We were greeted by a smart, intelligent young lady. She was polite, professional & informative. She offered assistance with any issues that might arrive. The carpet & tub needs to be updated,

10/10 Exceptional

The peppery was a bit old and dated, doesn't have any real facilities. There's a few things around, mostly fast food and some discount stores, groceries and gas. Pretty reasonable.

Not a great value
Patrick, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The location was super convenient!. The staff were friendly and helpful. My room was clean and comfy. I was in town for the SUNY Cortland graduation ceremony, as were most of the other guests. When leaving, they gave each of us a cute stuffed Red Dragon (the school mascot)!
Michelle, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We were there for graduation weekend and each morning received a small token of appreciation from the hotel. Loved the dragon! I was able to compliment the manager in person for his amazing staff!
Tyler, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Hotel is very old and outdated, had a horrible smell. The wallpaper in the room was peeling and there were cracks in the wall/ceiling
Julie, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Mama needs a make over...Fast

The hotel is old and capital investment is not occurring. The room had 1980's wallpaper and due to the age, it was peeling off the wall on every piece of wall paper.
Ronald, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Our room on the first floor was smelly, damp and dingy. The attendant very kindly let us try a second-floor room. It had less smell and was not damp. (It too was dingy.) We moved to the second-floor room and were very glad we did.
Jonathan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great employees and manager

Staff was VERY nice and easy to talk to/deal with including the manager who was there in the day when I checked in. Honestly, my ONLY problem was with the dampness in both the hallway and the room. They need dehumidifiers at least on the main floor. The bed was really comfortable and I'm not a good sleeper - when I fell asleep, I slept REALLY well.
2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Very old! Needs a serious facelift. Had to switch rooms bc the toilet wouldn’t flush. Then the toilet in the second room broke as well and would not flush.
Beth, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall a decent place to stay that will not break the bank, convenient to I-81 for travelers passing through good breakfast as well.
