Short one night stay
The front desk employee Peter was very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately when we arrived and went to our room, we discovered that it hadn’t been cleaned. Peter was quick to find us a new room. Decor was a little dated but overall neds were comfortable.

Full Breakfast and a GF muffin, too!
This was a quick overnight while on the road to somewhere else but the pool, room and breakfast and friendly service were all great. we wish all their properties offered that good a breakfast. Among the sausage and omelets, they even had a udi's gluten free muffin. Lovely!

Convenient and well priced
A good place to stay as we drove through NY State, comfortable beds and amenities (we have a 3yr old and she loved the pool) Breakfast was convenient but not very ecofriendly with lots of single-use plastics.
