For the past several years I have been vacationing in the Frackville/Pottsville area and as far as comfort and value this is one of the best hotels in the area.
Location, cozy.
Can't think of anything.

It was okay for a place to crash for the night, but not somewhere that I would stay if I were on vacation. The air conditioner/heater is extremely loud, the closed caption doesn't work on the televisions, and there is very poor ventilation in the room.

Does HotelsByCity recommend this hotel?
This is very much a budget hotel but many guests who stayed here were happy with the accommodations. The rooms at this Econo Lodge were clean and the rates were low and the property proved ideal for an overnight stay. Some clients said they would pay more next time for a hotel with more amenities while others said they would return here on future visits to Frackville and enjoy the friendly atmosphere.
