Dana Halkowski

Very comfortable, extremely clean and quiet The host was friendly and gracious We had a room on the second floor

These second floor rooms have a very high vaulted ceiling, making it feel airy and roomy There are windows on both sides of the room-one set looks out on a residential neighborhood, but because you are on the second floor, you are not looking directly into anyone’s house There are also windows on the hallway side, but they are near the top of the vaulted ceiling so you can keep the curtains open for light without having other guests look into your roomThe room is extremely quiet The night we were there, every room was filled, but we did not hear any sounds from the other rooms or the hallwayAbsolutely best value in State College! We paid nearly three times as much for a room at a different hotel on our last visit The Roadway Inn beats that one for cleanliness, comfort and staff friendliness

Thomas Price

I stayed at this location on a prior occasion It is a very nice motel Clean and a good location

We were attending Nita-Nee KC Dog show in the area and stayed 1 night We were so pleased with the accommodations The views were so pretty and the room was very clean

We had a late dinner and night cap in the Restaurant/Bar which was on the same floor as our room That was cool In the morning we were treated to a complimentary breakfast that was above and beyond The staff was very sweet all around! We hope to go back next summer! Thank you!

Walt & Helen Knerr

We spent 10 days at the Wyndham Garden State College while our home was being repaired The hotel is beautiful and in a great location But, the best things about our stay were the staff and the food

The breakfast buffet was delicious and varied, the restaurant’s food was excellent and the wait staff was even better The manager, housekeeping staff, and the front desk staff were friendly and very helpful and always took a moment to make us feel at home I would recommend this hotel to everyone It was a great value for our money

Brandon Dean

Great for golfing and nice hotel They clean the rooms once per 3 night stay, so if you stay three nights, you do not get the room cleaned until checkout The room I stayed in had a large shower, no doorway/curtain so the bathroom floor was fairly wet

Nice breakfast till 930am Dinner restaurant closes kinda early, food service stopped around 9pm, last call around 10pmClean place

Phoned Leek25 (Redstone Works)

High quality spacious rooms with very comfy beds, and good bathroom area Wifi is a bit wacky (sometimes lags for no reason randomly + small bandwidth) The “free breakfast” is literally just a cheese & egg sandwich home made by then and it is of bad quality

Like I would eat their sandwich only if I had $5 to my name Location of hotel is very convenient with many convenience stores and food areas located all around Overall it’s a good hotel Though I think you could find easily better/cheaper alternatives I had to pick this one because it’s one of the rare few that accept 18 year olds (literally 2 in state college)

Thompson JT

It’s an ok hotel as an option if you need to be in the Penn State area It’s only 10 minutes from the campus It’s relatively clean for it’s price and brand

Some baby brown ants in the room and the bathroom HVAC vent looked like it needed to be vacuumed badly The amenities were nice in the room and the Continental breakfast was more than adequate and had the typical Belgian waffle do it yourself stuff I love that

Maribeth Garcia

Wow! What a gem! We are so fortunate to have stumbled upon Nancy’s beautiful home It was the perfect stay for our family/girls weekend The accommodations were exactly what we needed

Lots of space and privacy The beds and sheets were very comfortable! Everything was very clean We loved the spectacular gardens and sitting on the quiet porch We are so appreciative of Nancy and her hospitality We can’t wait to come back

Mima Gonzalez

My fiance surprised me for a romantic night It is a lovely home filled with beauty Nancy is very hospitable

However, it ended up not being a romantic stay because the room above us had a child that kept us up from 2:30 – 3:30 am then again at 6 am Also, when we returned from dinner there was dog poop near the downstairs fireplace and table for two where we had waffles for breakfast the next morning Unfortunately our experience wasn’t as good as others!

Tom Bovo

Recently stayed there on a trip across Pennsylvania, and then again on the way back It was clean, comfortable, relaxing, unique, and friendly, in a town that can only be described as clean, comfortable, relaxing, and friendly The Queen is a welcome step up from a chain, and they were dog friendly, so our 1 year old Brittany was welcomed

The other guests were part of the charm, and I highly recommend having breakfast in the garden

Paula Rosato

My husband and I travel quite often and this is the cleanest hotel we have ever stayed at Every little nook and cranny, even the spots most people wouldn’t even think to look, were so clean The staff were super friendly and the whole place is tastefully decorated and comfortable

Even the stairwells smelled good Great experience! Keep up the excellent work!!

