biddingforhotel Posted June 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 I am so worry so I called the hotel, and I was told the hotel and restaurant operates normal, but the I-81, 25 miles North to the hotel has been blocked for TWO days!!! So, it seems not able to come to the hotel from North ... if I-81 is not open ... Link to comment
dahammer Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 just take the Northeast Extension of the Pennsylvania Turnpike (I-476) north to the last interchange, which is Clarks Summit. You can probably get on the turnpike at either Allentown (via I-78) or Pocono (via I-80). The Hotel is about one mile away, west on Rt. 6. You will pass a Krispy Kreme donut store on the left where they actually make them, look for the "hot Donuts Now" sign, try the glazed cream filled.....here is the PA Turnpike travel conditions site..good luck!!

biddingforhotel Posted July 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 Thanks for the info. I managed to take I-80-W since Easton was flooded and some bridges closed, so I did not take I-78-W. But at Columbia NJ, I-80-W jam, so I chicken out to have dinner. After that, around 10pm still bumper to bumper, but after pass the bridge to PA, traffic moves again, and it has been very smooth from I-80-W to I-380-N to I-81 x194 to take Route 11 to the hotel ... thanks for the GPS ...The hotel is very nice, but located right on the big road of many fast food, supermarket Weis that I am still member for dozen years ... The hotel is old fashion with stype but very clean... I will come back again later .The section of I-81 closed since Tuesday is at the Lenox Pa area, about 20 miles north, so not sure if I can pass to NY tomorrow ... Btw, I am at this Inn at Nichols Village hotel, free wireless Internet, very fast, need to get password from the front desk ... the pool is particular nice with 3ft to 9ft!!! big and nice. For $45 is a good price.I will try $35 that someone got it before, for that price, it would be a steal, I think ... Link to comment
