We never saw a staff member the floors creeped the ceilings Creek. Everything very dated doors do not lock unless you’re in the room minimal insulation and walls so you can hear conversations you can hear dogs walking in the hallway and through the ceiling. Our room was like the Willy Wonka grandparents room or the bed healed healed a toe Would not stay there again.

I was in need of a pet friendly accommodation as a stop over on a business trip to Buffalo, NY from Connecticut. I was actually given a room at their lakefront hotel as I was the only guest registered at the Baseball hotel for the evening. Not at all a problem for me. The hotel is older but has a charming, rustic quality to it. The staff at both the hotel and the restaurant were great. I will definitely be returning.

Unique location with a quiet, vintage vibe. Walls are thin and could be loud with a number of people other staying, but i had a delightfully quiet stay. Will stay again.

No-frills hotel

Funky old place, but clean and pretty quiet. Mostly a no-frills place, but location is good to Cooperstown and Glimmerglass. TV is all streamed, so the wi-fi was great.

Attractive old Adirondack building, but the rooms are small for the price, and they don’t serve breakfast. Very convenient for the Glimmerglass festival.

Horrible. Worse than you would ever think.

I have stayed in hundreds of hotels in my life including some very sketchy ones. This was the absolute worse one I’ve seen in my life. It was filthy and it was like going upstairs to the attic in an old house. We did not stay. I’m shocked that hotels.com lets this stay on their platform. If this was built to be a hotel, it was one built decades ago and never updated. I would like someone from hotels.com to contact me. I have pictures of the room I took before we left. The bathroom was like a utility closet. The windows look like they hadn’t been cleaned in years. (Even though this was the ground floor.). I know this was not refundable but this was a complete rip off.

NOT A HALL OF FAME EXPERIENCE

This was not HOTEL EXPERIENCE. It was like a B&B (Vrbo) without the Breakfast. More like a summer camp or hostel experience. There was NEVER NEVER ANYONE AT THE FRONT DESK. TO CHECK IN, I had to call a number and someone told me the key was on a hook beside the door- NOT HOTEL LIKE. The room was like a dormitory or summer camp room. It was just 3 queen beds stuffed into a small hotel sized room, no place to sit except on the beds or small desk with a chair. The bathroom was small with a small shower without a shower head. In addition, the “hotel” pictures on Hotel.com show a Lake Front area, therefore I was misled into thinking it was on a LAKE. Which it isn’t on or near a lake. There was supposed to be a restaurant and there was a menu on the front desk. However, the restaurant was never open and no staff ever seen. Because of all these experiences, ITherefore, I would like to have all my money refunded. If this situation is not rectified to my satisfaction I will assume that Hotels.com endorses this type of business practices. Therefore, I will not use Hotels.com again.