Cybil Snarf

My stay on Friday, February 25th was much more unsatisfactory than the previous nights stay I was given a room on the first floor, it was extremely noisy, the shower head needs replaced, water did not flow properly The room had a damp feeling, and it had an unpleasant odor

The breakfast was absolutely awful Muffins are all you can spare to give people for breakfast????Shame on you You could have fresh fruit, and other breakfast products that would not break the bank!!! Coffee was good My 3rd floor room the previous night was a completely different experience I was comfortable, it was quiet, no smell I never expected the second night to be anything less than I had experienced the the night before

Dayan Escobar

The smell of the entire place was degustingThe bathroom wasn’t clean They didn’t even changed the toilet paper from the people that was previously there

The place was very noisy I could hear people having sex during quiet hoursThe staff members were not very friendlyThe only good thing was the location Otherwise I would give this hotel 1 start

Beulah White

We stayed at the hotel

8 months ago I never left a view Great service I needed a place to stay the night before my surgery See we live a hour away so this helped us out very much We were given a breakfast bag due to the breakfast bar was closed A huge shout out the the group of ladies in the meeting room, sewing there hearts out on those sewing machines Very friendly Also great my PS4 hooked right up to the TV We will be back Thanks

The Lodge is very neat and clean! Our lake facing room on the second floor was nicely laid out, very clean and made me feel comfortableThe staff are very pleasant, helpful and friendlyBreakfast was very good

Dinner had to be ordered in advance and came as a boxed meal I believe that changes after April 24 Our dinners were excellent

Courtney Renae Films

I filmed a wedding at this venue and it was lovely! Kashia and the staff were all amazing and helpful and the grounds are amazing and well kept! You truly cannot beat the view that the nature inn provides of the mountains and lake Truly incredible I also hosted my sisters baby shower here and it was the perfect venue for it! Highly recommend to all future couples looking for a wedding/event venue!

Kate M

This is a gem for families They welcomed us with crayons and coloring sheets There is a common area with other nature-oriented books and games for children

And the trails that originate from the inn were perfect for nature walks for little legsThe room was very comfortable and meticulously clean with gorgeous views, including bird watching from the balcony The hearty breakfast fueled us for long days enjoying the outdoors The wide patio and firepit seating were perfect for relaxing with coffee each morning and eveningMy only wish would be for brighter lights in the bathroom But that is a very small issue and didn’t detract from the magic we felt during our stayWe love the Nature Inn and will be visiting again

Daniel McCormick

Great place, staff is friendly and really accommodating, location was ideal for attending events on Penn State campus Four stars because the rooms were noisy when people were staying the floor above you, you could hear every step and muted conversation Breakfast was really good the first morning, the second morning the eggs were a bit rubbery and the sausages were water logged and cool

All in all I would certainly return for the price and experience weren’t that bad at all Pool was lovely and the gym was nice, patio was beautiful to take in the air and grill this time of year!

Gregory Jones Sr

The hotel was clean but the room and location left a lot to be desired The room layout was strange where the TV was located on the side wall making it awkward to watch The worst physical issues were with the bathroom

The faucet was too small for the sink which caused the water stream to be only a half inch from the side if the sink Forget about putting your hands or toothbrush under the faucet without contacting the wall of the sink If you needed to use the commode, the toilet paper holder was a good 2 1/2 feet away! Better hope you have long arms They did have a decent breakfast arrangement situated next to a grave yard kept the noise level down but also put the location away from any store or general shopping except for a Sheetz station It is located a short distance off 99 so there is easy access The only general seating is in the breakfast area consisting of just tables and chairs so no comfortable seating for socializing

Andrew Bizyaev

This place is the best hotel in the area BY FAR! I’ve been to all of the local hotels; country Inn, Hampton Inn, and this place is the best deal Don’t bother with western they have the worst rates and staff of all, Hampton is also good, but this place has the best rates, the absolute BEST staff, Kevin is an amazing hotel manager and Cristina is the best receptionist I’ve spoken too Spend your vacation here, it’s a living dream 🙂

Very nice hotel Pool, hot tub, and working on-site restaurant We had a king bed room with whirlpool tub

The room was kind of small (for us) but nicely appointedThe bed was very comfortable but the pillows were very ‘loose’ and had that crinkling sound whenever you would move I wished I Had remembered to bring my own from homeBathroom was nice, clean, and had a selection of shampoos, soap, conditioners, etc We had the whirlpool tub Those are great after a long drive! The tub worked fine but the water pressure was low so it did take a while to fill to the proper level Only wished they had left us more towels rather than the 2 we had

Bre Reane

Had a 2 night stay, did early check in Staff was very friendly, room and pool area was clean Bed was comfortable but the pillows left much to be desired

We got a room with the whirlpool tub but unfortunately it did not work When I made staff aware, maintenance was right on it but unfortunately, they were waiting on parts so, theres that Also, breakfast is not complimentary, buffet was available for purchase While I enjoyed the stay overall, the price just is too much for me to want to stay again

