"The room itself was actually pretty nice. It was clean, the bed was comfortable, and we didn't have any issues with the room itself.
What threw us off was the overall atmosphere of the hotel. It seemed like there were quite a few long-term guests, and it wasn't unusual to see people walking around the halls in pajamas or other around-the-house clothes. Everyone we encountered was polite, but it gave the place more of an apartment or extended-stay feel than a hotel you'd book for a vacation.
If you're just looking for a clean place to sleep for the night, it gets the job done. We were just expecting more of a normal hotel experience, and the overall vibe wasn't really what we were looking for.
For us, it was only a one-night stop, and we were glad that was the case."
"Didn't arrive until 3:30 AM, but they were still able to help me with a decent room. Didn't make it to breakfast, so can't speak for that, but the hotel was located close to many stores, coffee shops, etc. Convenient along 81. "
University Hotel & Suites Shippensburg, Trademark by Wyndham
8/10 Good
"I liked how this place was affordable, had free breakfast/parking, and the staff were friendly. Even though the room could've been better maintained, it was clean overall. The room was not digusting and it did not have bed bugs, which was my main concern. If you expect to have a buffet breakfast, you won't get that here. All they have are cereal, bagels, yogurt, and microwaveable pillsbury products. But again, didn't need anything fancy, just glad breakfast was free. The restaurant attached has pretty good food though. Overall, I'd stay here again."
"ok hotel, it was clean breakfast was ok, good for a overnight, close to the highway, parking was safe, I had come from Montreal where my car was broken into (back window broken) so I had a garbage bag and duct tape on my car, I was afraid it may get broken in again, but it did not. so I would say the parking was safe there. the front desk was friendly and helpful"
"Our check-in experience was smooth, and the room we received was excellent. It was exceptionally clean, spacious, and very comfortable. The shower had great water pressure, and I especially appreciated the complimentary Dove toiletries, including hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and a mini lotion. Those thoughtful touches made our stay even more enjoyable.
Parking was plentiful, and there were several restaurants within walking distance, including Texas Roadhouse, Jersey Mike's, Moe's, and a local pizzeria.
This was our second stay at this location, and once again, it did not disappoint. Based on our experiences, we would gladly stay here again and highly recommend it to others."
