Allentown Hotels with Bars

Absolutely wonderful stay, I can't say enough great things about the place. Stephen the general manager went above and beyond to make sure that our stay was good. The pillows and beds were comfortable. The place was extremely clean with everything that you would need for your stay. They have an on staff valet service, which was very timely and inconvenient for just a small up charge. The Rooms were very quiet. We did not hear any outside noise, although we knew that hotel was at capacity.

This hotel is very difficult to find, especially in the dark… signage is minimal if any. No real directions on where to park. There is a parking garage attached to the building. No safety measures that we could see; anyone could enter the maze of hallways…a gauntlet of twists & turns that you have to navigate on foot in order to find the actual hotel. UNSAFE!!!We were told NO luggage carts so be sure and pack lightly. Check in took FOREVER and there was no body in front of us. Front desk clerk was however very knowledgeable. No ice that we knew of. ***Excellent breakfast buffet on the weekend …it blew us away!!!AND very pleasant hostess. Requests were not met for additional towels. We would not stay here again even though we are loyal to Marriott.

While the hotel itself was nice, the check-in was a disaster. I had called ahead to let the hotel know we would be arriving between 2am and 3am, due to a late arrival into Newark. When we arrived around 2:45am we were told we could not check-in after driving over an hour and spending another 5+ hours on a cross country plane trip, because the computers were in the middle of a ”reboot” to close out the evening. I was told that if I had called in to tell them we were arriving late someone would have printed keys for us advance, so it was obvious to the hotel clerk we didn't call in (which as previously stated we did). All in all we had to wait an extra half hour to check in, after which we were told the keys probably wouldn't work, so we had to wait for a maintenance guy to walk us up to our room and let us in, and then to add insult to injury, the next day, the front desk calls me up and tells me we never left a credit card imprint (which we did, one of the reasons we had to wait half an hour), so we would have to rush back to the hotel to provide a credit card or risk losing our room for the second night.
