"I was very satisfied with my stay.  The room was very nice, the bed very comfortable, and I enjoyed the ample space and layout of the bathroom.  I would, without hesitation, recommend the Penn Stater to anyone.  I especially enjoyed the option of your shuttle service which we used to take us into town for dinner one night."
