I stayed at this hotel during my visit for the Cornell campus tour. The location is great — there’s a grocery store right in front and it’s very convenient to get to the university. However, the building seems quite old, and the bathroom water doesn’t drain well. It’s a very classic place, to say the least.

Affordable basic hotel in convenient location

Start with the positives- friendly staff at check in. Helpful, quick and welcoming. Snacks and water in room as a welcome. Room well appointed. Beds comfortable. Room had a safe and fridge. Bathroom didn’t have a fan and needed updating. A few towels had stains and the shower curtain was deteriorating. Stains on the bedding but it was immediately remedied once brought to housekeeping attention. Easy parking, great location for college visits. None of outside doors lock so a bit of a safety issue. Additionally there was trash and construction debris outside. Hotel is in dire need of a sprucing up. Wallpaper peeling, stained and torn carpet and shattered glass in the door. Breakfast was amazing and staff ran it well.

Have stayed here several times. It’s not a four star luxury hotel. It’s a basic hotel that is clean, the staff is friendly, and it has all the basic amenities. One thing to keep in mind is the beds are full size not queen. Will be staying again in a few months.

The staff were super friendly and helpful! The room itself was nice...sure, the property could use a little TLC here and there, but overall it was great. You’d really have to nitpick to find much to complain about. The location was perfect, close to everything, and the breakfast was delicious. The only thing I noticed is that it seems like anyone could enter through the side entrances. There are cameras around, and I didn’t notice any issues, but coming from NYC, that stood out to me a bit. Otherwise, the place had all the accommodations you’d need, and the welcome gift bag was such a thoughtful touch! I would definitely stay here again.
