Altoona is a tricky town when it comes to motels, no real expensive hotels, but no real cheap ones either. Prices of any of Altoona's lodging can swing upwards when anything in town or State College (such as games) takes place, and that happens often. When I'm in the area I'm usually busy; don't have time to use a gym... More

My family and I stayed for 2 nights in March. The customer service at check-in and check-out was great. Very friendly during every interaction. Room was clean and included a refrigerator and microwave. Breakfast was included every morning and there was a nice selection of items to choose from. The motel is located in a central area and is just... More

Stopped here for one night while seeing some of the area parks. The price, cleanliness, and customer service were all very good. The included breakfast was nothing fancy, but very adequate. The desk person on duty assisted with some area restaurant information and was very helpful. Room had microwave, refrigerator, and reading chair. A/C worked well, and room was quiet.... More

I'm only about 45 miles from Altoona, but as a journalist covering a wrestling tournament that would take me late into the night on Friday and resume early Saturday, I wasn't keen on making the drive twice within the span of eight hours or so. I convinced my boss that staying in Altoona would be somewhat balanced out by the... More

I spent two nights here - was VERY happy with the room - nice and clean, odor-free, comfy bed, well-equipped, and a nice big recliner rocker!! I was checked in by a very pleasant lady and was not disappointed in the least. I too was charged a buck each night just because there was a safe in the room (which... More

Stayed one night on business. the hotel is on a hill, with a pretty nice view. very quiet and safe area. definitely not fancy, but the room was clean and the staff was great. not a palace, by any means, but cant beat the price or proximity to shopping/highway/food More

You don't expect a lot when you book a Super 8, but some are better than others. This one was pretty good. It's on the edge of town near the Interstate, but that's where all the motels in Altoona are. This one is at least behind a hill, so there's no road noise. The room was nice with coffee maker,...

Stayed here for the Bama / Penn State game. Everything in and around the hotel was clean & in great shape. Staff were nice and friendly. Only downsides, 2nd floor hallway had a slight smokey smell, but nothing too bad & was charged a $1.00 a night safe fee even though the room safe was never used. All in all... More

We stayed here while passing through this part of PA. We did not have a reservation but had not trouble getting a room. However, the room smelled like old closed up room. (We had a non smoking room) Both beds were really hard. Good if you like a really firm mattress I guess. We had noise neighbors above us. Not... More
