting Montage Mountain for work or play! I can’t remember the last time i was so attentively cared for as a guest Every staff member is outstanding in their customer service and gracious to all Everything was perfect and i felt so valued as a customer

Fun and convenient casino to visit! Joe a Roulette table dealer is the bomb 🤩 he’s the absolute best to really have a good time with!! Restaurants are all delicious, but you need to make reservations The cooking show through the Rustic Kitchen is also a blast too!! W a group or not! Highly recommend making a reservation there, it’s a show you need to experience that at least once it’s a lot of fun and wine is generously paired and served with each course!!! 😍

Rock King

It’s pretty sad now The racing side is abandoned The rest rooms were filthy

Floors were badly in need of cleaning and urine smell was overwhelming 😫 The drinking fountains were still turned off for some reason Drink service was pitiful if you could even find a server Valet service no longer offered I don’t understand what happened Covid!? I’m sick of that being used as an excuse for everything BTW they never paid out much at the slots but they should be ashamed of the lack of winners I was here all day on a Tuesday and never heard anything positive from any patrons and no one was winning much of anything Just feeding bills into machines and if you get a bonus it payed like 500 max

Kendralove813 “Kendralove813”

Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs is amazing! If you visit for the day, there are many slots and table games to keep you happy and entertained Definitely get a momentum card so you can get credits to use for future visits Becoming a member also gives you the opportunity to get a free or discounted room in the hotel

The hotel is Beautiful, the rooms are awesome The decor alone makes you feel like a million bucks The customer service is always on point and they really are there to help in any way they can I have never had a bad experience with the casino or hotel I highly recommend checking it out The restaurants are also soooo delicious! It’s truly top quality

Cindy Berger

The staff here are extremely friendly, down to earth, and accommodating My room was spotless and the housekeepers were very friendly I didn’t even have to ask for replacement towels or amenities

The last hotel I was at (Sleep Inn in Dunmore, PA) was like pulling teeth just to get a towel and a roll of toilet paper every 3-4 days! Not to mention the head of housekeepers was extremely rude and argued, screamed at, and called me “scrap” to my face- not here though! I would recommend this location to anyone It’s peaceful, quiet, and no issues or drama the way I experienced at Sleep Inn What a breath of fresh air They have a nice selection of breakfast items every morning, and coffee and hot tea available 24/7 They also have a gym and laundry facilities available 10 out of 10

Courtney Spatto

The staff is wonderful! So kind and attentive The beds were clean and comfy The breakfast was so good

You can make your own hot Belgian waffles and they have powdered sugar and syrup Mmmmm! Muffins, fruit, toast, bagels, cereal, oatmeal, eggs, juices, coffee I didn’t have cash to tip the housekeeper Molly, so I found she has a boyfriend working there, and I was able to venmo him her tip Again, all super friendly people! Very affordable!

Barret Rhoads

Booked through a 3rd party booking site as it said dogs were allowed Checked in and walked into the lobby with dogs and was told they were not allowed It was nearing midnight and we were driving through the area and ended up having to go down the road another 45 minutes to a pet-friendly hotel

Microtel refused to refund us for the 2 rooms we did not stay in that night, and the next day the manager accused my wife and me of being on video sneaking the dogs into a room When I challenged them to review the video, they conceded that we had not stayed in the rooms and had left the hotel They would still only refund 1 of the 2 rooms Very dissatisfied, I have never stayed at a Microtel before, and I will never give them any of my money ever again Plenty of other choices where customers are treated fairly

Tracie Saunders

When we arrived we found the place to be well maintained and the inside to be very clean The lobby is very warm, especially for it to be a summer day they had it too warm inside which made waiting for help at the desk unpleasant But it is pretty here and they provide cool water in the lobby

Our room is pretty and clean LOTS of closet and storage space,and a small kitchen!! I was not terribly happy to return to our hotel after dark to find the parking lot completely dark!!! I’m with my daughter and as 2 females in an unfamiliar area this was a bit scary So I spoke to the lady at the desk and she had no idea why they weren’t on after 9pm and when I asked if there was a way to get them on her response was “I don’t know, it’s my first day back” And she wasn’t terribly friendly but I felt bad for her However, I will say when I had to go out to my car a mere 10 minutes later the lot lights were on, so someone knew what to do The pool and exercise rooms look clean although small Overall I think I would reccomend this place just for the rooms alone so far We will try the breakfast in the morning

Camille Dickinson

The best thing about this place is the location Several restaurants around, a movie theater and a small mall But save yourself the hassle and book with one of the other hotels

