Getting there
Somewhat walkable
Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travelers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
Room was clean, quiet and comfortable. Breakfast was minimal (mostly cold offerings), and utensils and tableware go into the trash (no recycling).
Staff were exceptionally friendly. Michael, the desk clerk, was very personable and helpful.

Exceptional value for the $. Cleaning staff attention to detail was beyond hotels I've stayed at that charge 2x, or more. The cost per night was under $100 so my expectations were low; and it's an old building that changed hands from quality inn to Days Inn. But, staff were efficient at check in. No hassle when I had to check out early. Adequate parking. Well lit. Breakfast met expectations - coffee, toasted bagel, yogurt, OJ. Don't expect fresh fruit w/steak & eggs or greens galore - it's not that kind of service. But, the waffle maker was going strong. Would recommend. Will stay again.

Not much to say here, and can't believe I'm going 5-stars for a Quality Inn, but I really had no complaints after staying here on a Friday evening during the State College Arts Festival. In fact, I must say the king sized bed was one of the most comfortable hotel beds I've ever slept in. I still don't know why hotels don't provide king size pillows for a king size bed (that really irks me), but a quite comfortable bed nonetheless. And, if you're interested in drinking downtown, the Lyft/Uber fare was < $10. Nice. We actually overslept into Saturday morning, but the friendly front desk gent allowed us a late check-out - perfect. I'd probably stay here again, considering it's one of the more affordable properties in town.

Thank you for your feedback. We replaced our beds in March of 2020, so they are brand new! We have heard many times that we are the BEST Quality Inn that someone has stayed at. We hope to see you again this year for the annual Festival of the Arts.

We did a quick overnight trip to PSU and enjoyed our stay at this Quality Inn. The rooms were nice and appeared to be newly remodeled. I made our reservation with the hotel directly and Samantha at the front desk was very friendly, patient, and helpful. When asked, she even suggested a great place for dinner (Otto’s Pub and Brewery), which I highly recommend and wrote a review for as well. When we arrived, Michael was also very friendly and helpful. The included breakfast was varied and plentiful. There was fresh coffee and tea available all day/night and a refrigerator in the room, which were nice and unexpected amenities.

This was our first time staying at the Days Inn by Wyndham Penn State. We chose them because of their location and because they allowed me to use my Wyndham points during a football weekend (not all Wyndhams do). The staff was incredibly pleasant and helpful. The rooms were basic but very clean. The bathroom was small but clean, and water pressure was great. Bottled water and snacks were provided in our room, which was a nice touch! The included breakfast was good and they have a waffle machine. Despite the hotel being full due to the football game, it was quiet and I slept really well (those Wyndham pillows are the best!).

Stayed here when moving my daughter into her apartment for her last year at PSU. Hotel is close to shopping and restaurants. Nice, spacious, clean room. Bathroom was a bit strange in shape and layout but got the job done. A refrigerator but no microwave. Could have been rated higher but there was no maid service, so downgraded. I did see maids servicing some rooms, but I guess that was just those being prepped for new arrivals.
Also had WiFi issues - the network disappeared so I called the front desk to see what was happening. They had no clue - tried to tell me the name of the network, etc. I knew that, was on a little while earlier, but the network was gone. It was out for hours.

The room was dirty. A used washcloth was left draped on the shower rod, and the toilet had other people's hair in the rim and on the seat. I was surprised by this lack of attention to basic hospitality details, as I've stayed at the hotel before. It's difficult to imagine this business surviving with so many other hotels in State College offering clean accommodatons.

Michael, I disappointed to hear we did not exceed your expectations. I will most definitely be speaking with my executive housekeeper about the issues you had in your bathroom. Since you stated you have stayed with us before, you know this is not the way we do business. We hope to see you again soon so we can exceed your expectations.
