Our group stays at the Courtyard by Marriott every year for the Indoor State Track championships. They always take great care of us. We get the conference room, a catered dinner, breakfast, all at great prices. We would not stay anywhere else.

Overall the hotel was beautiful. The room was homey and the couch was quite comfortable and had photoshoot potential. The only issue I found was in the bathroom. They had not updated the shower head or the bathtub. The shower head was this weird rain shower wannabe and you could tell once upon a time the tub had a rubber mat. Really it is not that had to change a freaking shower head out.
ConcordHospitality, General Manager at Courtyard State College, responded to this review
Dear Shanna M,
I'm pleased that you had a good stay overall even though the shower/tub offerings were not to your liking. Your honest feedback is very much appreciated as it helps us learn how we are doing and what we can improve. Thank you for staying with us and I hope we have the chance to better impress in the future.

We stayed there to move my son to PennState. I am a regular Marriott customer, so I booked there for points and status really. Might not be the best location for moving standpoint, but very spacious, clean and comfortable as you would expect from a Marriott group hotel.
They staff was really friendly and helpful as well.
Will most probably stay there again when I come visit my son.
