Home2 Suites (and I'm sure others) has rooms with 2 queen beds plus a pullout sofa if you want to double everyone up.

Looking to book a hotel for one night Chol hamoed Sukkos with Marriott points. What’s the nicest place in Lancaster that would be close to a minyan? I’m sure after the summer some people have stayed at some Marriotts there :)
