Toftrees Golf Resort
Front desk Staff was very friendly and welcoming. The coffee bar was fantastic. But there was no elevator which was surprising and Bathrooms were dated and had rust stains throughout even in tub. Nice location and property close to PSU.

Kitchen and laundry facilities were convenient. However, sound insulation is quite poor—even small noises travel through the walls. There were frequent disturbances from running, stomping, late-night TV, and conversations.
