An easy walk to the pink lot to pick up the walking trail to the concert venue. On site restaurant is a little pricey, but worth every penny. Seriously. Nice upgrades to the hotel.

My husband and I stayed here during an event in Syracuse. The room for 3 nights was over $1,000.00. We check in and find there was no longer a shuttle service we planned to use. The hotel room was okay. Outdated but spacious. Smelled of smoke, several light bulbs out and the tub faucet was broken. Very few amenities but the on site steakhouse was phenomenal and probably the only thing this hotel has going for it.

The hotel lobby, hall-ways, and room were all hot. It took a couple of hours to cool the room down to where we could sleep. The ice machine on our floor was broken. The Fitness Room smelled like a cat had been locked inside for days; I couldn’t go inside the room it was so bad. Glad I was warned by another guest. The breakfast was not much but got us on the road.
