Editorial
Hotel overview
Located along the I-81 corridor just outside Scranton, this relaxed all-suite hotel suits travelers seeking functional comfort and easy access to local attractions. Each suite comes equipped with a full kitchen, ideal for extended stays or guests who prefer self-catering options. The property's informal vibe is enhanced by thoughtful amenities such as an indoor pool, although some reviews note it may occasionally be closed.
Guests appreciate the accommodating staff who help create a welcoming atmosphere, accompanied by free breakfast to start the day. The hotel lacks an on-site restaurant but offers a convenient business center and accessible facilities. Its proximity to family-friendly spots like the Electric City Trolley Museum and the outdoor activities at Montage Mountain makes it a practical base for exploration.

Guest reviews
What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Mike at the front desk is so nice and accommodating! Me and my fiance travel alot and it’s very rare to have this type of service in hospitality now a days. He went above and beyond for us and made our stay amazing. Definitely an asset to the staff and this property!! if we are in the area again we will definitely be staying here. P.S we actually could get youtube and netflix on the TVs which was amazingggg”
“Staff was very welcoming and suggested places to visit. Breakfast was good. They had a nice variety.”
“This is such a nice cute hotel. When I first got there, I didn’t even realize that it’s a hotel building. Rooms are a little bit aged, but very nice size. This is a no-frills hotel but great location.”
“The positive: Rooms are indeed clean like other reviews mention and the staff is actually good. The bad: pool was closed, TV is obsolete and shuts down automatically, the walls in the common areas are badly scuffed, and they really need automatic doors it has a single and somewhat heavy door that makes it difficult to keep open when bringing luggage .”
