    great times
    low price
    fridge and microwave
    poor lighting

    Had a great time with friends! We hiked Watkins Glen and visited the Corning Museum of Glass. The low price was perfect for us, and we appreciated the fridge and microwave in our room. It's a simple place but had everything we needed for a fun getaway.

    The only downside was that the parking lot wasn't well lit, which made it a bit challenging to find our car at night.

    safe family
    clean rooms
    weak wifi
    confusing towels

    The place had a great vibe, felt safe for family. Clean rooms but I couldn't find towels immediately. Wish wifi was better! Overall, a decent stopover. 😊

    charming exterior
    scenic backdrop
    dated room

    Location near local attractions like Watkins Glen State Park draws in outdoor enthusiasts looking for adventure. Charming exterior features a pleasant backdrop, making it an appealing spot for those wanting a scenic photo op.

    Room condition varies significantly. ours felt dated and lacked cleanliness with signs of wear. The lack of functioning TV and inadequate bathroom amenities detracted from comfort. Parking showed evidence of neglect, with damaged vehicles cluttering the lot. While the internet connection was strong, outlets were limited, creating challenges for charging devices in today’s tech-driven world. The pricing felt stretched, especially when observing nearby empty rooms offered at lower rates after our first night.

    cozy atmosphere
    comfy bed
    pool access
    dated areas

    I was pleasantly surprised by the cozy atmosphere and the comfy bed that made it easy to unwind after a long day. The pool was great for relaxing, and the fitness center offered a nice way to stay active. While some areas looked a bit dated, it didn’t take away from my overall good experience. just be sure to check out the local attractions nearby! 😊

    comfy bed
    hot water
    lobby coffee
    outdated bathroom

    Old but not awful

    This place has a certain vibe from back in the day. The room I had was painted nicely, and the bed was comfy. Water got super hot too, which was a plus! But man, the bathroom was kinda stuck in the past—definitely not up to par. Coffee in the lobby was nice, though!
