“Couldn't have asked for a better stay!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 27, 2013

I had the most absolutely wonderful weekend! My husband and I had plans with my newlywed cousin and her husband for the weekend which included the Bon Jovi concert at the Bryce Jordan Center. The location of this hotel could not have been more perfect!!! We were so close to the venue and the hotel was completely sold out. The gentleman checking us in gave us a run-down of what was going on in the area for the weekend which was very helpful. The morning we were checking out, the breakfast area was packed. I had thought we would have to wait, but then I saw that they had opened a meeting room for extra breakfast space! As a frequent traveler, I was impressed! Way to go!!! You definitely have my business!!! I believe credit should be given where credit is due: Janette made our reservations and was very pleasant. In speaking with Melissa on the day we were to arrive, she made sure that everything was set for us. With making a 3 hour drive, that was a comforting reassurance. We had the chance to speak with David when we were checking out. It is good to know that there are still people who know what customer service is and do it well!

“Lack of sleep”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed February 25, 2013

Hotel staff was very nice, room was clean, good sized. Bed was hard, slightly better than sleeping on floor. Hotel construction not very good...window does not seal well wind blew all night, every time someone talked as they walked the halls, woke us up, love hearing the next room over flush there toilet first thing in the morning. Thermostats is as soon as you walk in rather than near the bed, so it was colder at bed at night with wind blowing in. In front of the toilet there is a drain which lets cold air inane bathroom, just what you want sitting on the toilet, a cold breeze between your legs. We chose the hotel due to the good reviews and that they listed pillow top beds, thought it would be a win, win. Disappointed. Won't stay there again. My husband who never complains, says we should of left at 2 am when we couldn't sleep.

Room Tip: If you like hard beds this is a great hotel.

“What Happened to this Hotel”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed February 17, 2013

We have stayed at this hotel several times in the past and was pleased but this stay was terrible. Our room was not cleaned during our stay (3 days) We contacted the front desk manager and they could not tell us why our room was not cleaned. Bed not made, anything. (Basically suck it up attitude) We were not in our room all day during our stay so this could not be used as an excuse for no service. They did give us fresh towels after our complaint. Other noted issues, shower water pressure is really bad, noisy, walls must be thin.

We are very sorry to hear about this experience with us. We have spoke to housekeeping to figure out how your room was missed and make sure that we do not make the same mistakes moving forward. We also had our chief engineer fix the shower issue that you encountered in your room. We hope that you will try using us again in the future due to the fact that you had positive experiences previous to this and give us another chance. Thank you for your review to help us improve.

“Best in class”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 27, 2013

Excellent in every meaningful category: location, staff, property appearance, cleanliness, breakfast. What more could you want in this price category? BW has really stepped up its game lately, and this hotel is the most recent proof of that.
