It was wonderful and very reasonably priced. The bed & all 5 pillows were very comfortable. The pillows were very well protected from smells too.
Our sink filled up very quickly and drained very slowly plus the aerator was a bit corroded so water kept spraying out of it. Also the room smelled like previous smokers had been in there.

The location was good. The bed was comfortable, which was the most important! No insects! The breakfast was minimal but fresh. Had never had it put in a box to the room before.
The 2 chairs had stains and the room smelled of human occupancy when I entered.

Great motel slightly off the beaten track. It has a liquor store in the lobby -- convenient! Older motel with corresponding facilities, but everything worked and was comfortable. Great value!
nothing!

While the property is old and dated it is clean and comfortable. The bedding is updated, and plenty of towels in the bath. A large fridge, microwave, and plastic utensils are provided. Plenty of drawers and storage. Adequate water pressure in the shower.
Had an issue at check-in. We were given an incorrect room without the pull-out couch which was needed for my adult daughter staying with us AND the TV would not turn on. We were told that they were completely booked and there was nothing they could do for us. The manager finally came in at noon the following day. It took an unacceptable amount of time to resolve the issue. Once we were moved to a room that actually was available the rest of our stay was quite pleasant.

Check in was easy and the staff was nice. I loved the bottle shop. We picked up beer, drinks and a few snacks and didn’t have to drive anywhere. Especially loved the little door that they put a muffin and coffee in that morning right at the room. We didn’t have to go out or search for a breakfast room. Loved it!

The room was clean and the size was adequate. Car parking was right outside the door to the room.
The man who checked me in was gruff and not at all friendly. The office is in a liquor store which is very odd. The breakfast is a joke -- you have to order breakfast to be delivered to your room in the morning at a specific time, and you can only specify 1 item (coffee cake or danish or muffin) for each person (in addition to beverage and juice). The breakfast arrived late and it was deposited into a "breakfast nook" built into the wall of the room next to the door. The item is just a prepackaged item from Walmart. There was no coffee maker, no cups for microwave, no extra security lock on door, and no freezer in the refrigerator. The heating system did not work well.

This is a nice little motel for the PRICE PAID! It is an older motel, but the owners have put work and care into it. Yes, it is a bit of a "throwback", but if you are looking for inexpensive, no frills and clean, this is a good option. The hotel is located about 2.5 miles outside of State College, in a quiet area composed of student housing, some residences and some industries. The beds were reasonably comfortable, the room and bathroom were clean, the towels were much better quality than is the usual case at budget hotels. Neutrogena bath products were also provided, which is also better quality than most budget hotels provide. The room has a small mini fridge and the tv / wifi were acceptable. Upon check-in, you are given a form to choose a few continental breakfast items (coffee/tea, a muffin or coffee cake, juice ...... basic but very nice for a hotel within this price point). You choose your preferred time for the breakfast to be delivered and (this is pretty cool, but shows you the age of the motel) your breakfast items are delivered quietly ...... like a NINJA did it - to a small locked compartment that is accessible thru your hotel room wall! You have to see it to fully understand. There is also a small "bottle shop" at the hotel office that sells beer, soda and snacks. The hotel allowed me to have my dog with me for a small $5 charge, which is one of the primary reasons I booked here. Kelly at the front desk was super sweet and helpful as well. Thanks Nittany Budget Hotel; I hope to return!
The pillows could be a bit better quality. They were a bit flat. There are no USB outlets near the bed or on the counter. The wall-to-wall carpeting in the room was a bit strange.
6.0
Close to the venue of relative’s wedding and close to downtown where the stores and restaurants are located. It was quiet and we had plenty of opportunities to explore while being able to find our motel.
If there was a housekeeper, then they did not come to our room once not even to leave more empty garbage bags.

It was clean and comfortable and had a mini fridge.
Would have preferred 2 queen beds in our room instead of full size.

Simple and easy to maneuver around. Having a bottle shop on property was nice. Quiet
A non-smoking room in between two smoking rooms. Why not put the smoking rooms next to one another?
7.0
Conveniently located near Penn State U. Simple clean and safe place to spend the night. Liquor store on premises is a bonus, big selection without any seedy characters hanging around.
Could've maybe used a newer mattress on sleeper sofa. Ours had a lot of mileage on it but the sheets were clean. You get what you pay for but you do get great value for the money spent.
