Hit the right spot
We arrived late in the evening, after 11 pm, the staff was present, awake, and helpful showing me the back door so I could access the room quickly with my children. The room was very spacious, shockingly so, and fit my small family. For the price and the space this room was close to perfect. The free breakfast only helped, the free internet was also nice. Only takeaway if any was the lack of choice at breakfast. The staff even had a wine opener! Great experience!

Nice Hotel
Only stayed here one night but I would definitely come back. Everything was very clean, everything worked and I liked that the rooms were fairly large. It was nice that it had a steakhouse attached to the restaurant. One negative that I would say is that it's further from the city of Syracuse than I thought it was. But if you're going to something at the Fairgrounds this is a must-stay.

Short drive from hotel
Try out Dinosaur BBQ in the city of Syracuse. From the Inn At The Fairgrounds, it's probably not even a 10 minute drive. Excellent food and service.

Horrible Experience
This was the worst hotel experience I ever had. First, we were put into a "Non-Smoking Room" that smelled like the bottom of an ash tray. We were moved to another "Non-Smoking Room" directly next door which was marginally better, but still awful...Ironically most rooms on the floor had "Non-Smoking Room" signs, but not the ones we had. In addition, the room was directly over the bar/function area where a band played until after midnight. we were told the hotel was full and could not move. However, we saw very few people that night, the next morning and the next day. There were never any cars in the parking lot either. Very strange for a hotel. More disturbing is the discrimination that was evident and on display which I believe prompted the room choice by staff. We were blatantly lied to on more than one accasion as my handicapped child and her certified working service dog were not welcome at this place. We had to fight to have them let us stay.

didnt have a room for us
We had a confirmation for this hotel through orbits...when we got there they said it was cancelled. We never cancelled this room and it was ironic that there wasn't a manager on duty the whole weekend

Very convenient and comfortable
This was a nice hotel for the price. However, the room smelled like smoke (badly) even tough I requested non-smoking. Otherwise it was comfortable and clean.

Not adequate
I requested a non-smoking room and didn't get it. Yuck! My room was right over the restaurant where a band was playing until late. Double yuck. The location was good - close to but not right on the I690 freeway. I was glad I only had a one night stay.

great value
Took a chance based on reviews from multiple websites and was very happy with the overall product. Stayed at Maplewood last time and for $20 cheaper I thought it was a much better value. Nice clean rooms. Super clean bathrooms with ceramic tile floors. They have an exercise room that could use some improvement. The breakfast is much better than Maplewood but could use some fresh fruit selections.

The Edman
Inn at the Fair grounds
I've have stayed here on many occasions as I do business in Syracuse, N.Y. It is very clean and the rooms are comfortable with TV and Wi-Fi access. The best part of the hotel is the attached restaurant called "Daniella's" which has excellent food especially their steaks. It is also in close proximity to downtown Syracuse. If you stay there be sure to also check out Dinosaur Bar - B - Q in downtown Syracuse!

Short Stay
Due to a flight cancelation we did not get to hotel until 3 AM. The girl at the desk was very nice and understanding. Left the next day by check out time. So our stay was very short.
