Amazing value for the price, the rooms are recently remodeled and very clean. Fast internet (cell phone reception is sketchy in the area). Breakfast is adequate. Each room has a fridge and a microwave. Good water pressure. Minutes to Cornell campus, will definitely be back.

It is a motel, so it was very convenient because you park right outside your room. It was very clean. I think they allowed pets because when we checked in, they asked if we had one. I would stay here again.
