Review of Crowne Plaza and Valley Forge ...

They were pretty busy when I checked in. I waited ...

They were pretty busy when I checked in. I waited in line for about 20 minutes. When I got checked in, I was told there are no king beds available. I started saying "Its no problem, I really don't mind" when I was interrupted with "Let me finish." The woman at the counter continued, "there are also no rooms available, and you will have to wait for one to be clean. We can text you when your room is ready in 30 minutes to an hour.." I give her my number, and sit down in a chair in the lobby and wait. I waited for, no exaggeration, three and a half hours. I assumed there had been some kind of murder, and the guys from Pulp Fiction were cleaning the room. My coworker walks up to the front, and we were told the rooms have been ready for hours, they just weren't able to text us because of the line ahead. So I get my stuff and go to my room, which smelled faintly of cigarettes (the good news was, there was obviously no murder, because they would have done a way better job getting the smell out.) Anyway, I woke up at 4:30 am to the sound of a baby screaming in the room next to me, and people loudly doing.. "adult activities" in the other room next to me. I got maybe 3 hours worth of sleep, the night before a big conference. The breakfast was good.
