Nice central jumping off spot for Finger Lakes adventures. Clean and quiet. Wouldn't have minded a dedicated work space, but other than that, it was a nice stay.

Typical old-style motel with drive-up parking and lines of rooms. Clean but very dated. Disappointed in that the room right next to ours was rented, despite the fact that there were numerous other rooms available. We had to listen to late-night and early morning TV through the thin walls. Why weren't the other people placed in other rooms away from ours?
