Staff at front desk was nery helpful - especially Millie. Our room was not cleaned during our stay, which was OK with us, but not requested. Bed was very comfortable. It was very noisy even at night, with carts rolling along the open hallways. Convenient location, good breakfast.

The room was clean and very comfortable. No issue with room as it is clear they do a very good job with them. The bed was comfortable and bathroom very clean. I can see that they are trying very hard with updated parking lot, plenty of lighting in parking area, safety features of locked doors to exterior entrances with key code access only. The price was good for what I got and staff was attentive when I raised an issue.

Located in a terrible neighborhood with multiple homeless people outside, the room was dirty and the tv wouldn't work. The front desk was zero help when asking multiple times and I finally had to move a very large desk, fridge area to find out the electrical cords were not plugged into the tv. Wouldn't recommend to anyone.

In town for the New York State Fair and this was a great convenient option. Very friendly staff and a good free breakfast. Lots of options such as waffles, eggs, sausage, hash browns and breads. Coffee could be a bit stronger. Free wifi. The rooms are clean and efficient with a microwave and mini fridge. The room had more than 1 roll of toilet paper which a family appreciates. The bathroom has a vent and nightlight. The free parking lot is secure and also hidden from the street. The DirectTV is a bit tricky to figure it out but it has a good selection of channels for kids. Also, you can cast your own videos from a mobile phone. On this trip, I accidentally left a personal belonging behind and the staff was very helpful. We will stay again the next time we attend the fair.
