Lancaster Marriott at Penn Square
Very nice stay with great rooms and very nice staff. I was disappointed that there was no room service. After a long drive, it would have been great to order some food and drink to the room. Not even breakfast was available to order in.

There is a restaurant next door, it was closed on Monday. Sheetz is also on the corner at the light. The shower needs to be fixed. The ceiling tile in the bathroom needs to be replaced.
