Brandywine Plaza is a good,basic hotel. It's conveniently located right off the highway, and the rooms are large and clean. There seems to be some economizing on soap and towels, but the front desk is very helpful.

This property is apparently now privately owned and not held to any specific standard. Our extended family had multiple rooms there for a nearby family wedding. Rooms, bathrooms, and hallways were unclean & dated, sheets were stained, towels were limited & small, hallways smelled of cigarette smoke or weed, some rooms were VERY noisy and walls seemed thin, very few staff seen, requests ignored repeatedly, multiple people in our group had to change rooms, we were warned of where to park near the hotel due to recent car break ins, etc. In short, we would NOT stay there again and would recommend strongly that anyone considering staying there seriously reconsider.

The location was convenient and the hotel was clean enough. The main reason I booked here was for the free breakfast but there wasn’t any. We stayed Thursday-Monday and there was a sign saying the free breakfast was only weekdays and $14 on weekends. When we went on Friday and Monday morning we were greeted by an employee saying we needed to pay at the front desk to have breakfast. The bathroom mirror was broken in our room and there was no overhead light, only the bedside lamps or window light. We also had a lot of issue with the key cards for our room and needed to swap them three times for working ones. Nothing special, honestly surprised it isn’t a 2-star hotel.

Arrived late night and checked in. Asked for a wuiet room but was told hotel is at capacity. Asked ion on third floor near elevators. Old room, sheets stained, paper thin blanket, lock on door wobbly and loose, chair in the room dirtier and older than some I have seen at tire and mechanic shops. Smell of weed filled hallways. Light inside the room is flickering. Went to sleep finally at 3 am to be waken up by what sounded like someone trying to break into our room ( someone closed their door or banged to some thing outside and our room door shook like it was being broken into. ) people speaking loudly at 5 am outside our room. Just the worst experience ever. My daughter who is 17 did not sleep at all. Disaster of a start to our college tour week.

Smelled like pot and cigarette smoke. Had to switch rooms due to cigarette smoke in the 1st room. Mother had to switch her room due to toilet not flushing. Website states breakfast free, it’s NOT free on weekends. Very old and dated, the only website pictures that matched what the property really looked like was the outside exterior. Onsite restaurant/bar does not open until 6pm, sad. I do not recommend this hotel.

The room i stayed in was dated but clean and comfortable. For the price i paid the property was everything i needed for a one night's stay. I didn't check out any of the property other than my room and the parking lot. The area being safe so i had no concerns getting in or out of my car or leaving belongings in my car. The staff was friendly and helpful.

The hotel is definitely a bit remote from the shopping plazas, but that lends to its quiet location which I loved. A few more lights in the parking lot is a suggestion. I was not a fan of having to pay for breakfast (as delicious as it was) because I stayed on the weekend.

I did not use my reservation and will be requesting my refund. I called in advance to have them note who my other room was for. It took my partner 30 minutes to check in. When I got there, I wasn't even able to check in. One person at the desk, on the phone the whole time. Didn't even acknowledge me for the first 5-7 minutes I was standing in front of him. I won't go back. I did not use the room. I just drove home after my event.
