Days Inn by Wyndham Hershey
Good location close the Hershey. Front desk ladies were lovely with a great recommendation for dinner, however that was the highlight of our stay. The shower faucet leaked, the fan made a terrible noise, and you can hear everything in the hotel because the walls/doors are so thin. We had to listen ...

Holiday Inn Express - Harrisburg East by IHG
Room was okay. Bed was comfortable. When we went to use the shower the water was brown and rusty. Cleared up after running water for a bit. Hallways smelled of stale cigarette smoke. Had big fans running in the entrance way.
