Cliffside State Forest Hotels

"Great place we will be back next year!"

"Weird vibe"

"Lots of cockroaches!! Not a place to go back to."

"Front desk staff was very helpful and friendly. The room had a very strong smell of whatever air freshener they use to cover odors. The windows don’t open, so I couldn’t even air it out. Shampoo, conditioner, and soap in the shower were almost completely empty. I guess they didn’t check any of them. Parking is a bit of a headache and inconvenience. You have to have your ticket validated every time you leave. Coffee machine in lobby was broken. That was the biggest downfall for me. Walking distance to everything. There were pros and cons. But I wouldn’t stay here again. I’ve stayed at other hotels in the area that I would rather choose again."

"Apparently we were assigned the handicapped access room (not requested) it was at the very end of a long hallway which is used by the staff as the laundry room (always full of carts of clean and dirty laundry, to the point it is difficult to walk; certainly would be inaccessible if you were in a wheel chair). Breakfast marginal, most foods are in wall mounted dispensers, no variety or change from day to day. Lots of parking though."

"Staff are very friendly. Breakfast is good; really enjoy speaking with the breakfast staff. Nice property, my first choice when visiting Ithaca."

"Front desk had fresh cookies!"

"Breakfast menu was fresh, with variety to choose from. Room cleanliness, and quietness was on point, friendly staff. Parking spaces a little narrow to my like. Everything else was great!"

"I stayed at the dorm hotel, visiting my daughter at Cornell. The first night I was there. The room had a generator outside there was no way I could sleep. I had to attend a few functions at the next day. Completely exhausted. Thankfully, they put me in a different room the following night and I was finally able to sleep. Overall, the dorm hotel is very clean and very convenient. If I were the manager, I would have handed out a discount for another visit for how uncomfortable that first room was, but they did not. I’m not sure. I’ll stay there again, but it is very clean and we taken care of."