We have stayed in many B&B’s over the years to celebrate our anniversary This was by far one of the nicest The mansion is on the National register of Historic places and has been in existence since 1886

The building has been very well maintained and is beautiful inside and out We were greeted by our hostess Tricia and given a tour and brief explanation of the mansion We selected the Green room for our stay and were glad we did It was large, clean, decorated nicely, and comfortable They had recently installed a large jetted tub that was so awesome Even my over 6ft husband fit comfortably, which never happens Our 3 course breakfast prepared by our host Mike was delicious and enjoyed in a pretty dining room A great start to our day I highly recommend you stay here and you will be well taken care of by the friendly innkeepers Tricia and Mike

Mike Mann

What an amazing place The mansion is incredible inside and out We stayed in the Penn State room and it was decorated with a lot of Penn State memorabilia

Very spacious room with a whirlpool bath and a very comfortable bed Mike and Tricia are amazing hosts They make you feel comfortable from the moment you enter and will do anything to make your stay great The breakfasts were delicious and the service was top- notch We’ve stayed in a lot of B&Bs but our stay at the Reynolds Mansion was by far the best! We highly recommend it and we can’t wait to go back!

David Kingsley

First time ever at a B&B Our visit to the Reynolds Mansion was a wonderful experience It was great to learn about the mansion from our hosts, and very nice conversing with the other guests

The area was perfect for walking around and relaxation The gourmet breakfasts were delicious Tricia and Mike were wonderful hosts We plan to return in the future! Very highly recommend

Stayed here with my crew (I’m a photographer) last weekend The whole day occurred at the venue, from the morning through to the ceremony and the event It went great

Was very convenient for everything to be in one place with the space to host it all with room to spareThe room was nice and had a pullout couch, too, which was greatWould definitely recommend The Penn Stater to anyone looking to host an event or wedding in the areaWill come back to this review to post pics!

Christopher Jones

Everyone from the front desk staff to the servers to housekeepers were very friendly The fastest hotel elevators I’ve ever been in My 2 queen bed room was very clean and very cozy with a very comfortable bed

little bonus- I was on the 4th floor and there was a great view of the horizon over the trees the only petty gripe I have is that the bathroom was small The hotel has 2 restaurants, The Pub and The Garden Breakfast at the garden was standard breakfast, I didn’t get a chance to have the Sunday brunch but it looked incredible The Pub has a nice assortment of salads and sandwiches I had the Caesar and House Steak salad and both were great They are known for their Reuben and there is a good reason for it it was incredible! The crispy coated french fries were great also You will not leave there hungry, i guarantee it The fitness center has a nice little variety of machines with some weights Nothing exciting but totally gets the job done The pool area looked clean, but I didn’t partake The campus/ downtown area and major stores are within a 5 minute drive Would stay there again for sure

JJ

I wasn’t there for a conference, just an overnight stay Staff, pub and lobby are great But, the industrial design of the early 90s interior isn’t holding up

If hospital designs are your thing, you’ll feel rejuvenated at the Penn Stater Come on! Isn’t this supposed to be Penn State? Work that junk! In the rooms, let’s see some PSU blue and white, add some nice Penn State prints to the walls, and for god’s sake, put blankets/comforters on the beds for some weight- it felt like I was sleeping under a curtain runner Check! You’ll also see that reasonably sized TVs have come down incredibly from 2005- no need for guests to fumble with binoculars So, great people, great downstairs But, upstairs it has only slightly more charm and sophistication of a local maternity ward or mental hospital Sort of weird

I’ll start with the steps The best I have seen in dozens of hotels Carpeted, well lit, clean and easy to find

I only used the elevator once upon arrival and then it was step time The room was clean and well laid out The bathroom had a fan that actually worked to quickly remove air from the toilet/ shower area The mattresses was on the firm side but not uncomfortable The pool was nice as was the fitness center The end of the pool room is glass block with plants and a fountain In the evening hours of summer the Sun may shine though the glass giving this indoor pool an outdoor feel Two notes for improvement First is the bright green LED lights behind the tv that shine in your eyes as you leave the bathroom in the middle of the night The second is the ice maker The second floor ice maker I was barely working despite my best efforts I used the maker on another floor and told the front desk The reply “We know, we are waiting on the repairs to happen” If they knew, why didn’t the put a sign on the ice machine Overall I would gladly stay here again

Rita Russell

I arrived from Colorado for a week’s visit with my daughter I came in on a delayed flight and was super tired from traveling since early that morning It may sound odd, but I stopped by the Bistro and requested a large cup of black coffee before I headed up to my room

The staff noticed there wasn’t much fresh coffee left and immediately brewed a fresh pot! It was the perfect way to end my long day Then each morning and evening, Jose Felix and his staff remembered my request and prepared my coffee for me without me having to say a wordThis excellent service continued throughout my entire trip!

