The Lancaster Motel by OYO Ronks Near Paradise

This is a very old and small property, but it has been remodeled. There is crisp fresh paint everywhere and our shower stall and vanity (marble or faux marble) were truly beautiful. The bed was comfortable and we were able to control the AC to desired temperature--something that is sometimes lacking in budget properties. BUT...there were no electrical outlets suitable for working. We established two work stations and took turns rotating positions: 1) seated on the one chair with no desk or table surface (working without charging), and 2) standing at the vanity sink (while charging) with no counter space, trying to keep the electronics from falling into the sink. There weren't even outlets near the beds--only above the sink. So I'm torn about what type of review to write. If we hadn't needed the outlets, we would have loved this little place. It had everything we needed...except outlets. To the management--I know that it is very expensive to have the entire property rewired by a licensed electrician. But many older hotels have at the very least purchased lamps for the nightstands that include at least a couple of outlets. I think they wouldn't be terribly expensive. Maybe that could be your next improvement. Thanks for listening.

My wife booked the reservation, and we were apprehensive the entire trip to the motel. We were celebrating our wedding anniversary and had reserved tickets to the latest Sight & Sound theatrical production, which is only minutes away from the motel. When we got to the hotel our anxieties disappeared. I would guess that the structure of the hotel is somewhere in the neighborhood of 50 to 60 years old, but the owners have completely renovated it and it is absolutely clean. The rooms are kind of small, but the beds are very comfortable. The selection of channels on the television is decent. The water is hot in the rooms, like I said, are very clean. The owners live on-site, and they definitely work at maintaining the property and keeping the rooms clean. I highly recommend The Lancaster Motel in Ronks, Pennsylvania. My wife and I will definitely be staying there again in the future.

Knowing this is a budget hotel and that we’d be out exploring, it was adequate. You don’t pay for frills you won’t use and the property was clean, owners very friendly and gave us a welcome snack. At first we were concerned about traffic noise since it’s right on Rt. 30 but we could not hear it. The room is not set up for the business traveler though.

Room was large and super clean. Furnishings and bedding looked brand new. Despite being on a busy road, room was very quiet. Owner was very friendly and helpful. Location was convenient to plenty of restaurants and attractions. Great spot to stay!

Raj and his wife were perfect hosts. Welcomed us upon arrival and were gracious, attentive and all around terrific The room was immaculate, cozy, quiet with very comfortable beds and pillows. You can’t beat the accomplishments for the price and close proximity to the Lancaster County adventures. We highly recommend a stay with them.
