Bowling Tournament Stay
All-in-all, a very pleasant stay. My only worry was the shower chair not quite fitting in the tub. However, I got it to work. Enjoyed the restaurant for lunch on Saturday. There was a separate event going on that we were able to peruse.

In Bad Need of Major Renovation
We found the facility and rooms in bad need of a renovation. Rooms were dark and dingy. Hallways were dirty. There were youth sports teams staying on our floor so we spent the night listening to kids running up and down the hallways most of the night. I would not recommend staying here if you are in Altoona.

Need to Clean!!
When I opened the shower curtain I found a big glob of hair by the drain and more hair by the back of the shower with an opened bottle of shampoo. The shower was definitely not cleaned. I told the girl when I was checking out and she just shook her head but I never even heard an "I'm sorry"

I like the sit down areas they have all through the hotel and the scenery. The only thing I didn’t like is that the hot tub was down and that’s my favorite thing about that place but other than that everything was great.
