Very clean room. Quiet. Staff was wonderful and breakfast definitely above what you usually get at this price! Property is dated and in need of some maintenance but the pluses and price make up for that.

4/10 Fair

Clean room good breakfast. Very noisy room location. Very disappointing. Could not sleep because of loud music in club and people in parking lot and very noisy people in hallways and near club. I would rate this part 1star. Will not come back if we would get another room in this area.

Run Down

This hotel was in various states of disrepair. Many places like the elevator had several buttons that didn't work, and the solution was just a printed off sign saying, "press the up button to go down." The toilet in our room was filthy and also ran nonstop during our entire stay. The room had a strange smell, as well as was very dark and tight. The hallway and elevator smelled like someone was smoking Marijuana.
Jacob, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved our stay at Woodlands in Wilks Park Pennsylvania for five days and four nights. We enjoyed a quiet retreat, but with access to a bustling little town. The nature courtyard that is your view is amazing and we’re so relaxing.
Lisa, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

Stay away filthy property and rooms
Bruce K, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel served the purpose of providing a place to rest and sleep. The menu for the restaurant didn’t match what was on the website. It said they provided room service, but they did not. The ice machine was broken and we were not provided K-cups for the Keurig in our room. Finally there was a power strip in the room and all the appliances, lamps, etc on one side of the room were plugged into it.
Frances, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful location and peaceful view. Food and drinks were wonderful at the restaurant/bars on the facilities. Friendly staff. Room clean and shuttle service to local casino. Overall, a nice getaway night stay for us.
