DO NOT STAY HERE! Filthy, rub-down, and a gaping hole in the roof. This is NOT a hotel. The felt very unsafe, and was terrified to stay. Pictures are not as described. I tried to ask for a refund, and hotels.com could not get ahold of the manager. We left and stayed elsewhere. The picnic table had a hazard cons in front of it. The main \"office\" is in the bottom of someone's house. Read the other reviews carefully. Don't stay!

The room key didnt work. The front desk guy said it was because i didnt do it right and he thought i knew because im young(im 44). The pillow cases were dirty. The bathroom door had 0 chance of shutting and it was clearly a problem that was ignored. Other than that it was just great lol

The room... First, I wasn't expecting much and I wasn't disappointed. The room was very dark, occupied by flood lights which when turned on, make you feel like you're onstage.. There's a tiny lamp in the room which was far from the bed to be useful... There are 2 wall sconces above the bed.. Guess what? They didn't work.

Decor..
As I said the rooms were very dark.. There was a shade on the window that looked like it didn't fit width wise so it was cut.. Uneven so you can see outside on the sides. Not enough to see out but someone may be able to see in. There's no outlets near the bed at least in my room. Lucky I had a long USB cord to plug in my phone.
Oh... I was informed that there no TV or internet due to down wire so no entertainment at all..
I thought I would be offered a discount for the inconvenience but, no.

Toiletries...

No soap..
The hand dispenser for hand soap is watered down and doesn't ebmven suds up when used..
Shower dispensers..
There is a shampoo/conditioner one which is old with no conditioner and the shampoo was a little under half full what something that didn't look like shampoo..

I'm closing, I was only there one night so I got up early and checked out. If you're in a pinch, a tight one this may due for for a night but, if you have a family or want a romantic getaway..

Keep driving

The man working in the office was very nice, and the room was nice also.

The only lights working in the room were bright overhead lights. The smaller lights by the bed wouldn’t turn on.

When we arrived I had a bad feeling in my gut. Ibwent to check in and got the key and the remote to the ac (I thought that should of been in the room). One the first inspection it was an ok looking room. 2 beds, refrigerator, microwave and a full bathroom. Im the type of person that needs to try the bed so I moved one of the pillows and thats where things changed. I saw stains all over the bedding. Nothing looked like they had been cleaned and if they were and still stained they should of been replaced. The corners of the room had cobwebs and the white towels werent white. The trash cans were dirty on the outside like someone spilled a drink and it splashed on the can and never cleaned. We went to a local store and bought bedding and towels to use. If there was another hotel availabe I would of taken the loss and slept elsewhere but their wasnt.

Quaint Stay

This is a nice little family owned motel/inn. It only has 10 rooms. The view is amazing and just outside of the city, so no light pollution if you want to look at the stars. The bathroom was very quaint and I loved the rain shower head. My only concern was there was trash under the beds that was not ours and there were some stains on the box spring of the bed. But honestly, we didn't notice that until the very end when we were double checking to make sure we didnt forget anything. This was a one night trip.

Floors were dirty, there were hairs on the pillows and in the bathroom sink. Bathroom door did not close. Very expensive for the type of accommodation. Pictures were very misleading. No wonder there were no pictures of the building, I wouldn't have picked it because the price was not adequate to the look. You could hear every person next door talking. We did not have any other choice but to stay because it was late, but made sure we wash everything when we got home

No dining at all about 10 rooms but Not my complaint biggest complaint was room was uncleanly toilet had blood and fecesall over it. I understand things happen when we ask kindly for it to be serviced it was cleaned poorly blood was still on the toilet. I asked nicely if he could finish cleaning or if I can take a cleaning product to finish the job. I service the whole room, cleaning, old, sticky dust all over the mini fridge and cabinets also the nightstands and tables. Everything was sticky and covered in dust He was slightly rude, but gave me some cleaning products never came to our room for service to give us any towels check up nothing our whole four day's nothing was provided. I bought a whole new bed set because the bed set provided had blood stains on multiple layers. They looked like they tried to wash them, but didn’t succeed so I went to Walmart to buy a mattress plastic cover a whole bed set that I left most of at the room in the end I don’t recommend staying at this hotel otherwise the area is nice convenient for tourist close to the Pennhurst asylum, but there has to be a better hotel somewhere in the area. Don’t recommend going to this one.

Dirty

Room was dirty. It smelled like smoke and cat pee. I think there was mold in the shower. The comforters smelled bad with cigarette holes in them and brown stains. The mattresses smelled bad. The shades on the windows were stained with what looked like human fluids, if you know what I mean. Not worth the price or risking bringing something home with you.

We booked a room with two beds. However, when we got there the guy at the desk said we had a reservation for a single bed. But then he said they didn't even have one of those available, and that the only room left had two beds, which we would have to pay extra for. On top of that, there is no breakfast, as advertised on both Expedia and on the hotel website.

As others have said this is a small motel. It’s well kept, clean and family owned. Stayed here for close accommodations to a local event and it was lovely. The staff was friendly and accommodating and gave a great recommendation for local restaurants. The room looked exactly like the pictures… and there were no issues with any of the amenities. I will definitely stay here again for this event next year!

I did not like anything about the property. Arrived after 6 and they didn't have my reservation. Its not a hotel, its a motel...the room wasn't ready and when we got in it it was dirty. The mattress is old, pillows even older and yellow the toilet seat was dirty. I left the room ASAP and booked a room at the Residence Inn. Which is where i will be staying next year when we come to the Pennhurst Paracon. What a bait and switch with pictures that are very misleading.

