very little hot water, only half roll of toilet paper in room, weird heat, weird tv setup, extremely wirnkly bed linenes make one wonder if they were unwashed from the previous guest. Not terribly unclean, but with just a little more care and concern for the guest, this could be a failry decent budget motel. Would've contacted the office to... More

The name is quaint, nothing else is. The Amish should protest to have the name changed. This hotel is downright disgusting and ownership on site doesn't seem to care. They're usually no where to be found anyway. 1. The place is filthy and run down inside and out. 2. AC, TVs don't work 3. Lamps are broken or bulbs burnt... More

I can assure that there is someone on property at all times who could have helped with any concerns or questions you may have had. We were going through a property management exchange at the time of your visit... More

I had a really good experience staying this motel and even after. At first, considering the reasonable price, It was pretty good place to stay! And guys, it was less than 80 dollars per night for 2 queen size beds and some old feature at the bathroom toilet cover does not make any problem, I stayed there on very snowy... More

I enjoyed the friendly atmosphere at Amish Lanterns. Granted, it is not the Four Seasons, but it isn't priced like it either. I was always told, "you get what you paid for," so I had to laugh when I saw people harrassing the manager because they "were used to better." I chose this motel because I didn't want to have...

Sorry you had to witness an agravated guess but as the saying goes "you can't please everyone" and you had to listen to the guest. Again thank you for the... More

The place is Run Down; service was very bad and didn’t know about the breakfast room down the hill in a separate building until just before leaving. The ice machine was broken and had to go to office for it and then only got ¼ bucket full. The coke machine took several of my dollars because they wouldn’t keep it... More

This was quite possibly the worst motel I have ever stayed at. We checked in yesterday (8/23/11) and left later that night. We had a great time in Strasburg after we dropped our bags off and came back to a horror show later that night. First off, there was a giant spider web hanging from the ceiling. We were told... More

The first thing to know is that we are REALLY easy-going people and don't get too worked up about little inconveniences. That having been said, we were flabbergasted when we got to the motel. Made reservations early due to what appeared to be a very nice website, but when we arrived we found a motel that looks like it had... More

I had read reviews stating this motel was bad, but I figured even if the motel was old and "shabby," we only needed a motel for one night and just wanted a clean room with 2 comfortable beds, and AC. We had reservations made several weeks ago. When I walked in, I told the "new" manager I just wanted to... More

The room itself was fairly clean. The motel inside and out and the grounds were very run down and shabby. The outdoor pool was not yet open but I would not swim in it regardless. Dirty and not well maintained. No phone or clock in room. The free breakfast consisted of bran cereal, donuts, toast, coffee, juice and milk. On... More
