It was ok
My husband and I drove from Kentucky to see the Penn State vs. Ohio State football game. We decided to stay in Altoona on the way, and of course I made the mistake of letting my husband book the hotel. It was just about the cheapest place to stay, but I would have rather spent a few extra bucks to stay someplace a little nicer. I’m not a big fan of motels, and this one was no exception. Although the women at the front desk were friendly, I was dissapointed that they made no effort to help fix our TV. The remote control was not working, and when my husband called, they said he could walk all the way over to the office (which was a separate building) and get new batteries. He walked down there only to receive the wrong kind of battery and only one of them anyways. Also, the vending machine was a very far walk and not very well lit. There was only one machine and they only had limited Pepsi products. The bed was not very comfortable and the pillows were absolutely horrible. They were only about 2 inches thick. Oh yeah, and did I mention the place smelled really strange (especially the front desk area)? Overall, I really wouldn’t recommend staying here. It’s totally worth it to spend a few extra bucks to stay in a nicer place.
Going to Berkey Creamery on Penn State’s campus is a MUST if you’re in the area. The BEST ice cream I’ve ever had!

The complimentary brekfast was OK but cereal and milk would be a good addition. Thank you for being a pet friendly hotel!
