Great view of lake. Internet services not working entire stay. No TV remote in room. Bathroom light flickering on and off. When we called staff somewhere before 9 PM no one answered the phone. Next morning they just brushed it off. Internet was still down and staff said they would tell house keeping about issues but didn’t bother to address immediately.

Hotel was just right. Had a great view of the lake and was easy to get places-but had to drive to all locations. Not a walkable area

I loved the view across the lake. I was very disappointed as one of the sites i looked at showed a pool. When i got there it was covered by a huge deck. Nice deck but no pool.

Nice little motel just a short drive to Watkins Glen State Park and local restaurants. The room was clean and comfortable, and the deck area was a great place to relax with a view of the lake. A peaceful and convenient spot for a Finger Lakes getaway!

Good value, clean and close to most attractions

This place is located 5 minutes from town for some great food choices, the theater was in town, swimming at the state park as well as parking to hike the gorge. Our room had been renovated recently but the facility itself looks outdated but looks like they’re in the middle of remodeling. The place was quiet we could not hear our neighbors. There’s a nice deck with chairs tables and benches to sit and watch the water. The was a good price for a clean just outta town place to stay. Definitely book the room with the view.

The woman who checked us in on her birthday was fabulous. She also worked the restaurant as well. Super friendly and informative. All of the staff were great. There a bonus with a band for fourth of July we didn't know about. Great overall experience.
