This is a motel, not a hotel. But it is very clean, the staff are very friendly, it felt very safe (and it was completely booked for our visit), and the location is excellent in State College. The only thing that bothered me was the bed was harder than I like, but that is all personal preference. Others in our party of eight said that they really liked the beds.

Check in and out was a breeze. Coffee in the lobby was available. Good parking. The room was not the cleanest. The atmosphere was lacking. Holes in the curtains. TV went out for awhile.

The check in was easy and staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel is very close to the PSU campus and a very easy drive. The rooms are a little dated, but they are very clean and well maintained. Restaurants are within walking distance, with one right next door, and a number more within 2 miles. For being on a busy street, the room was very quite. Adjustments to the heat were simple, unlike some newer hotels. The hotel is also within a half mile of a nice walking trail and bike trail. Both seemed to be well used by runners and walkers. I enjoyed the stay.

Nice, cute place! A great place to stay for cheap without compromising on cleanliness. Did not partake in provided breakfast, but location is great for Penn State campus, less than 10min by car. Lots of places to get food nearby as well.

Conveniently located in the heart of Penn State, this mom and pop motel gives Rosebud Motel vibes in all the best ways. Front desk was pleasant and informative. Rooms are keyed with code locks for security. New flooring and bathroom amenities bring an older establishment a more modern feel. Beds are comfortable, and I’m pretty sure the pillows were shredded memory foam- we slept well. Blackout curtains on both windows made for a cozy retreat, and the big screen tv was a hit with my kiddo. Everything was clean, Clean, CLEAN, and the bath towels were so much better than most hotels- thick and comfy. Highly recommend!

Okay room. Very poor internet connection. Smallest shower I have ever been in state side. Typical motel that you might see in the desert. My stay was okay.

This is a family run motel. The rooms are dated and maybe even a bit mildewy smelling. But it is safe, convenient and I have really grown to like it : ) Level set your expectations and enjoy this little gem!
