We were generally pleased

The room had an odd smell to it; whether it was musty/mildew or from cleaning products, I'm not sure. However, it didn't cause any allergic symptoms. I kept the windows open during the day to try to freshen the air, but it didn't help much. Also, the sink drain was slow. Other than these things my friend and I were pleased and would stay there again.

Peaceful Stay by the Lake

This modest motel lived up to expectations for a short stay while in Cooperstown. The room was clean and contained a small refrigerator and microwave. The property is well maintained and the view of Lake Otsego is picturesque. The property has an outdoor grill and ice machine, and just a short drive into the Village of Cooperstown provides access to restaurants and retail shopping. I would stay there again when visiting Cooperstown.

This was a gem of a place to find. It was small and lovely. The room felt like a cabin on the lake. The walk to the lake was easy and the lakefront area was perfect. The staff was lovely and so helpful and kind.

Cozy in Cooperstown

Our room was very comfortable and clean. Double beds were great for both of us. Water in shower became increasingly hot, and that was somewhat concerning. Hostess was friendly and thorough at check-in. Will definitely return here in future trips to this area!

Room is very small. Brochure said breakfast and lake front but there was no breakfast and it was lake view. Lake was not easy access. Rooms are not worth the money.

The room smelled terrible. It must have been some cheap cleaning solution. I almost couldn’t sleep because of the smell. Would never stay again.

Unprofessional staff, quaint hotel

Sadly, the power was out in our hotel when we returned at night day two. That meant no lights, no air, and no running water (well). Unable to reach mgmt, office closed and no communication via email, phone or door of room, we were left with no choice but to leave and get another hotel room. There was absolutely no word from the mgmt to our numerous calls or emails, and with the busy schedule of cooperstown dreams park, that left us no choice but to continue our stay at the new hotel. When contact was finally made with mgmt, they acted as if it was no big deal, they claimed they had no phone service, and “what was the 22 year old desk manager to do at 9pm when it happened?” They continued to gaslight us and act as if it was our fault for wanting communication from the mgmt as to the situation. We were guests that had no way to reach any person to help us, nor the power company to call. Regardless of what others at the hotel did, for medical reasons we needed air and running water. When we asked for a refund, the mgmt denied us. They denied Hotels.com a refund resolution. The front desk staff was unknowledgeable, unpleasent and extremely unprofessional. We were sad to have had to make the decision to leave, as the hotel was quaint, if not a little dated. More than that, we had to pay almost 2x as much at the hotel with lights, water and air.

All right, but the basic

This hotel was basic. The beds and pillows were a girl tells your grade but overall it’s not a high class area. We were there for baseball Hall of Fame and for the money of $400 a night it was not worth it but it is four this weekend.
