Our stay at the Sentinel Motel on August 22 thru Sunday 24, 2014 was excellent. This property is away from the highway and busy roadway, so our room was extremely quiet. Though the room was a little small, it was exceptionally clean and was truly a Non-Smoking Room. Our bed was very comfy and the headboard was very stylish! The staff was very friendly and very helpful to my husband & I. They helped us with an electronic issue where another hotel would have said to bad! We will be going back to this motel since my son has moved to Westchester, PA and this is a 5 minute drive to see him. Thank you again Sentinel Motel and we will be back again! P.S. Loved the peaches :-) !

Room tip: We had a king size room which was very nice!

Being listed as #1 place I had higher expectations. Four good things: tho on a main road (202) it was set back so it was quiet, the manager was nice, the bed was very comfortable and the shower head was large with good water flow. The rest was like I was staying at an old aunt's house... Mold in shower, dirt in corners, outdated bathroom.

My husband and I stayed here for a few days in July with my brother and his partner and loved it. I am returning for another stay this weekend with my son and his girlfriend. The Sentinel is clean and reasonable priced. The bed was comfortable, it was very quiet, and the staff were amazingly efficient, friendly, and responsive. As a testament to their character, I left my wedding band in the room the day we checked out. After a day of sightseeing, I realized what I had done and we stopped by that evening to see if it had been found, fully expecting that it would be gone, lost in the laundry. Within 3 minutes of our stop it was back on my finger with the well-wishes of the owner. Top-notch people and a wonderful place to stay!

This is what I would like to call "vintage". The room colors are very 1970s deep maroon. The bed was awesome. I swear they put 1000 count thread sheets on the bed. Even the table lamps were cool. And this place was SO clean! There was a big tv, microwave, and good sized motel fridge. I could have slept there for a week.
Staff was fantastic. Price was perfect. No ice machine found, but two soda machines close by on the property. Quick drive to everywhere. I am looking forward to coming back for another comfortable night's rest. My travel companion agrees.
Two complaints out of my control. The A/C froze up. And the exhaust fan in the bathroom was on it's very last rotation. Front desk said those issues were being addresses as soon as summer holiday travel slows down. I will be back!

Room tip: Make early reservations. This is a small facility, maybe 30 rooms? I got the last room on a Tuesday.

My husband and I recently stayed here for four nights after having read prior reviews of how nice this little place was. well, it certainly exceeded our expectations. firstly, although it is located on a busy highway, the property is located on a hillside so you don't see or hear any traffic. our room had a comfortable king sized bed and everything was very clean. My husband and I sat outside one evening while he smoked his cigar in the front where there are fruit trees including apple, pear and nectarines growing. it was convenient to all the places we visited including Longwood Gardens, Winterthur, antiquing, tubing, etc. We had a great time and would DEFINITELY recommend this place and would return in a heartbeat if we are in that area again. I have already recommended them to friends of ours who will be in that area next month.
