The room was dated, but it was clean and comfortable. The Staff was a young Indian lady, I don't know if she could even speak English, but she confirmed our reservation and gave me the room key. We wanted to return the key to Check Out, nobody in the locked Office, so left the key in the room.

Booked standard apartment which was spacious and comfortable but this property needs some improvements and modernization. Stayed for two nights with no fresh towels or housekeeping service. Hot water in shower was very difficult to control, either too cold or too hot. The bed was old and way too soft.

The motel is good for the price and also it is pet friendly . The beds are comfortable and it is quiet to sleep. The area around the motel is beautiful with lots to do. There is some other nice amenities such as a larger room refrig and full size coffee maker. Good for one night and if you are on a budget.

Easy to unload and load up the car. The highway was noisy but once you were in the room you couldn’t hear it. Didn’t like a the notes in the room about how to get rid of the garbage and how to get clean towels. Beds were not made,coffe maker wasn't cleaned and neither were our coffee mugs.

I highly recommend This Inn. The refrigerator in the room was stocked with water and soda for a VERY minimal fee! So very worth it for convenience. The staff was so welcoming. The location is very close to all there is in town

Very dated motor lodge located a close driving distance to the village of Skaneateles, the only perk. The office is not regularly staffed. Stayed in room 4...room was basically clean. The bed and pillows need be replaced, bathroom was clean but tub is old, did not use. I believe faucets are well water, I used only bottled water for drinking and teeth brushing. The Inn only provides 2 bottles, others were $1 a piece, honor system. This location was all that was available for a last minute booking.

This is my 2nd time staying here, it was about the same. Overall it was nice, convenient for my purposes but very out of the way for food and entertainment. The water pressure still sucks but I guess that's what happens in more rural and country areas. I do not like the water in general; I find that it smells bad, and it smelled bad last time too. Also, if not using the shower head but rather the faucet in the tub, the water did not look clean. The staff were nice and checked to see if we needed any housekeeping or anything like that. It was also very good for the pricing; affordable and relatively comfortable.

Pictures did not portray what the property or rooms really looked like. Our key and personal paperwork were left on the counter in the office and no one was available at check in even though it was only 5:15 pm. Guest next store smoked and was very loud. Water in the faucet was extremely pungent. Overall the facility is very outdated; the grounds, the motel room and the bathroom. No staff was available to guests. However, the room was fairly clean.

An old (pre-Thruway) motel that has been refurbished. Very convenient to the attractions of Skaneateles but far enough away to be quiet.
