Excellent reasonably priced hotel if you are frequenting the Shippensburg or Chambersburg area. Very bright and clean and I felt really safe here as a solo traveler. Great small gym and pool, the breakfast had lots of choices and the coffee is freshly ground. Best of all, this place smells so good! They should sell whatever they are using as air freshener!

Very clean….the hotel even smelled fresh. Brice at the front desk went over and above on service. Breakfast was excellent, not your typical continental breakfast. Different options on the two days I stayed. Easy in and out location. I’ll stay there again.
