I've been through Breezewood hundreds of times. The tagline on old postcards used to be: "Breezewood, The Town of Motels". Though, there seems to be fewer now than I remember. It's effectively a supersized rest-stop consisting of a drag of fast-food chains, motels and gas stations. The article is right, and it's pretty unmistakable if you've been there before. Yeah, depending on your point of view it's a hyperreal mash-up of everything that's wrong in the American urban landscape. There really is nothing to do there other than pee or get gas. If you are up that way and want to stop somewhere interesting that's nearby... Bedford PA (http://www.downtownbedford.com/ http://www.downtownbedford.com/) -- has a charming historic "mainstreet" with interesting shops, restaurants and festivals. Bedford Springs Resort (not far from Bedford), is posh old hotel with superb spa with natural spring water and access to some really good hiking. Sort of like that hotel in "The Shining", except without horror. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omni_Bedford_Springs_Resort https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omni_Bedford_Springs_Resort)
