We stayed at this location since it was near Hershey but not overly priced, plus we needed to get on the road early this morning. We ate dinner at O’Reily’s pub before the concert, quick service with good options. The issue we found was the toilet would run if you didn’t pull it up after flushing. Other than great location.