The rooms are badly maintained The wall next to the door had a hole in it – looks like someone slammed the door into it The bathroom had bad patch jobs on the wall with peeling tape The toilet seat was stained But the cherry on top was Tatiana at the front When we checked in on the Saturday, she acted as if it was the biggest inconvenience in the world Like we were actually bothering her by asking her to do her job And her attitude carried over to the next day when we were checking out Check out is at 11 And I understand that We asked if it could be pushed to noon, first because I wasn’t feeling well and we had a long drive ahead of us and I wanted to be sure that I wouldn’t get car sick Second because Gold and above members do get late check outs And we were only asking for an hour That didn’t suit Miss Tatiana who was rude and yelled at my better half for even daring to ask for a courtesy that he’s entitled to I’d say she needs a bit more training but there are other reviews that refer to the rude front desk So perhaps she needs a whole new career If this is the kind of service that Marriott condones, then quite frankly I’m all for giving up the Marriot Credit Card and switching loyalty to some other chain

Jessica Samyn

This place was awful for a Marriot We arrive at the hotel around 9pm , the lady was chatting on her phone Place was no clean at all

The towel at the pool were everywhere, none were clean Dogs were at the pool I had to advise the reception Wifi and TV were not working I trying calling the reception many many times , no answer Room were very dirty, hair in the tub, window very dirty Morning breakfeast was sausage, bacon and egg Coffee was awful I paid 356$ usd the nigh , they charge me 515$ cdn I ask to speak the manager it’s been 2 days and nobody called me I called back today they told me manager is not there I am dissapointed in the service for that expensive for the hotel

Room was clean and we’ll appointed What made my stay special was Megan, the bartender on Wednesday and Friday this past week She went above and beyond to get me the blue cheese stuffed olives I requested with my martini which really made my class reunion memory special

Thanks Megan!! Love your passion for customer service You don’t know how special you are

This is one of the best hotels my fiancé and I have stayed at The staff was extremely nice, the rooms were well kept and to top it off, they are super dog friendly! Rocky absolutely LOVED his stay here They welcome your doggo with a goody bag filled with treats, a ball, waste bags and a yummy recipe! If we ever return to the area we will hands down stay here

I was scheduled to attend an afternoon event in a nearby town and needed to spend one night in a hotel before driving back to Philadelphia The Anthracite seemed nice and I didn’t mind the price, although not inexpensive, for a Saturday night in summer season I checked in, had a light and pleasant dinner on the terrace (the wait staff was very nice), and returned to my room (room was clean and comfortable, except for stained carpet)

I went to bed at 11 pm and was woken up a couple hours later by a party Loud talking, shrieking and laughing, kids running up and down the halls and into and out of a couple of the roomsI finally called the front desk at 2:30 am and eventually it quieted down I barely got any sleep When I went to get coffee in the morning, there was a large pile of discarded Domino Pizza boxes in the coffee room, plus a case of empty Bud cans (I overheard two cleaning staff members talking about it who expressed consternation) I asked the front desk if that type of party in the hotel was commonplace Front desk said there were two wedding parties and that the weekends were often noisy Barely an apology; more of a shrug I spent $250 with the expectation of not only getting a bed in a room, but actually getting some sleep Is this not the primary function of a hotel? Instead it seemed I was expected to understand that the presence of a wedding party made my expectation of a good night’s sleep a very low priority, take it or leave itFurther, I find it extremely surprising that the hotel would allow a group to take over a public room of the hotel, in full sight of the front desk, to consume alcohol brought in from an outside source Certainly, if was the same kids that ended up partying on the 3rd floor, they didn’t look old enought to legally consume alcohol Then again, at 2:30 in the morning, I was seeing red and not checking ID’sA sincere apology from the front desk would have really been appreciated Instead, there was no sense of concern whatsoever Either the product of apathy or lack of professional training, I’m not sure which

My fiancé & 2 1/2 year old son & I stayed here for 3 nights & 4 days & we had an AMAZING time! Our son absolutely loved the pool & the scenery is so beautiful! The hotel is literally on top of a mountain & is so gorgeous! You can literally see for miles! Two employees that had a huge impact on us were Deidre & Jill They seriously went above & beyond for us everyday & were so kind & courteous! They really helped make our stay feel like home & we can’t thank them enough for that!! We cannot wait to come back!!! If you are looking for a fun place to stay & make memories with your family Courtyard Marriott Montage Mountain is the place to go!!!!

The staff was extremely accommodating and friendly They meet every need and solved every concern The lobby and rooms were nicely decorated and very clean

The pool and spa were comfortably heated The hotel is conveniently located close to shopping, movies, water park (ski resort), the Lackawanna Coal Mines and Steamtown where you can tour the museums and take a train ride

Very unfortunate because I’ve stayed at Courtyard’s numerous times with no issue Arrived after midnight due to travel and was told our King room wasn’t available but there was a Double room Elevator wasn’t working but made it to third floor and opened the door to find someone in the room

After speaking with another Marriott employee it was expressed that this is a known issue and the staff unfortunately doesn’t receive adequate training and the systems are outdated I would save yourself any potential headache and stay at any other hotel at Montage (the Fairfield was great and very accommodating for our almost 3AM check-in) Front desk staff is at a disadvantage due to poor management, I’d rather give my business to a management staff that cares about their employeesUpdate: Assistant General Manager called me within a day of my review and expressed her utmost apologies and that the hotel is going through management changes (she’s new within the past month) She was very genuine and made this unfortunate event right Willing to give them another try next time I’m in town

