REVIEWS

There was a bad storm across the Midwest and we altered our driving route and ended up needing a hotel room for the night so we booked last minute through the Hyatt app and got great accommodations at the Altoona Hyatt. It is a beautiful, newer hotel and well done. The staff was super helpful and friendly.
