Bensalem Hotels with Pools

Four days into a week stay and it just keeps getting worse. Shower ran out of hot water first day here. Then seems anyone's guess when the hot water will work - on and off each day. Advertised they had room service, restaurant and bar on site. But when we checked in, was told no room service, bar only opened Friday and Saturday nights and not sure about an actual restaurant at all. They do have free breakfast - but it's not very good at all, typical liquid eggs, hash brown patties and toast/cereal options. Advertise a laundry on site, but dryer ate my money and front desk was no help. Actually told me one doesn't work - ah, no kidding - I would have to call the number on the machine for any help as the hotel doesn't own the machines. There's no signage, no phone number to call. Least the worker should have done was post out of order on the machine they know doesn't work. Tried to use the gym to work out first morning here...tread mill turned on and kept getting faster and faster (even though display didn't show faster speed)...I couldn't turn it down, had to jump off. Weight equipment was ok. Overnight desk employee is nice to deal with; daytime ones not so much. Guess we're taking time away from the phones they are staring at. Place is every clean, cleaning staff way more friendly than desk workers. Unfortunately, so much spray cleaner is used, it takes your breath away in the common areas especially around the elevators.

The pictures on the hotel web site don't match reality. On the hotel web site, a sign says ”newly renovated rooms”. My room was not renovated and the carpet had holes worn in it - see photo. I wouldn't write about that except for the advertising. A sign in the web site photo has the old logo, so it's possible the rooms were newly renovated at that time in the past. As mentioned in other reviews the hotel is dated but I had a comfortable stay. One of the pictures on the hotel site shows nicer lobby furniture, which is not there. Again, I wouldn't mention the unremarkable lobby furniture except for their photos (#6&7). The pool is under repair/reconstruction, not as pictured on the photo list, #31-33. If you're counting on a pool try somewhere else or call the hotel to find out whether it's open. You may have to call a few times as the front desk does not pickup promptly, as noted in other reviews. Breakfast was ok, I had hot water, the room didn't smell, and the hotel is conveniently located. You do need a car as there is not much to walk to other than a convenience store in a gas station nearby. There are plenty of restaurants and shopping about 10 minutes away by car. For Choice members or those who regularly stay at Comfort Inn, this one ranks at the bottom of my experience, but for the price I would stay here again.

Great location next to Parx ******. Good breakfast. Very hard bed/ it is not memory foam. It was so hard and painful that I had to sleep on the ottoman instead.

The hotel is less than 5 kilometers from the outlets and about 35 minutes drive from the Liberty Bell. The environment is beautiful. The room has a refrigerator, microwave, iron, breakfast included, free parking, ample parking space, especially suitable for self-driving accommodation. The front desk service was warm and attentive. The printer was broken, the waiter asked us to email her to help us print, compared with the previous hotel printing charge network fees, a big contrast, I feel this hotel is cost-effective. The bed is large and comfortable, and the hotel has a garden and a swimming pool. And we arrived early at the hotel and gave us early check-in.

Reservations for my group room rate was easy. The reception was warm and helpful-- the staff and the coffee station in the lobby(which was really delicious coffee, by several peoples' standards). The hotel and rooms were not fancy, but attractive and very clean. The air-conditioner is very strong, maybe a bit much-- to keep the room cool but stop the blowing wind across the room, I had to block the vents with my sweaters. The shower products were in dispensers in the tub, which is cost-efficient (really, we don't need to take all those little shampoo bottles with us when we leave). They could use a small light in the bathroom, instead of all on so bright especially when just waking up. If you have TV accounts, you can use them on the room TV, otherwise it's the base channels. They could use a small light in the bathroom, instead of all on so bright especially when just waking up. I was disappointed that there was no housekeeping service. I always keep the rooms clean, but while on vacation, I like having my bed made and turned over. However, I wasn't 1st in the room, and my daughter said there was a note if we wanted service. I came with a wedding party , so I don't know if the continental breakfast is usually included, but it was excellent. All self-serve, but there is staff around for help. Only real negative, is that the digital keys had problems at initial use at most of the room doors. I felt every time I passed someone in the hall, I had to tell them they first need to go to reception to fully activate them. I did read somewhere that may need to be done sometimes.
