Hilton Harrisburg

10/10 Excellent

"Wow, wish we could have stayed longer. The location was excellent and the restaurants in the area were close and dog friendly. It was one of the reasons I picked this place to stay and it had a nice area for the dog as well. comfortable bed which is a plus in itself. There are lots of amenities, but like I stated above, it was a quick stay. The staff we met and the people parking the vehicles were extremely friendly."

8/10 Good

BurgBnB Riverfront

10/10 Excellent

"This place was fantastic! From the outside it looks fine but when you open the front door to the place, we were so surprised at how nice this place was! I am very picky about cleanliness and this place was super clean including the bathroom! The owner has thought of literally everything you would need for a stay away. He was very fast with getting back to us if we had any questions and even checked on us mid way through our stay to make sure we were ok. I would give this place a 10 and highly recommend it!"
