Rooms on the site show brick walls. I received a room that looked nothing like the pics, no brick wall. It was by the housekeeping closet and the parking deck door. Also, I was charged $40 more for the night than what the actual rate was. It was $99 total, yet Expedia charged me $140.

Had a wonderful 3 night stay at the Lancaster Arts Hotel. The staff were friendly, parking convenient and free, as was the continental breakfast. The room was well appointed and super clean. The only two negatives were the lighting could have been brighter, and the products in the bathroom had not been replenished. Would definitely stay again if back in this area.
