Guest Reviews
- Rosemary (10/5): - The room was clean. The beds were very comfortable. It was quiet. Dogs were allowed. Will stay here again.
- Rachel (10/5): - Clean room, friendly and helpful staff, well lit parking area. Walking distance to restaurants and quick stop store.
- John (8/5): - Staff Were Very Helpful and Pleasant. Accommodating. Great Job.
- Karen (10/5): - The housekeeper came to reset our TV. It was the first time I've met my housekeeper. She was so friendly and asked if she could do anything else. She asked if the room was ok because she had she had cleaned it. I liked knowing my housekeeper.
- Pam (10/5): - So helpful very nice
- Gary (10/5): - Room very clean big tv very pleasant check in
- Robert (4/5): Snarky owners - While our arrival was nice and the owner was friendly and courteous we left not feeling that way. We are traveling across the country and needed a good nights sleep. We listened to a remodeling project going on until 9:45 pm directly in front of our room. When I called the desk and complained they came right away and had them stop. We decided to check out the next morning and cut our stay short due to the noise not being sure it would not happen again the next day. Also while checking out there was a big at the door I’m pretty certain it was a roach but of course they called it a beatle. When hotels.com called to refund our unused nights stay they were snarky and would not honor the credit. I guess they needed the money that badly. Town is basically abandoned. There was however a very good restaurant Morellos. They have a vast menu and very good food.
- Gary (10/5): - Very convenient for our trip
- John (8/5): - Nice place. The staff is friendly, but no one is available at the front desk before 9. The breakfast is what you’d expect; cereal, fruit, tea, coffee, toast and bagels. The room has a refrigerator, which was convenient, but I had to defrost the freezer so I could re-freeze the ice packs for my cooler. Several restaurants within walking distance, including a pizza place across the street and Morello’s two blocks away. Short drive to chain restaurants.
- Cynthia (8/5): - Great staff, though the bathroom door could be cleaner.
- Cynthia (8/5): - Staff was kind and prompt
- Chris (10/5): - It's quiet
- Pamela (10/5): - New owners! The room I had was spotless and in great condition. I was surprised, I've stayed in the Quality inn and super 8 in Harrisburg, this room was hands down better! Nice couple bought it, very hospitable and super friendly!
- David (8/5): - The room was great! The Staff was terrible! I asked the manager if he could ask his wife to stop calling me "honey" and he made an unbelievable issue out of this! I am going through a divorce and I made him aware of this and asked him to ask his wife to stop calling ne "honey"! And he made an unbelievable issue out of this! Obviously, they are not very educated and do not understand why this might be offensive. "I would NOT RECOMMEND this hotel" under any circumstances!!!
- Chris (10/5): - I enjoy the clean rooms, the front desk were friendly n helpful
- Arteska (10/5): - Yes
- Arteska (10/5): - Nice room, comfortable beds, good shower, but bathroom can be bigger.
- Brenda (4/5): Not a good experience - Got to the motel at approximately 8:30 pm. The room was not ready and they did not even know if they had the room we paid for. I was told the website was selling more rooms than they had available. After a lengthy wait we were given the card key to the room but were told there were no towels in the room. Someone would bring them in about an hour. 90 minutes later, I called the front office to get them. After a long day, we were looking forward to a shower and sleep. The hairdryer did not work. Had to call to get a working hairdryer. Picked up the phone to call the front office and the cord for the receiver popped right out of the phone. I had to hold it in to make the call. At that, the call was cut off because it would not keep a connection. The room was clean. No coffee. They did give us to complimentary waters.
- LA (10/5): - Supergreat!
- LA (10/5): - Front desk clerk was bery nice!
- Olivier (2/5): - All the proposed rooms were smelling cigarette, even the one that were supposed to be non smoking.
The bed cover were stained and looks dirty.
- Braxton (10/5): - Very nice
- Brandt (6/5): - No hairdryer. Tv network quit working.
- Jim (8/5): - Rooms have been rentivated. Worth the money. Just stayed 1 nite. Bed was hard as a rock but all else was good
- Jaime (8/5): - The renovated rooms were very nice!
