I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were nice with a small kitchenette and a well-equipped bathroom. The bed was comfortable, but the room had a strange odor. The staff was very helpful and informative, offering great service. The location was convenient, but it was a bit tricky to navigate due to one-way streets. The dining could be improved with more options. Facilities were decent overall.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious, clean, and conveniently close to the concerts I attended at the Berks Jazzfest. The staff provided excellent service, especially going above and beyond by clearing snow from guest cars. The location was unique and interesting, offering easy access to downtown views and a lovely Pagoda sight. The dining experience could use improvement, but overall, it was a great value for the money.
