After paying a higher amount than the surrounding hotels I was surprised at the state of this hotel. There was not enough hot water for 2 of us to shower and the foot stool in our room was decrepit (see photo). We actually checked out one day early despite having paid $299 for the night.

It was ok. If you’re going to a PBR tournament in Cortland, it’s location is perfect. I don’t have anything bad to say - it was on the shabbier side - but it was a clean comfortable place to sleep. nothing special. FYI, the “hot breakfast” promised was powdered eggs & make your own waffle. Otherwise it was a fridge with yogurts & some prepackaged muffins.

when we checked in there were still dirty linens in our room. The breakfast buffet didn't have coffee. Our room was never cleaned and we had to ask at the desk everyday for clean towels.

Certainly! Here's a positive review for the Best Western in Cortland: Excellent Stay at Best Western in Cortland! I had a wonderful experience at the Best Western in Cortland. The hotel has a very welcoming and attractive appearance from the outside, and the interior is just as impressive. The rooms are modernly furnished, clean, and incredibly comfortable — perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring or attending events at SUNY Cortland. The location is also very convenient, just a short drive to the university and nearby attractions. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure all our needs were met. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Cortland — whether for business, leisure, or a quick getaway. I look forward to staying here again!
