The hotel is quaint not updated but very clean. The location is great as there are restaurants, breweries, shops and a distillery in walking distance. We had read that there was housekeeping service each day but they did not clean the room the day we stayed and we had to turn in our towels to get two new towels. But it was a good value.

This place is very cute, I loved the atmosphere and everyone was super kind. There’s definitely some updates needed, and probably a deep clean just to get some of the things housekeeping can’t. All in all I had a really nice time and would definitely stay again. There’s plenty of places to walk to, and I really loved being able to see the rollercoasters right behind the building. IF YOU ARE GOING TO THE STADIUM, don’t drive over, if you are able bodied, just walk. It would’ve been much faster.

Long check-in and hard beds
Overall, the stay was fine, but don't have high expectations. It's an older property. It feels homey, but I wouldn't recommend long stays. The bed was hard and the bathroom pretty small. Our washcloths and hand towels were stacked on the back of the toilet, which I find unsanitary. It took over 45 minutes to check in because only one person was checking people in, and she walked each set of people to their rooms. There is no breakfast option. It would be difficult for a family to stay there with the small space, even in a double bed room. While the people were friendly, I probably won't stay there again.

Cute cottage style hotel, in a great location. Hershey is just a charming town & this Simmons Motel is a perfect representation of that feel. The owner was fantastic and so kind. She even let us check in early, as we were exhausted from a red eye flight from Oregon & long drive from Pittsburgh. Highly recommend!

I was very disappointed in this stay. From hair in the end and in the bathroom , too the nasty smell of the carpets , no closet or a place to put luggage , Luke warm water … and I could go on. Not worth it at all.

You pay for what you get. This is an older property and I loved that you got an actual key for your room. The staff was excellent but there was some issues. First and foremost, the A/C unit has not been cleaned for a long time and there was black residue visible when looking in the vent. On two seperate occasions, not in peak time, the hot water in the shower was not quite up to snuff. Also, there was no hair dryer in the room. Once again I look to the price I paid, and it is certainly a bargain given the proximity to Hershey park and restaurants. I would stay there again, but would check the AC unit before I stayed in a particular room.

Simmons Motel was wonderful! It had a lot of charm! My only complaint was the water never got hot for a shower and the AC wasn’t the coldest but it was a super hot night so understandable. I would def stay again. Easily walkable to have dinner or a drink. The staff was super friendly!

Great little spot
The ladies at the front desk when we checked in were so nice and helpful. This motel offers rooms and small apartments. We stayed in an apartment which fit 5 of us comfortably. It also had a full sized kitchen and fridge which I wasn't expecting. It was clean and had fresh towels in the bathroom. Perfect for an overnight to see a concert in Hershey. I would recommend staying here if going to the park since it's within walking distance!

Cute but uncomfortable
Great location and the room was cute. The bed does need to be replaced. The AC for the room was also under rated.
