We've never stayed in an inn quite like the Gaffer Inn. There's no sign, no real personnel connected with it, and it's kind of like staying in a Speakeasy from Prohibition Days. You can only enter during your prepaid time period with a special code. To get to your room, you have to walk up steep steps behind an unmarked door in the front or a bit scary metal steps if entering from the rear. This place is not handicapped accessible and there is no one to help you with luggage or questions or recommendations. Nevertheless, why did I give this five stars? Well, once you get to your room, it is beautiful and clean. It was like having a nice studio apartment, interestingly decorated and equipped with everything you could need. This is not the place for anyone who likes cookie-cutter hotels or needs lots of additional services or feels uncomfortable with checking in and out without human contact. But, if you like unique hotels that are walkable to many of Corning's attractions and restaurants, I highly recommend the Gaffer Inn.

Can't wait to go back!
This place was amazing! It was right in the center of all of the shops, restaurants, and bars in Corning. It was within walking distance to the Museum of Glass as well. The room itself was very cozy with a fireplace and leather couches. Staff at the Beer & Burgers restaurant below the room were extremely friendly and helpful when checking in. Parking was not an issue as there were plenty of spaces in the lot behind the Inn. My wife and I had a wonderful weekend there! We'll be back!

What a fun place to stay. From the outside you didnt know what to expect. Once inside it was very different. It was like being in a very nice NY studio apartment. The exposed brick walls were great. Quirky little place. Though i would suggest a yellow caution strip on the front step into the street.

Had a great stay at the Gaffer Inn. Lovely room, stayed in the Majestic Suite, nice big room, very comfy bed and couches. Close to all amenities and the burger restaurant was delicious with a great variety of drinks. Highly recommend a stay at the Gaffer Inn if you’re in Corning for a night or two.

Our room was amazing! Very spacious and had everything you would need. Would love to stay here again just to stay in the room and enjoy it. (Water went out in the whole bldg so I wasn't able to get a shower. Other than that, everything was excellent)

Two small issues. Their entry system is new and needs a little work and the stairs to the 4 room inn is quite steep so be careful if you have mobility problems. The rooms were huge and well appointed and very quiet despite the fact that they were above a resto/bar.