- Goma (6/5): - There were some homeless peoppe and beggers around the area. Room was c9nfortable. Bed was scratchy
- Cynthia (8/5): - The couple who owns it were very welcoming and check in was smooth. We could tell that they have made a lot of upgrades/renovation and everything was clean. The only complaint was the air-conditioning struggled to keep the room very cool even at max all night. To be fair the heat index was over 100° during the day!
- Angela (6/5): - The bed had no mattress covers the shower was moldy and had no handicap bars, no slip stickers and the tub was slippery
No coffee pot in room and microwave did not work well
- Terri (6/5): - Nice staff and service. Both chairs were filthy, and bedspread not clean, left no place to sit.
- Cheryl (10/5): - The staff was awesome. The room nice and clean But you guys could work on what the outside looks like All and all it was a great stay. Would stay again
- Scott (2/5): - Door key did not work, ran out of toilet paper because they do not leave an extra roll in the bathroom. Went downstairs to the office and they didn’t have one. Soap was a broken pkg of pieces of soap, no tissues . Bathtub was very slippery (dangerous) but over all room was clean
- Patricia (4/5): Don't stay here - started out seeing a mouse just outside the check in area should of known then to go somewhere else. There were bugs in the room mostly dead ones so housecleaning needs to look closer than they did to clean the room. Live roach at one point major yuck! Towels were small and cheap for sure. Left to go out half the day came back to the fact they came in to turn down the beds with all our stuff in the room plus they opened the drapes half way as this is there signal to finish cleaing something else in the room. Was not happy that people walking by could see we had things out in our room not a good idea plus they took the towels and had not replaced them! Manager said we should of put the sign out on our doors Well there wasn't a sign to do that! So gave us one too late at that point! Would not stay here again --- just a Motel if you want one of those to stay at NO THANK YOU!
- David (10/5): - It was all good except the hotel manager said he would possibly give me an adjustment on the price when I told him I could be a regular customer. Then when I
- Aaron (2/5): - A cockroach appeared in the shower. Washed it down the drain but it kept returning. Found a second (dead) roach on the floor next to the bed. When we used all the bath towels on the second day of our stay, received one more towel from the front desk but only after considerable back and forth with staff reluctant to provide it (we were expected to keep using the same towels).
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Short stay/ just visiting family in this area. Had best reviews for cleanliness when I looked it up.
It is an older hotel but it is very tidy & clean (no weird odors). Excellent staff.
- Zach (4/5): Target practice - Better than being homeless, however the roaches were just target practice. Other than that the slots were down majority of the time kinda a bummer. Not a horrible experience though lol
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Nice people , recently acquired and trying to get things going, unfortunately not yet approved for breakfast, also we had 2 live roaches in the bathroom, needs a little more work
Harrisburg has several places to eat and a Walmart so good potential stop for a road trip
- Debbie (10/5): - I

- Michael (10/5): - Great location
- Michael (10/5): - Clean room, could be quieter
- Joe (6/5): - Seems to be a lot of sketchy looking people hanging around. Not sure why the police showed up at about 8:30pm but that didn’t feel right. We ended up driving to a hiking trail and stayed in our van and just used the room to hang out in the heat and take a shower.
- Zarek (10/5): - Echo and the male staff member at the service desk were really nice and polite! The room was very clean and the location of the place in Harrisburg is great! If you’re going to Shawnee, consider this place to stay.
- Vernon (8/5): - Check in was pleasant. Friendly reception is an exception now days,
- John (10/5): - This place exceeded our expectations. The staff were friendly and checked the room for cleanliness prior to us settling in. They brought fresh towels each day. The king bed was super comfortable. The location was excellent. A short drive to Aldi, restaurants, and cvs. Short walk to all your espresso needs at Steam Cafe.

- jasan (10/5): Great stay - Great service and comfortable room
- Brenda (8/5): - The only thing i have complain about is the parking lot is a little rough and the beds are hard.
- Anthony (2/5): - Room was littered with trash from previous tenants. Bed was dirty and towels were dirty as well. Shouldn’t be allowed to be selling dirty rooms
- Bruce (6/5): - This is an old hotel with the entrance doors facing the parking lot. The hotel room was clean but room amenities were dated. There aren't many choices for hotels in this town.
