"If your significant other is high naintenance, this is it! I'm used to a complimentary hot bar but this hotel has it's own breakfast chef cooking up eggs the way you want! Great spacious room, sauna, indoor pool, game room, and more. Around the corner are outlet stores, great restraunts, and easy access to the hwy. 30 minutes to downtown Philly. I wouldn't stay anywhere else."

I had a minor issue with the TV and it was taken care of the same day as reported and before I returned to my room. I'm more than satisfied with my stay and will be staying again in a few months. The complimentory breakfast was more than satifactory and very well presented. The staff was very curtious and efficent.
Thanks to all."

"We stayed at the Blakeslee Best Western because it is Pet Friendly. THe hotel itself is clean and conveniently located off of I80. The only negative thing I can say is that the rooom itself was smokey, dry, stuffy, and the sheets were hard as sandpaper. If I had my pet with me I would stay there again and tolerate it, but if I didn't have my pet with me I wouldn't stay there. And don't count on the free continental breakfast. The line was so long that by time it was our turn they had put the food away."

Although a smoke free room it still smelled like cigarette smoke a bit yet not over whelming. crowded breakfast area. Deep and warm pool; perfect for kids to unwind. We tried to stay at same hotel on way home but it was completely booked thus we stayed in Wilkes Barre at another Genetti which was even better. The Genettis obviously try to aim for client comfort and satisfaction."

"We traveled long and far to be disapointed with the stay through the weekend. All was in poor condition! Rugs with burn marks, dust, dirt, wear and tear! Bathrooms old, scared, chipped and tiles that long ago lost the luster one would expect. Poor upkeep of the halls and equipment. Beware of the restaurant times for the breakfast you are paying for as part of the room rate, they change and you had better read the ticket times to get served. Unfortunately we were tired and slept late which caused us to miss the breakfast the 1st day, but the 2nd day we were fooled by the ticket time change and missed again. When we complained all we got were I'm sorry with nothing that could be done. The last night of the stay, we returned late to our room to find it was just passed over and not cleaned! Pillows on top of blankets, no vacume of rugs and bathroom sink and tub left unattended. When we complained again the young lady at the desk went to the manager and he gave a 20 dollar discount on a 360 dollar stay! Never did he come out personally and give us his appreciation or explanation to what may of happened! The young woman did say that she was "Sorry"! Without Punn, we have stayed in motels that leave the light on with better accomadations and the food at the drive through is the better choice! Recommendation -- "Drive Past This place"!"
