Hotel Butler Inn PA

This was definitely a no-frills stay, but overall, I was pleased. PROS: comfortable bed and pillows, window, air-conditioning and heating unit that worked, shower was hot, TV user-friendly, located in between a Dunkin’ Donuts and a Burger King. CONS: no elevator, no extras (things like blankets, hairdryer, iron), towels were very thin, mini-fridge did not work (I didn’t need it, so I didn’t complain), bathroom run-down/stained.

Context -- used for 3 days 4 nights...2 people. July. the hotel itself is completely adequate and it serves its exact purpose for its price point. I was 5/5 thrilled on this aspect. luckily i had read reviews which stated the towels were ... less than adequate. I can report this is the case. bring your own towels. hand towels, shower towels, anything you could use would be helpful. otherwise, the room was as pictured, the mini fridge useful, the mini microwave worked and was clean. the bed and sheets and room were clean. the door was a little broken but not in a safety way. it is definitely not your 5 star Marriott experience, but it was a 99% safe hotel. no sketchy people (workers or guests), there is an easy way to come and go out the side doors, and it is a generally useful hotel for its pricepoint and location. there is a train located nearby. i did not find it too loud or obnoxious...but I also had to crank the AC, which I felt was not adequate (but again, it was July with 2 ppl in room). EOD, the train was kinda a cool to have as a view, so if you see mountain view as a room option it is definitely worth it (rather than facing the interstate). i would absolutely stay here again, but especially if the point was to save money. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay, i mean, i really think the biggest con was the towels. otherwise, eveything was neutral or better than neutral. helpful staff. no sketchy guests during my stay. simple hotel.
