Upon check in the counter person was friendly, the room it was fairly clean, could use a scub down though. The bed was ok, pillows flat, the comforter was awfully stained, the chain lock was broken. On the second night we found a cockeroach in the room. They switched rooms with out a problem but were very reluctant to reduce the price paid for the room. They wanted to give 10% off what they were paid by travel website; maybe $10. I insisted on a 50% refund. I go to the hershey area a least once a year, first time at the hojo, it had a reputable name, I will never stay here again!!
would never stay again

when we got there and tried to check in with the paid online company confirmation they fought with me that it was never paid so when i handed over my card i called the online company which was great they were on the phone right away straighted it all out .....but guess what i still i charged for 2 days by them.. so i paid twice for a place not worth paying once for. woman behind the desk in the morning was rude and nasty when i asked for a receipt wouldn't give me one. sheets were clean but dingy & old. window had no screen on it. the place was ok but needed a good scrubbing.
Not bad for a stop close to the highway

The service changes depending on who is at the front desk. Some are very nice and helpful, others act like you are bothering them and unhelpful.
When I asked for a map of the area-- I was told to look around the corner at the rack of pamphlets- I didin't find a map and got lost driving.
I asked for a wake up call for both mornings and never recieved one- but the alarm clocks in the room worked well.
I asked for a late check out and was accomodated by a very nice employee.
Additional towels were no problem.
The hotel was clean, beds fine, the shower was great. The air conditioner was working well.
The breakfast was just passible.
I wouldn't stay here again because there are many other newer Inns and hotels in the area.
Not too bad for the price

The fam and I had 2 rooms for a long weekend at Hershey Park. The rooms were ok, nothing special. For the most part they were clean. The breakfast was pretty good, a half a step above your average continental. Problem is that there is hardly enough seating. Only 2 small tables and a bar with only 3 stools. The parking lot is a pain in the #^% to get into when you are coming in from 81 south you have to pass it, pull into another parking lot and turn around, also you have to cut through a gas station when pulling out of there to go left towards Hershey. Other than that, its a bed and a shower. Nothing special. Good value for the $$. If you or your spouse or anyone in your party is the slightest bit "High Maintenance" you will not be happy. But for the most part, it works....
