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.
