We loved our stay at 16 Elm! The property is gorgeous and so convenient to restaurants and the wineries. Our room was very quiet and the grounds seemed like our own private garden. The sitting area was great for a game of cribbage, even though I lost. We also enjoyed golfing, Lively Run Goat Farm and Cayuga Dairy while in the area.

A beautiful home where the downstairs public rooms are available for all the guests! Beautiful gardens to relax and enjoy. A very short walk to restaurants and shops. Lots of special touches such as coffee, tea, and snacks available. Within a short drive of many wineries. Very quiet! A different experience from the traditional hotels.

Romantic, luxurious, clean, quiet place. Fabulous bathroom; especially the shower! Good restaurants nearby. EV charger across the street was very handy. Nice spacious common areas with big tables for relaxing, sipping coffee, and working on our laptops. When there was some confusion with our check in, kind and friendly staff responded immediately to help us out.

The restoration of the Inn and the furnishings have been done well. It is very quiet and set back from the street. What is odd is that there was no staff at all onsite and evidence that no one had been there to pick up dirty dishes or restock snacks. We also texted the number we were given about an issue and got no reply.

The hotel was fantastic! The room was clean, nicely decorated and spacious. My son enjoyed his room on the sun porch, and we all loved the public spaces. It felt like home.
