Charming, Charming, Charming
The timeless colonial decor, from the fine chandeliers in the lobby to the cozy seating areas perfect for a tête-à-tête. I adored the delicious lobster bisque at Whiskers Pub- a must-try! Having complimentary fresh apples and filtered water available added such a thoughtful touch to our experience.

I loved the comfy beds and enjoyed a relaxing dip in the pool during my stay. The spa offered some great treatments, which really helped me unwind. The only thing I noticed was that a light in the room could be brighter, but it didn’t dampen my overall experience. 😊

The culinary adventure at Triplett’s was a highlight, with fresh-cracked eggs that could make any brunch fanatic swoon. Plus, the cozy spots around the hotel make for the perfect hangout post-meal.
Brunch wasn’t available due to low traffic, and no complimentary breakfast option left me craving morning bites. A softer bed wouldn’t hurt either, as I found the mattress a bit firm for my taste.

During my stay, I was charmed by the historic decor and warm ambiance of the Nittany Lion Inn, which featured a beautiful lobby adorned with stunning chandeliers and tasteful furnishings that truly reflected the university's heritage.

Great stay with comfy vibes!
Pretty good overall! The maintenance team was super quick to fix the sink drain issue when I let them know. The computerized heating was a bit annoying since it wouldn't turn off, but they took care of it quick next morning. Whiskers bar is a nice spot for dinner too. And those apples? A nice touch!
