Nice hotel for visiting Penn State
The hotel was nice, but it was out from any restaurants and night life. The hotel was great that it didn’t require a 2 night stay, but was very expensive. Also for paying about $1000 a night and not having breakfast included was not great. In the morning, the water and the coffee was out. The shuttle service to the game was very convenient. The rooms were very spacious and quiet. The bathroom was large.

Room was spacious and clean. Food from restaurant was excellent although we had to get takeout because they were no longer seating guests but people who came after us who were pushy got seated. Water in shower only got to lukewarm not hot. Perfect location for football games as we did not wait in any traffic, was easy to get to, and close. Overall would stay again.
