Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The surface was clean BUT the carpeting was filthy. There was no screen on back window preventing getting a cross breath to alleviate the very musty spell when first entering room. Had 4 pillows - 2 were filthy. Had there been pillow covers, not just pillow cases, that could be changed there may not have been that issue. The water control in bathroom and shower need fixing/updating.No plug for tub so can’t use as a tub. Curtains dirty and falling off tract. At least shower curtain was clean and towels were very plush. Towels were replaced and bed made daily. The filter on the air conditioner, the controls, and freezer were dirty. Continental bfst. was store bought powdered donuts or a muffin with coffee. Really !!!

Close to town but quiet and relaxing. Pool, gazebo and some rockers outside your door for enjoying. Danish type things and coffee are only options. Fine for us. Beds were great.

Interesting Place

Definitely was a 2-3 star facility. Had cracked plaster/paint on the walls, toilet seat was broken in my room, AC unit couldn't keep the room below 70 on a hot (above 80° day). Had a HD/HDMI tv but no HDMI cord, had to buy one at Walmart to hook my laptop to the TV for movies. Thought the place was a bix expensive for the condition of it...guess your paying for the 15 minutes to Watkins Glen International

Very nice place, only issu was the "breakfast included". The breakfast they provide was hostess sinle wrapped danishes, muffin and mini donuts. No fruit, bagel, eggs, toast, nothing but the pre packaged sugary treats. Orher than that, was a very nice, spacious room.

This is an old-style motor lodge one would find on a U.S. Highway in the 50s or 60s. The decor shows it. If you are seeking a fancy, glitzy resort, go elsewhere. If you want a clean, safe, convenient hotel, go here. The staff are friendly. The rooms are clean, but dated. They service the room every day! And restock your coffee! The wifi is iffy, but I think that’s a Glen problem, not theirs. Our fire stick only had some lagging. The breakfast is packaged muffins, which was great for us as we grabbed and went to WGI. Want a full spread? Go to one of the diners a 3 minute drive into town. Pool was clean, a rarity among higher priced chain motels even. Your kids will love it. We already made plans to stay for the 2026 6 Hours. The place is amazingly close to WGI. Did I mention the friendly staff?

The motel is very dated, could use a newer mattress, but the room was clean; not a bad stay for what it is (an older roadside motel), but was way overpriced (I assume due to it being the Cornell graduation weekend in nearby Ithaca).