It is quiet and the room is nicely laid out. the two lights by the bed don't work and there is not instruction for how to use the TV. The staff person at front was very nice though he was told he needed to keep a paper copy of all my credit card information. I insisted that was not acceptable, so easy to steal. He understood. Currently I am wondering:

When do they deliver the continental breakfast to your room? No sight of anyone.

This is not a hotel: it’s a very small motel with few rooms in a row. The room was cooled with a window AC unit that was very noisy & turned off and on throughout the night, making it impossible to sleep well. The room itself was clean and spacious. The host or owner seemed friendly. While I paid in full online, the host or owner took a written imprint of my credit card & driver’s license in case of incidentals; I’m now concerned I will be charged extra despite leaving the room clean & undamaged, and I’m very concerned the written credit card info won’t be shredded properly for fraud prevention. Everything in the description was elevated or padded to make the motel, room, and amenities seem better than they were. I chose this motel based on proximity to an event; the relatively low price; and the very short duration of stay. Even so, I would not choose this motel again.

First, by definition, this is NOT a hotel. It is a motel. Old school motels can be very charming, so I booked two rooms at Anuva because it was very close to where my family was and there were no other places available. Once there, I felt it was very overpriced for the accommodations. Like other reviews, things were old and run down. The rooms did not smell fresh.

I was uncomfortable that no receipt was given even when I asked for one. The owner told me Expedia would be billing me. All other hotels give a receipt even when booked by an online travel service. Another reason why no receipt was given was the owner was not sure how much the cost would be until we left in case of damages or theft. Unfortunately, I know that is a problem for owners, but it does not give confidence when someone has your credit card information and will not give you a basic receipt. I reminded the owner that one of the rooms already had broken tiles and repairs in progress not wanting to be charged for damage my family did not do. He said he was aware
It was advertised that breakfast was included but it was not. Covid was the reason given but all other places I have stayed in the last month are serving breakfast without a problem. That is not such a big deal except it is included in the cost and there are no convenient places nearby. I had my grandchildren with me and could have planned better had I known.
On a positive note, I was happily surprised to hear birds singing in the morning.

Not

I kinda feel bad leaving this review because I feel like the gentleman who helped us at the front desk was friendly and kind, and might run the hotel on his own. Let's get the bad out of the way:

- this is a countryside hotel, not a motel
- no inside-only locks on the doors
- $250 deposit is completely unreasonable
- non-refundable room charge is unreasonable
- everything works but general state of disrepair
- carpet coming up, parts of A/C unit fell off while there
- neighbors noisy all hours of the night
- no breakfast served (cited COVID-19, but not masking)
- our room was only quickly cleaned
- previous tenant's food was partially eaten, could not try

The good:
- we remained safe
- our car and room were not broken into
- the appliances do work, even if rusting etc
- the bed was clean, no bugs
- someone probably likes the rainwater shower

Room rate was over $100 a night and I only got it because it was a bit of an emergency and closest to where we needed it. I would probably not stay here again unless the room rate were half the price and numerous things on the \"bad\" list were fixed.

The room was absolutely disgusting! The bedding had stains (brought my own bedding) and the furnishings were old and broken. The toilet was filthy with “hair” and urine residue that my husband had to clean for us to use. We barely slept and ended up leaving at 3am. I had read previous reviews and thought this would be a good choice with other hotels full due to local floods. Don’t even take a chance with this nastiness!!

Surprisingly Decent.

I was surprised at the quality when I first arrived. You can tell it's been a family owned inn/motel for a long time. A main house with the check-in lobby nicely built in and a strip of units.

Service was very friendly; very \"family owned\" feel. The clientele did seem a little shady. I was there because everything was of course booked that Friday and prices were inflated, this place was in budget. Rennovated bathrooms, very nice overhead shower head, had a great shower. Nice bed. They need black-out shades though. The mini FRG & microwave worked.

Some of the furniture was damaged; the aforementioned shady clientele. I'd probably bring your own sheets to this one...probably most hotels for that matter. Located in beautiful rural PA, it also has a big field facing the strip of units. If you have a portable grill or kids.

just a short drive to Phoenixville, Valley Forge, and the highway. A hidden gem really. The room was exactly what we wanted. Modern and up to date, enough space to be comfortable and still move around. The entire room was very clean, and most importantly for me, not only was the bathroom nice and clean, it also featured a very stylish and updated shower. Staff was extremely kind and welcoming.

I would describe it as oddly, uniquely nice. The room was clean and updated; sort of a new retro style. There was supposed to be a continental breakfast included, but it was not available that day.

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE!!

I reserved this hotel online and got the confirmation. Later when I got to the hotel, AFTER driving ONE hour just for this HOTEL, they told me there was no vacancy and that even though I had the Orbitz confirmation, that did not mean anything because they didnt have any rooms left. They DID NOTHING to help find another hotel and the location of this hotel was FAR away from andy other hotel and it was almost 11PM when I left there to go and try to find another hotel room at that hour. VERY TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE and I AM NOT HAPPY WITH THIS TYPE OF SERVICE! IF there were not rooms left...I SHOULD NOT have been able to reserve one! QUITE AWFUL to do that to someone!! Also, on the website the hotel looks like it is one building and the rooms are inside...however, the rooms are all outside and there is a separate building where the clerk is to check in.
