David the concierge at the front desk was engaging, entertaining, knowledgeable and friendly. The “pour your own” beer, cider and wine taps were awesome. Will definitely stay again.

What a great place! We were greeted but the nicest man.(I am terrible remembering names). He explained everything to us. Clean. Had everything we needed. Our room had a stove, refrigerator and microwave. The water pressure was excellent in the shower. Walk to Cornell. The beds were so comfortable. We were well rested to enjoy the days on campus. Will definitely stay again.

Joanne the manager and her staff are hard working and do everything to make your stay here comfortable and easy! Great location to walk to campus. Easy parking. Warm during winter.
