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.

Okay stay
The overall room was okay for the price. But the breakfast wasn't a true breakfast. They have a picture of a wonderful strawberry dessert that they don't serve. There were also no vending machines to get food or water on the property.

We needed a place to stay before a ski day at Greek Peak. This hotel is close to the mountain and also several restaurants in Cortland. Property shows age but room was clean and warm on 3 degree night. Reasonable price for a king room and bed and pillows very comfortable!

Not So Much Quality
The hotel is a bit runned down but basically clean. Looks like it hasn't been updated in 20 years.

This property needs a total facelift. We had to change rooms when we checked in because the toilet would not work.
I have never seen so little food put out at the breakfast buffet. Two yogurt, four muffins for example. The decaf coffee was dead cold. The staff member apologized and brewed another pot.
The staff were polite, friendly and helpful.

The ladies at the desk were amazing, I have always been in in business and customer service is everything. And they were wonderful. The bed was super comfortable with that said the rooms could use some attention as far as being spiffed up. it was a safe comfortable place to stay and I had no problems, and a nice little continental breakfast in the morning. Thank you .
