Before booking this hotel I read a lot of mixed reviews about how dated the property is but I took my chances and ofcourse regretted booking it. First of all I booked a room for 3 adults, one tween and a teen. The room had 2 full size bed which sleeps 2 adults but very uncomfortable! The sheets were stain and looked dirty ! I had to go back to reception to get them changed and to also request a “roll out bed!! I also had to request towels because they didn’t have enough for 5 people!! If a room is booked for 5 people - I shouldn’t have to ask for another bed and towels and sheets!! Terrible place!!

The worst place I have ever stayed. I honestly wish we wld have just left! So dirty and in desperate need of repairs. Faucet fell off in my hand when I turn on the water. Shower curtain was stained and torn in multiple places. Lamp shades torn n stained. Cabinet beside fridge was filthy. I would NOT recommend. So upset that we wasted our money on this place!!!

The hotel was dated and had a musty smell. We had a jacuzzi as our tub and was very difficult to get in and out of the shower. The ceiling paint was following out. The place is so old that needs to be demolished and redone.

The sheets didn’t look like they’d been changed on one of the beds, unfortunately. For being at the heart of Main Street I am surprised to find that the facilities weren’t more updated - we’re only here one night before the tournament starts tomorrow, so not a huge deal, but I would not return.

The hotel is extremely under maintenanced. The carpets had questionable stains, the ceiling had mold and was chipping right about the beds were you lay down. The grounds outside of the hotel were also not maintained well. And the entire hotel had a very moldy odor. And the breakfast was a total joke. Especially for $300/night. I was totally ripped off.

Had a short stay to visit the museums and attractions in Cooperstown. The hotel was about a half hour from Cooperstown and away from the crowds. The pool was closed. The hotel smelled a bit musty and some fixtures need to be updated but it was clean and comfortable. Plenty of places to eat within walking distance.

Staff was super friendly, but the hotel itself needed some TLC and/or renovation. Has potential to be a beautiful property. As a side note, there is a train with a very loud whistle/horn that will run through multiple times a night. It will wake you up. I wish I knew this before booking...
