It met all our needs and expectations. Mildly disappointed in the swimming pool, water was dark and cold and the whirlpool was not warm and also, when still, didn't look very good.
Positives: The room had a sofa and coffee table, nice for in room eating.
Negatives: More imagination could have been used in placing the furniture that was in the room, such as the easy chair.

I loved everything about the hotel except that they block access to making reservations with other hotels on the free computer in the business center that is<BR/>really tacky and turned me off to staying at Marriott & Courtyard.
Positives: Great staff and facility.
Negatives: No restaurant so no 3* just 2 1/2.

Attached to the County Convention Center, hotel is a solid performer for a business traveler. I always appreciate a mini-fridge in the room if I'm staying more than one night and my room had one. Indoor pool and hot tub really helped in relaxing after a 15 hour day. Staff was very friendly. Didn't try to see if wireless internet was available in the room. Wired internet was a little bit slower than what I'm used to. Breakfast featured many items including made-to-order eggs, but was $9 so I went to McDonald's. I would definitely recommend this hotel if your travel takes you to Altoona, just under two minutes (two turns) off of I-99.
Positives: Spacious room, large flat-screen TV and mini-fridge.
Negatives: Internet (through wire) was slower than what I'm used to; no free breakfast.

This hotel is clean, modern and comfortable. It offered far more than what I expected. The only disappointments were a small indoor pool and service at breakfast that was spare and grudging. Having stayed at a number of other local hotels I can say that this is the class of the bunch.
Positives: Exceedingly pleasant accommodations.
Negatives: Out of the way location.
Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 18 Aug 2008 rated 10 out of 10.

Finding entrance road was a little tricky, especially at night (sign not lit). Lobby was overly cool (desk staff wore sweaters). Waited over half hour for luggage cart - only two on hand. Staff was quite accommodating. Easy access to shopping.
Positives: Friendly helpful staff, lots of pillows.
Negatives: Hallways uncomfortably warm, bathrooms should be clean, bed was uncomfortable.
