10/10
We felt so fortunate to stay at the Gage Mansion while in central Pennsylvania for our son's recent Penn State graduation. While the inn is a 45 minute car ride from campus (and full disclosure: a really hilly, windy one at that), like many PSU parents we found ourselves looking for alternatives miles from campus as State College has a well-known shortage of hotel beds for its big weekends. Innkeeper Nancy is SO lovely. Besides being a wonderful cook and attentive host, she went out of her way to make us comfortable and had suggestions for things to do during our down time. The late arrival check-in process was self-service, but really easy and perfect for our busy schedule. The property negatives were minor ones: Our room was beautifully appointed but small compared to most hotel rooms. On the other hand, our bathroom was roomy, stunning and immaculate. (The fluffy white robes on the door were an appreciated touch.) Breakfast was bountiful and delicious both mornings and Nancy's personal tableside service was impeccable. The inn has an interesting history we appreciated learning about. It's great to see historic properties like this restored and thriving. Despite the tedious distance from campus, the surroundings made up for it and we would gladly book here again should our travels bring us to this part of this beautiful region again.
