"Overall okay"
TripAdvisor user rating 4.0 out of 5
Reviewed August 23, 2025
We stayed here because it was practically across the street from Dorney Park. Check in was quick and easy. Our room was fine, an average hotel room. The only thing I was was a bit updated and need more cleaning and fresh paint was the pool/jacuzzi area. When swimming I noticed a bunch of people etched there name all along the entire pool wall which appeared to be some type of film that reminded me of soap scum. Needless to say I was a bit grossed out and got out. There was also no pool towels on the shelf designated for them. Other than that my shirt stay was fine.

"Seriously needs a COMPLETE overhaul, or just torn down and rebuilt"

This will be my 3rd attempt at writing a review that HIGHLY recommends AVOIDING this hotel (literally keeps making me revise my review). So, just added a litte detail for only a couple of the issues (so much more to it 🤢 and TOTALLY my fault for not taking 5 seconds to look at the reviews. Ya'll warned us 😭). We had TWO rooms: If you're ok with overwhelming smells of cigarettes (to the extent that the AC just blows straight cigarette smell), the burns in the linens, the odd smudges of "things"/"stuff" on the walls, the tub that does not drain, therefore you're standing in *gags* "stuff", the elevator that needs some serious attention, the sticky substances on almost everything you touch, the room doors that do not close, AND SO MUCH MORE. Have already reached out to Wyndham, through a survey email. They hope they can "win back our trust". Trust will be earned if I ever check back to see if any improvements have been made, right? 🤷🏻‍♀️

My stay was good, only things that were wrong: shower head was clogged, cleaned it with vinegar ( my grandmother's hack) and tv didn't come on initially. But overall a good trip

"Biohazard Issue"
TripAdvisor user rating 1.0 out of 5
Reviewed July 04, 2025
I would not recommend this property. I have a multitude of photographs of the human biohazards at the property. I am still waiting to hear back about waiving my cancelation fee, when it is very clear that this was not a healthy place to stay, let alone a comfortable place to be. Additionally my review was being flagged for use of words used to describe the exact biohazards we came across.
