We had the indoor pool to ourselves on both days we were there.
The Desk clerk was always helpful.
This place is just across the street from Adventure Land so it was real handy. You could walk over.
We had a nice stay here. The hotel was nice, clean, and quiet. The staff were very nice and helpful. Continental breakfast was good. The only downside was the pool was not working due to mechanical issues.

Something bit me in the night.
Hotel smelled of stale cigarettes.
Quality Inn's are hit and miss for property quality. This one was mid/below average. The exterior looked very worn, so did hallways inside. The pool was an odd color - couldn't see the bottom of it and it was only 3' deep. The rooms looked better than other areas. It is a lower price for a reason, too, so for the money it was slightly lower than expected.
I am not one to pay much for a hotel room. It's always a gamble on rather the hotel will be clean and comfortable or not. This hotel exceeded my expectations. It was both clean and comfortable. Breakfast was free and satisfactory. The clerk who checked us in at 9pm was fast and friendly. For our short less than 12 hour stay it was well worth the money.
The Quality Inn in Altoona is just fine for a modestly priced hotel whether you need a quick stopover or perhaps visiting Adventureland. Staff were friendly and efficient. Furniture in the room was a bit weathered, but the bed was super comfortable with fresh coverings.
The entire building smelled nasty and the hallways were incredibly dark and scary. It felt like walking through an episode of American Horror Story. In the room, the stand the tv was on beat to hell and the door looked liked it had been kicked in at one point. We noped out of there immediately and went to a different hotel. The whole atmosphere around the hotel felt dangerous and unsafe. My partner, who is a rather large and muscular man felt creeped out as well.
Place is clean. Front desk associate was nice. Bed was comfortable. I wanted a value priced room for travel that was clean and that’s exactly what I got.
