Don’t let the exterior detour you. If your looking for a comfortable and clean place to lay your head, this it! So budget friendly and all of the staff is so attentive. Even with my daughter’s food allergies. We will definitely stay here again for our next Cornell visit. Thank you for a restful stay!

Room and linens were super clean. Staff were all super friendly and accommodating. Continental breakfast is next level good. Coffee is very good quality. And a pool, small business center, and close proximity to everything? Hot water and with a bathtub and not just a shower stall? This place is great!
