While the staff was friendly, the hotel was rundown the location was good but better hotels in the area. You would think that baskets would be displayed and used inthe hotel but only saw a couple inthe lobby. More

The location is very convenient. There are several good restaurants within walking distance and many more just a short drive away. The hotel staff is quite pleasant. The gift shop is a nice place to make purchases of Longaberger products. The complimentary breakfast is not much to speak about. It needs improvement. But the breakfast area is spacious and clean....

I booked the Made in America Package for a girls weekend trip on March 31 and April 1. When we arrived we were greeted by Barb at the front desk, she checked to see if our room was ready, as we had arrived early, and it was. We then checked in and were given all the information, and the coupons... More

My husband and I wanted to see the Longaberger Homestead and thought it would be great to stay in a hotel owned and operated by Longabeger. We booked the Made in America package. The lobby had cozy seating arrangements that included nice displays of Longaberger baskets and pottery. Unfortunately, our room was a terrible disappointment: peeling wallpaper, old mattresses, chipped... More

My wife and I have stayed here previously and were pleased with the staff and accomodations. However, this trip showed that this hotel is on a downhill slide. First, we booked a king room and received confirmation for one. When we arrived, we were given a queen room and told that no king rooms were available. Of course, there was... More

My husband booked the Made in America package w/Longaberger for a birthday present over my birthday weekend. Once we got to the hotel (much later than anticipated due to weather, traffic and bad directions on GPS), we were greeted by friendly front desk staff who thoroughly went thru the details of the package and a warm welcome with a smile!...

We booked a Made in America package and had a great time. The room was clean and spacious. It could use some updating but overall it was very nice. The staff was very helpful. The only complaint I had was the hot water or lack thereof. I don't know if they had the temperature set low or the demand was... More

I booked a Made in America package through Longaberger which included 2 nights stay at The Place Off The Square. This hotel is very easy to get to, right off the highway. The room was pleasant. The front desk staff was very helpful and friendly. We didn't use the pool, but it seemed okay. The breakfast was decent--included scrambled eggs,... More

After purchasing Longaberger products for years, my husband and I chose to stay at this hotel because it was owned by the Longaberger company and our expectations were high based on the Longaberger quality standards of their baskets etc... We were sooo disapointed. Check In & any dealings we had with staff were fine. The hotel itself needs to be... More

I stayed in this hotel because it was booked as part of our trip to Dresden, Ohio to visit the Longaberger Homestead and Dresden. The staff was friendly and helpful and the rooms were very clean. The continental breakfast was very filling. There were three bus tour groups there when we were there. We didn't have any problems. More
