4/10 Fair

Deceptive
Will not be staying there again. Very dated and needs a tremendous amount of TLC. Clogged drains, significant mold, misuse of extension cords and power strips. New owners have their hands full with this money pit and we wish them luck, but their photographs are misleading and deceptive.

2/10 Poor

Stink bugs.
The room I booked looked nothing like the pictures provided of other rooms. Outdated, cold (they did have a space heater in the room, but did nothing for the bathroom). As I slid into the bed I felt something crawling on my leg, to find it was a stink bug. That was just the beginning… over the next 30-45 minutes I had found over a dozen more stink bugs throughout the room. I had enough so I called property management. They ended up moving us to the Skaneateles Inn next door in which at quick glance was much more cleanly. But upon waking up in the morning I found another stink bug in the bathroom. I booked this place because of the price point and decent numerical rating, however I would not recommend staying here.

Found this bucket under my bed, dusty with dead bugs surround it

Okay for one night
Room/cabin had rustic looks, antique style bed and decor. Bathroom was small and needed some TLC. Shower was small, box style. Price was a little high for what you get. But reviews were better than other hotels in the area.

10/10 Exceptional

Clean, comfortable, reasonably priced
We wanted a reasonably priced stay near Auburn and this was it. The place is definitely older and there’s no fix for that, but it was scrupulously clean and very comfortable. The staff was polite and accommodating and our room was quiet, even though I think the place was full. The bed was very comfortable. It felt like a throwback to an older time, but with AC and a fridge. Would stay again.

4/10 Fair

The proprietor was friendly, but the publicized breakfast was not available. That was a perk offered by the prior proprietor, we were told. The door to our room couldn’t be locked, and both the heat and the air conditioning were on at the same time. The shower curtain was soiled on the bottom and there were many suspicious dark spots (mold?) on the shower walls. However, the king bed was very comfortable and it was wonderfully quiet!

Don't book this place! It is dirty and decrepit and there is no service and no one at the office. It feels unsafe to stay here. On the day we left there was a creepy person hanging out in their car all morning. AVOID!!

We motorcycle across Northeast America 🇨🇦 🇺🇸 and love to find original places to stay. This «roadside » motel was perfect with its vintage feel. Loved it.

Sheets didn’t fit. But staff replaced the next morning. Also no fire alarm. The owner got one for us the next days. Cleaning staff said none had fire alarms in the units. But we did have a ring to but the alarm in. Owner was very helpful. I would stay for short term again. But would make sure they had a afire alarm

Good price for the area
Tons of other people’s hair in the bathroom. Gross. The girl at the front desk was super friendly. The rooms are like stepping back to the 70’s or 80’s, electric baseboard heating, and all. If you want to be close enough to the touristy area, without it costing an arm and a leg, this is a good choice. Hopefully, you’re doesn’t come with complimentary stranger hairs in the bathroom.

Older hotel that needs updating. Small bathroom. Met our needs for an overnight stay, but was expensive for what was provided.
