The Big Lebowski Audio Tape

This was an affordable motel close to Penn State. It was clean and comfortable, and the staff was friendly. The only odd part about it is it's built adjacent to a bowling alley. You could hear the bowling balls rolling and the pins falling. But I honestly didn't mind it; it was incredibly soothing and I fell asleep quickly every night. Like the sounds of a summer storm. I was also told the food at the Bowling Alley was excellent, but didn't get a chance to try it.

Had a wonderful stay for the price. Very clean, well kept and well appointed room. Water and candy awaited and a red bow on each door for the holiday was a nice touch. Beds were very comfortable which my bad back appreciated. The only downside was the heater fan ran rather loudly. Could have just been the unit in my room. Would love to stay there again if the heater noise wasn't an issue.

Amazing Customer Service & Cleanliness!

We had a fantastic time at Northland motel. The customer service was excellent, and the room was very clean. We paid a reasonable price and our expectations were all exceeded.

I was surprised at the location, sharing a building with the bowling alley, but the motel was quiet, clean, comfortable, and conveniently, located next to shopping and restaurants. Everything was in great condition. I would definitelystay here again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Northland Motel. First and foremost, the staff simply could not have been nicer or more accommodating. The room updates were very well done and it made for a very comfortable stay. We actually loved that the motel is connected to the Northland Bowling Alley - they had great food and a nice bar too! The only concern may be that it's exterior entry to your room, but overall the area felt safe to us. We would definitely stay again!