JJ

Hotel staff were friendly enough and helpful They had a water leak that shut all of their systems down so had to check in the old-fashioned way That meant the TV kept turning off and turning back on thinking a new guest was checking in and out

For the hotel itself, it is certainly showing its age and badly in need of a remodel It is pretty dingy and worn out Paint missing from doors and walls Rusty door handles Musty smell in the halls and our room Everything is just very out of date and well used

Amazing hotel Great hospitality, staff was very friendly Room looked brand new and hallways smelled fresh

Beds were comfortable Breakfast was fresh, hot and tasty We were there for the weekend but decided to leave after my daughter didn’t make the team she was trying out for, they only charged me one night without me even asking, wow! Most places would have preferred to get money than my loyalty Will definitely be staying here again!

Steven Mattos

Excellent establishment Very clean and nicely decorated lobby and dining area The included breakfast was superb

Well stocked with numerous choices to chose from Items included breakfast tacos, two types of scrambled eggs, waffles, oatmeal (with the fixings), variety of cold cereals, bread, bagels, pastries, fresh fruit, and all the usual beverages Area was constantly cleaned and the entire staff was pleasant Highly recommended you consider staying at this fine establishment when visiting Penn State University

was modern and very clean Everyone was super inviting and friendly, even for a one night stay

Richard Marmorstein

Made us and our two dogs feel so welcome when we checked in, even handed us some dog biscuits! That meant a lot Some “dog-friendly” hotels make you feel like your dogs are barely tolerated, but here we felt very welcomeIt was really great to have the dishes/dishwasher/full-sized fridge

The pool was great, open until 11

Pros: Nice free breakfast setup, but they need trays to help transport food from lobby to room The staff are highly engaged and friendly with their guests (staff = 5 stars!) Pet friendly

Safety protocols to deny access to specific levels based on your room numberCons: PARKING is NOT easily accessible, nor is the cost included in the price of the hotel stay ($10/night extra) Loading/Unloading vehicle is restricted by the limited driveway space in front of the hotel Once you arrive, you must (blindly) navigate your way through the building to locate the front desk, which is upstairs! Careful crossing the busy street when coming and going to the parking garage Once in the room, we could not locate an ice machine on our room level (5th floor) The amenities were very minimal Personally, I wouldn’t be returning to this specific hotel again

We are very pleased with our recent stay at the Hyatt Place The staff was very friendly and professional from check in to check out It is perfectly located in downtown next to Penn State

The interior and rooms at this hotel are modern in design The rooms are spacious and appeared very clean There is a $10 fee added to your room to use the parking deck across the street from check in to 3pm on the check out date The Hyatt offers a good continental breakfast that last until 9:30 am We’ve stayed at several other hotels in the area and I can honestly say this one by far is top and well worth the price

Everything was terrific, super clean, spacious room, quiet, good view from the window, super nice and friendly staff people can name another thousand

But if any improvement, here’s two: 1 Parking is not free (but you get a discount of 10 bucks per night) and 2 Bathroom floor gets super slippery during shower Either offer a shower mat or redesign the floor as it’s sideling towards the drain I understand it’s helping maintain good hygiene by drying the water faster after shower, but when the floor is covered with shampoo and soap water it gets super hard to stand properly and easily slipped

We just did a golf getaway here over the weekend We saw some of the negative reviews before our trip, and we experienced NONE of this The condition of the golf course was great overall, and the resort is in a beautiful area

The hotel was fine The room was clean, beds were fine, fast internet, newer television, etc We had dinner (the specialty burgers) in the restaurant and they were great We also were treated to a buffet breakfast in the restaurant on our final morning, before enjoying another round on the super nice course (which was essentially wide open both days) Everyone at the facility (including hotel and golf course personnel, and golf club members) were super nice We’ve added this place to our “well kept secret golf escape locations” list and would go back in a heartbeat

We had our wedding at Toftrees Golf Resort and they were so organized and helpful through the entire weekend The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating A big thank you to Katie for helping us plan our wedding and staying the entire evening to make sure everything went perfectly

She has a wedding reception down to a science and was so kind to bring us food from our cocktail hour and make sure we ate first so we could go around and greet our guests Also during set up my mom raved at how wonderful Katie was to work with and get everything together Thank you for hosting our special day! All of our guests loved the weekend spent at Toftrees and said how delicious the food was all weekend too

For the price only It reminds me of the sprawling Catskills hotels where you can walk forever to find a fitness center which is poorly maintained at best and open limited hours The pool doesn’t open in the morning until 10 and closes early too

If you stay here ask early for a renovated room We’ll located with Wegmans and every other chain nearby and right off the highway Generally clean – easy free parking
