We reserved a king bed with a hot tub in the room but we didn’t get that. The bathroom and walls were stained and gross. The pictures of the website didn’t look anything like the actual hotel. I was really disappointed.

Hotel is very dated and dirty. Very loud, thin walls. TV was broken when we got in the room took an hour and 3 employees to fix it wasting time of out night when the hotel knew about the issue before I checked in. Would not recommend.

Floor wasn’t vacuumed. There was dirt and like stone or pebbles on it. The bottom of my feet were dirty from walking on it barefoot. We couldn’t get any hot water in shower. Very noisy. Staff was outside our room in the morning hours talking loudly with lone another using profanities. I will definitely not stay there again and will not recommend it. Property is very run down.

ChatGPT said: Breakfast is pretty light, but there are some great spots nearby that open early and serve an awesome breakfast. The best part though—those beds and pillows are insanely comfortable. I honestly felt like asking where they get them :) Bottom line: For the price, this place is a great deal. Perfect if you’re not planning to hang around all day and just need a super comfy spot to crash for the night. That’s exactly what we were looking for, and this hotel totally delivered.

The property was an older Days Inn, was clean and staff was friendly. I did have a problem with the shower dripping and brought that to their attention, which they will rectify after my stay (plumbing problem). Breakfast was non existent. The location was great for what we were doing.

This hotel should be condemned, as the room was dirty, holes in rug, window was broken with a piece of steel holding it shut. Pictures on line were completely different then how the actual room was. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone!

I left the hotel room after an hour. The amount of bugs on the walls and in/under the bed was shocking. If Hotels.com does not refund my money I will contest credit card charge. They should be ashamed allowing this place to advertise on this site. WOW!!

Cayuga Inn at the Finger Lakes not how it appears

Very expensive for the poor condition of hotel. Rust and mold in room and bathroom. Lock broken on door. Comfortable bed, roomy. Didn’t have breakfast— two chairs in lobby and meager offering of food. Gentleman at front desk very responsive to have repair man fix TV twice; shower faucet not labeled, trouble getting hot water.
