Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The only 2 positive things I can say about this hotel, but they are big positives, is that the beds were comfortable and the hotel room was clean. For the negatives: 1. It is very old, the hotel itself, room furniture, etc. 2. The pictures are deceiving from the website, it is not new looking in any aspect. 3. Room access is outdoors only, like a motel. I either overlooked that, or they had some clever photography hiding that fact !!! 4. The “breakfast”, touted as excellent, etc, did not appear appetizing at all, burnt what looked like turkey bacon, and 1 container of unappetizing eggs and hash browns, and bread in a container that stays out all day; not sure how that could remain “fresh”. 5. Staff that is not very polite, to the point of not even speaking back when you say “hi” to them. If it was not a hassle to fight with Expedia for a prepaid registration, I would have cancelled my reservation immediately upon walking into the lobby. I will never stay there again and do not recommend it.

This property was subpar. Beds very very soft and warn, heater in room very loud, toilet filling and emptying all night, smoke alarm blinking a bright light all night, traffic noise constantly. The breakfast looked completely inedible, did not even attempt. If you are looking for a quick overnight stay and noise and super warn beds don’t bother you, than you’ll be fine.

Well-renovated two-story motel in tired neighborhood in Syracuse city featured welcoming/courteous reception staff, an absolutely clean/comfy room, and reasonable fee. Unfortunate crack in newish step-in shower floor didn’t deter our stay, but needs repair. Comfortable bed, responsive HVAC. Convenient access from highways. Quiet area. Exterior needs refreshing upgrade to match the excellent interior upgrade.
