taliategan Posted August 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 Follow up report to my stay - Hotels in the Allentown, Bethlehem & Easton areas were very close to being fully booked for this weekend. Felt fortunate to get this hotel on Hotwire about 3 weeks ago for $ 59.00. Most hotels were going for $ 110 - $ 200 range, including the Hotwire listings. This hotel was fully booked about 10 days prior to my trip. Hotel was an older hotel with 192 rooms - all on two floors in one building (long walk to lobby area if you were in the back of the hotel). The rooms were fine - they had been refurbished but still had an older look to them. The exterior of the hotel, by the rooms, was in need of refurbishment as it appeared to be the original construction. The lobby/restraurant area, both interior and exterior, was nice and updated. Rooms had frig, microwave and and extra sink adjacent to the bathroom. Hotel had a very nice, large outdoor pool with a enclosed bar by the pool. Based upon the age of the hotel, I would consider this a 2-1/2* as rated by Priceline rather than a 3* as rated by Hotwire. I would have preferred a newer hotel, but based upon on lack of rooms in the area I was happy with my stay and this hotel. Link to comment
