perfectly situated for exploring state college's highlights and parks

I had an amazing time staying here, as it was just around a 25-minute walk from the charming Penn State University campus and only about a 20-minute stroll to beautiful Walnut Springs Park, which is perfect for those who love relaxing nature views. plus, the bistro was delightful and the staff was so friendly that it made my stay feel even more welcoming.

The hotel had a lovely atmosphere, and the staff were exceptionally friendly and accommodating. However, the room could use a refresh, and the Wi-Fi was just okay for streaming. Overall, a decent choice for a quick stay near Penn State, but not without a few quirks.

great stay, but minor issues

The breakfast option offered a good variety for our group. The cleaning staff worked diligently to ensure all areas stayed tidy. Additionally, the location was perfect for our activities, making it easy to explore the nearby campus.

The check-in process took longer than expected.

Great location with helpful staff

We had a fantastic 5-night stay at this hotel, perfectly situated at the edge of the campus. The staff was incredibly helpful, providing excellent suggestions and being very informative about breakfast hours. The cleanliness standards were impressive, with everything kept spotless throughout our visit. One downside was that breakfast options felt slightly pricey for our taste.

lovely family experience with thoughtful touches like a pack-n-play for our baby

Wonderful, attentive staff made our stay easy.

Just an ideal choice for a mini-vacation in State College with good price-value balance. The pool and whirlpool are absolutely lovely. Make sure to bring your printed confirmation to avoid any mix-ups at check-in.

Totally recommend for a weekend escape

Comfortable room, spacious lobby, with a complimentary breakfast option that was a nice start to our day and friendly staff who provided helpful local tips for exploring nearby attractions.

The cleaning could be improved.

During my stay at Courtyard By Marriott State College, I found the decor to be warm and inviting, with comfortable seating areas and well-thought-out accessibility features that made navigating the hotel easy for seniors like myself.

Bathroom could use a minor update.

The stay at Courtyard was excellent. The modern amenities and updated decor truly enhanced my experience. The staff was exceptionally helpful, especially when it came to accommodating my requests. The king room with a sofa bed was spacious, comfortable, and the small balcony was a nice touch. The bathroom was well-designed and allowed for good functionality.
