"Clean, Safe Lodging with Super Friendly Staff"

Reviewed November 07, 2024 NEW

I love staying at the Hyatt Place Altoona because it is right off the expressway. This makes it easy to stop off for a good night's rest on my way across the country and back. The staff is always super friendly and the rooms are always clean. There is a gas station, Starbucks, restaurants, and shopping in the immediate area. Oh, and the bed's are really comfortable, unlike most hotels. I have been staying here several times per year since this hotel opened. I highly recommend it.

"Great stay at Hyatt Place"

Reviewed October 09, 2024

This was our first trip to the Hyatt Place Altoona and we loved it. It looks brand new, although we were told at check in that it is about 5 years old. The bed was extremely comfortable and the breakfast couldn't be beat. When we checked in we were assigned a room on the 4th floor. We quickly discovered the refrigerator, tv and HVAC system did not work in this room. The front desk clerk found us another room, no questions asked. The Hyatt Place is near an outlet mall and several restaurants. We highly recommend staying here - you won't be disappointed.

"Best hotel of my trip"

Reviewed September 18, 2024

New, very clean, coffee and ice water all day, great breakfast with bacon and scrambled eggs. Rooms have walkin showers, not tubs. Also safes in the room. Only improvement I could suggest is that only one of the night stands has a 110v outlet. This was not an issue for us, but it could be if two people both needed to use CPAPs. One outlet had a extension with 110V and USB C. The other had a clock with USB C. The hotel is in a very quiet area, near an outlet mall and Bass Pro Shop. No through traffic or road noise, overlooks a lagoon. I wish every hotel on my trip was this nice.
