Was what I needed for the night

As a solo woman traveler, safety and cleanliness are really important. The Fallon Hotel fulfilled both -- a quiet downtown with the young family owners in residence. The bed linens and towels were immaculately white and the bed super comfortable. Also important to me is avoiding chain hotels where each one looks like the last. Travel should bring new experiences. The Fallon Hotel comes through again, a huge old building in a historic old town along the Susquehanna River. And it's a great opportunity for people who love old buildings to get a glimpse into one family's dream project (a big one ....). I think some rooms are more restored than others and the one I had still needed a few minor tweaks. But I loved the original sink and bathtub, the light fixtures, etc. I hope they continue to "lean" into and restore these special features that make for a true historic hotel experience. I'll definitely stay there again.

We thought we had booked the room for the night of our arrival but found out we were off by a day. Called the check in number and was helped by a very understanding person who made it possible to stay that night. After a long day of traveling this was a wonderful outcome. Room was clean and plenty of towels to go around.

I sent an email regrading the slow drain in the bath tub but never got a response.

Positives: The staff are excellent. Jayden was extremely hospitable, he let me see the room right before I booked, he was friendly, he showed me all the amenities like the coffee area, when I had an issue with the shower backing up in the room I was in, he immediately came and moved me into another room next-door that was nicer, they accommodated at noon check out. The staff are great, 5 stars. Location: Excellent, on the main drag, but isn’t loud. Room: No smoking doesn’t smell like smoke even with smoking rooms available. Every room has its own separate AC (I did not use heat/AC because the temperature is fine here) The water even though it takes a good six minutes to get through the pipes is actually very hot. Negatives: Cleanliness: It’s just not clean by most standards. The sink had hair in it, the tub had hair, the carpet does not look like it has been vacuumed, no dusting. Maintenance: keeping things unplugged is frustrating bc having to move furniture to plug the refrigerator back in. I had to switch between the refrigerator and the microwave overall it’s a little rundown most egregiously is the tub. To the owner: with this location, this property should be full. Budget travelers need two things: clean and safe. If the rooms felt clean and were brighter (dim looks dingey) and you lower the price to $65/night it would stay full. Hire a cleaning consultant. Quit doing coffee and soap and all that keep it basic. Thanks for the stay.
