This hotel is in serious need of attention. Many of the common areas were visibly dirty, with stains on both the floors and walls. In one hallway, I noticed a fire alarm hanging loosely from the wall. This was just one of several safety violations I observed as someone who trains others in OSHA compliance. My initial room (130) had clear signs of water damage on the ceiling and felt damp throughout. Worse, I discovered spiders crawling on me while I slept and found spider egg sacs in multiple corners. I was moved to Room 128 the next morning, which didn’t have the same spider issue, but was still damp, had a strong mildew smell, and dirty floors. Although I wanted to check out early, the city was completely booked due to a local event. This made the experience even more frustrating. The general manager, or the woman I believe to be the general manager, was unprofessional. She repeatedly sat in the back office and refused to assist waiting guests when the front desk clerks were away helping others. On one occasion, another guest and I waited nearly 10 minutes before she reluctantly came out to assist us. On my checkout day, I requested a late checkout due to a delayed flight and was told I had to pay $40 because “the hotel was really busy.” As a Choice Rewards member who had dealt with multiple issues during my stay, I found this response especially disappointing. The only reason this review isn’t a 1-star is because the evening and morning front desk clerks were amazing

accessible means more than a grab bar or two

i have stayed here many times. loved it. this time my friend needed an accessible room. i had to rearrange the furnitiure to be able to enter the bedroom with his wheelchair. the photo online showed a handheld shower attachment on a hose. althought there was a shower bench and grab bars in the tub. the shower head was fixed high in the shower stall., making rinsing oneself impossible while seated on shower bench. breakfast excellant with attentive staff

Very nice hotel minutes outside of Utica so very convenient if visiting Utica. Very quiet. Staff friendly and helpful. Pub bar type restaurant with good food. Pool looked lovely and clean even though we did not use it many people were out enjoying it.

This property looks beautiful but the hotel stinks. Our room smelled old and musty, my daughters allergies were so bad that she couldn't sleep. The breakfast was great. The pool was so dirty that the kids jumped in and back out very quickly.

As always this is a pleasant hotel to stay at. Staff is great and location to my parents home remains unbeatable. One of the secured entrances didnt unlock when the keycard reader was engaged. That was a bit inconvenient but overall not a buzz killer.

Property is at a convenient location. Lobby hasn’t changed in as long as I’ve been using this motel. Parking is plentiful and convenient. Room is clean and adequate. There is hardly any light in the room. I went to heat up my coffee but needed to get MY FLASHLIGHT to read CONTROLS.

Decent hotel. Friendly staff, nice outdoor pool, usual hotel breakfast buffet. We did change rooms once, 1st room was very humid, maybe due to proximity to the pool. Second room was upstairs and 100% better. Would stay here again. Industrial park location which made for a quiet stay (weekend stay).

The pool was dirty no one ever cleaned it, on Saturday night there was a party at the hotel with a bunch of rowdy kids looking to intimidate and start confrontations with the guests. They also trashed the bathrooms and areas around the hotel. Harassed the staffers and heard someone say there were weapons involved.don’t know why the police weren’t called! This was not acceptable
