When we arrived at the hotel we were told that after 8am there would be no electricity at the hotel. We all as customers should have been told ahead of time and given the opportunity to accept the terms or cancel our reservation. Had to walk down 2 flights of stairs with luggage no one could be found in the hotel to help. Horrible experience

It got the job done. Fairly clean and friendly staff. However, hotel is very dated. Pool and restaurant not operating. Rooms could use updating.

I was in the area for a family wedding. The church was down the street so we could have walked! The receptionist at The Marx was absolutely wonderful and friendly! Same in the morning! I met an employee in the elevator who was very helpful and friendly. She even took my key to return it.I will definitely stay at The Marx again! I highly recommend it! Thank you!

We had stains on our sheets. The room had a really weird/funny smell to it. The shower took forever to drain. There were cobwebs in the corners of the room. Dirt on the carpets like it was never vacuumed the closer you got to the wall. Just did not feel comfortable there whatsoever.

The Marx Hotel has a good location in downtown Oneonta. The Internet was good. During my one-night stay, I found the hotel to be clean. The free breakfast was decent - a batter to make waffles, English muffins, scrambled eggs, sausage, yogurt and orange juice. The hotel needs to be refurbished, but I got what I expected for the price. So I was satisfied overall with my stay.

Hotel is located very close to SUNY Oneonta. It’s clean but outdated. Could use an update. Has the potential to be a really nice hotel in a great location
