Great stay…

Cute hotel right on Lake Seneca…staff were very friendly and accommodating. Hotel rooms are dated, walls are VERY thin, but it does look like they in the process of updating. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Great location and great value.

We had a short, comfortable stay. The staff member was very friendly and helpful. Our room was clean, the bed was very comfortable and firm, and the location was quiet. The Anchor Inn provided an inexpensive alternative to staying in the Watkins Glen area, and was only a couple minutes from downtown. We'd definitely stay here again.
