For the price you pay, it's a quaint little hotel! It was clean, comfortable and quiet! The staff was friendly and checked in with us often. The breakfast didn't have any hot options other than waffles and bagels, but it was still a nice spread for being included in the price. This was our second stay, and it was overall a great experience!

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,
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!
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)!
It’s a simple place but is convenient, comfortable and affordable. Perfect place for me.

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.
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!
Wallpaper was peeling in bathroom. Faucet in shower sprayed/leaking from handle of shower, and water was barely warm enough to shower.
The staff was amazing and the only positive thing I can say about our stay.

This is an older property in need of updating. The toilet ran very long, the bathroom fan was loud and took a while to come on and the hall carpet was worn to the floor underneath in places.
But the front desk staff was very kind and helpful. They were terrific!
