The Woodlands Inn Wilkes-Barre, Wilkes-Barre

The hotel had a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were excellently clean but some were smaller than expected. Having a microwave and refrigerator was convenient for longer stays but not ideal for a short visit. The service varied from unwelcoming to going above and beyond. The location was good, although there were some concerns like a wet dog smell and the absence of the hot tub. Dining options ranged from excellent made-to-order eggs to disappointing snacks. The facilities offered a lot of fun but missing amenities like the hot tub were noticeable.

Staying on the first floor was a safe and cleaner option. However, the noise from neighboring children and late-night casino guests made it challenging to rest in the damp room. Price seemed fair for the conditions.

Staying at the hotel was a great experience overall. The accommodations were fabulous, with easy outdoor access but slightly lacking in privacy on the bottom floor. The service was exceptional, making me feel at home with the world's best breakfast and incredibly kind staff. The location was convenient, close to the casino and nestled between a busy roadway and a serene stream. Dining options were plentiful and a good value, though improvements could be made. The facilities were satisfactory, with some areas under improvement.
