considering the occupancy rate when we were there, the quietness in and around our room was very good. the breakfast menu is excellent. Not just continental fare like much of your competition. Front desk staff and all other in-house support staff were great. Only thing we found that needs attention (room 202) and maybe others was the shower curtain. There's only one panel to the curtain which needs to remain inside the tub, but there's usually a second panel that goes outside the tub. the combination of the two does a much better job of keeping water from going outside the tub and getting the floor wet. I've seen the two panel setup work very well at other installations that we've stayed at.

It was conveniently located off the highway while we were driving from NYC to Niagara. Needed good sleep and breakfast although I’m not a fan of the powdery dehydrated eggs. (Am a little spoiled by Holiday Inn Express eggs). Room was decent for a night stay.

Bathroom was very dirty. You can see that housekeeping was horrible. Bedsheets were wrinkled and untidy. The place was decorated poorly. Carpets were old. Toilet paper roll was a leftover roll from before and there was not even an extra new roll. Toilet bowl was also very dirty. White towels were yellow! Extremely unsatisfied with the standard.

We did not like the fact that the bathtub was way past filthy - thick brown "ring" around tub - drain clogged with a great deal of hair. We also did not like that the room was not cleaned or serviced during our stay.

The room was not the cleanest. I cleaned and wiped down all surfaces with lysol wipes. The temperatures outside was in the upper 90's. I set the thermostat in our room to 70 each day and each day we would return to our room and it would be hotter and the thermostat would show 88 or above although it was set on 70. It would take the room 4 to 5 hours to cool down to the temp set on the thermostat. I asked the staff and after numerous complaints was told that the thermostat has a motion detect sensor and if there was no movement in the room, it was turned off. So, while we were thinking we were going to return to a room that was a cool 70 degrees, we returned to a room that had no a/c all day and was slow to cool down. On Wednesday, 06/25, we returned to the room and waited until almost 2 am for the room to cool down to 74 degrees. It was a horrible stay. We had the room booked from 06/22 to 06/30, we were told we had to ask for housekeeping otherwise they wouldn't service the room. My husband and I took out the trash and cleaned our room each day.

Disappointing! Location was convenient. Breakfast bar was good. Cleaning and maintenance were overall unacceptable. Filth (not just dirt) in corners of the bathroom. No fresh towels all week (so they also were never dry in the humid climate). I'm a mechanical person, so there were lots of little things that bothered me... drawers that didn't close easily, lamp with problems, noisy heater, etc. Toilet was made for children... not 80-year olds! Very short! Toilet was not properly cleaned (wish I had taken a picture!) Not the worst place l've stayed, but pretty unacceptable for a professional lodging venue, and for the price. Breakfast was decent, but nothing to brag about. However the young lady that was running the breakfast was absolutely outstanding. Very hard worker that did it all! Setting up, cleaning. I presume she wasn't cooking, but if she did, she deserves a raise in pay! Probably the very best and hard working person at this facility! Always cleaning tables, replenishing the buffet... 5 Stars for the buffet employee. 2 stars for the cleaning staff and maintenance staff

The outside and lobby areas were very clean, but the rooms. Layers of dist on the nightstand, telephone, clock and behind the nightstand and wall. One blind didnt work (broken). Other than that, a nice hotel.