For me personally this place sits a bit below average, but it might be the best we can hope for in this area The biggest issue was the loud air conditioner which would come on like a piece of industrial machinery intermittently throughout the night (the alternative was turning it off and roasting) The AC also emitted a bit of a musty smell, but that’s to be expected in budget hotels

The room also had a bit of a spunky odor which was barely concealed under a GENEROUS application of air freshener Carpet and couch are dingy Bathroom is clean and the shower is nice but WATCH YOUR HEAD if you are 6′ or taller! I clipped the top of my head really good on the low door frame (drew some blood!)Get a mountain view room if you can It’s only a few $ more and the view is nice to wake up to The included breakfast is actually decent–just get there early to avoid crowds and low supplies The large suite-style rooms are of course nice to have The staff are all very friendly except for maybe one lady who just stared at me eerily while I checked in 😐For me, I think I’ll try to find something else for my next visit The loud AC is sort of a deal breaker (I need my sleep!)

5/5 stars for the Home2 Suites in Dickson City (Scranton, PA) Check in was super easy The receptionist, Katie, had everything ready for us

I loved that it was clean, quiet, and had an awesome viewFresh, hot coffee was available anytime I wanted itPlenty of restaurants and stores surrounding this hotel makes it a good location

Keith Watson

Arrived and was meet by friendly and professional staff She was very helpful with getting things worked out and me off to my room The parking lot is a bit small and can be a long wait to be able to exit with only one entrance

Also the pool and spa are out of service with no repair date listed The Mnt views, are very subjective Yes you can see some mountains in the distance But more in veiw are the commercial roof tops

pet friendly!!! very nice place spacious, clean, kitchen with stove top, microwave, refrigerator, King bed – very much like a studio apartment location is weird – gotta drive almost all the way around a mall to get to it

parking is right in front of the place and numerous spaces great place to stay I’m usually a Hilton chain person but I’m swayed now

So to preface, we booked this hotel with the knowledge that it would be 100% occupied due to a festival in the area I booked our stay 5 months ago I’m a Marriott rewards member and ALWAYS request a quiet room away from the elevators and other high traffic points due to my sleep challenges

I even went so far to call the hotel 3 days before my arrival to reiterate the request Needless to say, they put me in a room right above the air condenser to the main lobby which buzzed all night and couldn’t move me to another location because they were sold out The room was initially only provided with 2 bath towels (we were 4 in the room) so I had to ask for more, and had to “wait” for housekeeping to finish laundry I also had to ask for bedding and linens for the pull-out sofa that should have been stored in the closet The toilet got stopped up at 2am and the phone in the room didn’t work so I had to call the front desk with my cellphone to request assistance At breakfast, which goes until 9:30, they ran out of the hot meal option before 9:00 and wouldn’t make more (so what’s the point of it being “included”)? I’ve stayed at many Residence Inns throughout the country (and even stayed here 3 years ago) and this was by far the worst I’ve experienced for this quality of hotel (at $399/night) The manager did adjust my rate as a courtesy, but I will have to rethink staying here again if I ever return to Scranton

We were in town to meet with family under unfortunate circumstances The amount of help we received from the employees here was the greatest Erin sent us to a beautiful family owned restaurant which we enjoyed immensely

She also showed us so much compassion and we really felt that Thank youMicheal was a kind young man and kept us laughing Cozy place made us all feel welcome

Our room was quiet, comfortable, tastefully decorated and lighted, and spotlessly clean Everyone was so helpful and kind But this was no ordinary perfect hotel! The opulent beauty of the old train station was evident in every area of the hotel

The stained glass, the tile mosaics, the fountains and woodwork – all make this a fantastic experience that we would love to come back again to And the food offered at Carmen’s and Trax was also excellent! I wish I could give more than 5 stars!

Joshua Clink

It is all about expectations When I first got here I felt disappointed but when I looked back on the information about the hotel, I realize I was expecting the hotel to be something its not There are not a lot of amenities but they embrace being a simple hotel done well

All the staff is friendly and helpful I never tried Carmen’s but it looks nice and the menu is easy to find Trax was good and had convenient hours The location is extremely convenient, walking distance to the mall and most of downtown And it is right at the entrance to the highway It is a beautiful and historic structure that is well cleaned

Looks good in the photos but needs renovation Our room smelled very bad, like chlorine, as well as the corridor and the elevator The windows do not open in our room and it was difficult to get rid of the smell by using air ventilation, but in a few hours it got better

Also, they charged us +70 dollars for a dog for one night, but there was nothing for the dog in there, neither dog bed or bowls or at least treats, nothingThe place has parking and the room is large, the bed is large and comfortable Apart from the chlorine smell, it was quite clean It has amenities like a tea machine, towels and self hygiene amenities (shower gel, shampoo, ), but they do not smell goodOverall it was OK for one night, I would come back again if not the chlorine smell
