La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Harrisburg-Hershey
Terrible. The shower was cold, the paint in the room was peeling. Smelled horrible in the hallways. Bed was sunken in. The fan in the room was loud and clunky. A bit sketchy too, there were police that were patrolling the hotel lot and front desk. This place is no where near a 8 out of 10.
