Good stay
The room worked for well for my purposes. It was easy to get to and from Hershey and the highways. The room was clean though a little dated, especially in the bathroom. The bed was comfortable.

The property was priced effectively and the location is convenient to much. The hotel is very tired and run-down. The light didn't work in our sink area, there were visible bugs in the bathroom, and its pretty grimy overall. Smelled terrible. I hate to give a negative review, but this ones definitely only ok in a pinch. Staff was friendly once on-site.

Average stay for one night
Check in was smooth and pleasant. The location was a little odd...with the run down car wash next door.Room seemed to be recently redone and was overall clean. The sink was VERY slow to drain and the water pressure in the shower was almost non existent. This was a one night stay so it wasnt really impactful.

I cant complain a whole bunch because i was going on a budget with not being there other than to sleep. The rooms don't have carpeting. The love seat in our room was so stained i wouldn't go near it. Whatever got used to clean the stained bed linens smelled terrible and gave me a rash. The towels were small and they only cleaned or changed the towels every 3 days for you. The toilet seat was falling off and the bathroom in general wasnt in great shape. We didnt even finish out our stay due to other multiple things at this location. The one plus side.is the two people who worked the front desk, suoer.friendly and helpful.

It was okay for the price.
It was a good location and clean upon arrival. Only thing I would suggest is service during stay. We never had anyone come in to empty the trash, change sheets, or replinish towels.

One time stay
Service desk was pleasant. Exterior of hotel was clean and average landscaping. The room itself was very worn. Appeared as if it wasn't cleaned. Bedding did not smell fresh and cover was stained. Floor had cracks in it. Air conditioner barely kept the room cool and filter was visually dirty.

Decent for price
Decent room at a decent price! Room was prettyclean but extremely outdated, bed was comfy but old, floor clean in outer areas but dusty and crumbs behind bedframe and nightstands! Shower and bathroom were clean but there is definitely needs updating , had last room on 1st floor took 5 min for water to get HOT but when it did look out was scalding! Overall was decent but looks like last update was late 90s early 2000s, if looking for decent place for a couple nights at good price this is the spot easy access to shopping and highway from here!

Budget friendly for only staying at the hotel for sleeping. The overall condition of the hotel is what you pay for, recommend only staying if you cant afford anywhere else. Good for a national guard/reservists to stay overnight, instead of the barracks. 5/5 for cost, 2/5 for condition, 3/5 for smell, 3/5 for parking, 1/5 for surrounding area. Will stay again due to budget friendly.

Warning do not book at this hotel
I booked a room for after prom at this Econo Lodge. Before I left for prom I checked in they gave me a hard time about my age which I’m 18 and been 18 since October of 2023, the check in age is 18. The second thing is after leaving and coming back one of the employees followed me to my room asking me if I had a room there and what was my number for the room. The biggest thing is me and my gf room tried to get broken into and while this was happening the man at the front desk was knocked out cold sleep in a chair. So me and my gf decided to leave because we felt unsafe. I came back the later that day because we left at 3 am due to us going bowling and hanging out with our friends. I asked for a refund the same guy that was sleep refused to give me my refund because I didn’t wake him up when it happened. Which I shouldn’t have to wake you up you should be doing your job. So wouldn’t recommend staying here also the room quality isn’t the best.
