In town for Cortland State track meet. 5 minutes from campus. Out side is going through spring cleanup, mulching etc, bit muddy at entrance, parking lot is in need of pothole repairs. Other entrances key card does not work, not a complaint to walk to main entrance. Breakfast is minimal selection of eggs / sausage/ waffles, Perkins is attached to hotel. Little noisy on highway side, could hear trucks through the night. It was very clean and had a spacious king suite. Happy with stay.
