The staff is wonderful, the location is great, parking is easy, the beds were comfortable, the price was very fair, rooms were quiet and overall was satisfactory. This has been my family's go-to place when visiting Penn State. This time I noticed a few things in both of the rooms we booked that I wished were in a bit better condition but overall I will stay there again.

It’s a Motel. Not a hotel. But the staff was fabulous. Our room was clean. The beds were very firm but thankfully that really worked for my back problems. Very quiet.

I've stayed at the Stevens Motel a few times. It is always extremely clean, which is my #1 thing I look for in a motel or hotel. The area is safe, and it's only a very short ride to Penn State's campus. Added bonus is it's right next to the Waffle House, so very convenient to pick up breakfast. The beds are very comfortable, and the proprietor and her family are very nice to deal with. Great prices, too! This isn't the fancy Hyatt hotel with all the amenities, but it's exactly what I'm looking for to visit my college son.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The lobby was untidy, and the Wi-Fi signal did not reach our room well, constantly disconnecting from our devices. The room itself had a strange odor, and to make matters worse, I discovered a flea between the blanket and sheets, and found another one on my foot the following morning. When I reported this to the woman at the front desk she did not seem particularly concerned. She offered a brief apology and said they would take care of it, but it felt more like a formality than genuine concern. No discount or refund was offered.

Checking in at the hotel was seamless. The receptionist, and I believe the owner, were friendly. Penn State College is a 5-minute drive away. The hotel is very old. The rooms are very old and poorly maintained. The bathroom is very small and unusable. There were only two towels for the three of us. The internet didn't work in the room. We changed rooms on the last day. Our new room was larger and didn't smell bad. I think the hotel owner means well, but they need to spend some money on the hotel and make it look nicer.
