The rooms aren't really designed for business, the working/sitting areas in the rooms is minimal (I've stayed in about 6-7 different rooms). Beds are fine, shower is straight down from the ceiling

Let’s start with the positives. This was a super unique and cool hotel to stay in. It was very clean, updated, and the person running the front desk while we were there was super nice. Now for the big negative - you can hear EVERYTHING and I don’t just mean the usual noise in a hotel.

The Dorm Hotel has undergone a major refurbishment, the bedrooms albeit quite small are well equipped (air conditioning, electricity, good shower). The staff is very helpful and friendly. Free coffee and teabags are offered and there is a choice of snacks and alcoholic beverages. I highly recommend the hotel to anyone looking to visit friends or relatives studying at Cornell University.
