Liked: Cleanliness
The motel was very clean however very dated, especially the exterior. Since it was so close to the highway, I worried about car theft, as well as someone breaking into our room with the outside door. The inside was clean, but again, dated.
Stayed with my 2 little ones and felt so lucky to find such a clean comfortable place to stay. Owners are so welcoming and have it loaded with extras upon entering room with snacks and waters. Everything is spotless. In the morning they have a coffee bar with muffins and oatmeal. Highly recommend.
Great location, well maintained, clean, affordable and the staff member was friendly. My only concern was that the interior of the main door to the room did not have another layer of safety, which would be a lock from the inside only.The door only has a deadbolt, so anyone with a spare key or ability topic the lock would be able to enter. I would suggest an inside bar lock. Otherwise it was a great place and we would stay again.
The staff were very hospitable. Although breakfast was not listed as an amenity, the hotel staff provided fruit, granola bars and muffins. The rooms are clean.
This is the perfect place to stay if you are looking for a clean, no frills place to stay. The upgrades are nice and really create a comfortable space. The location was perfect for us to visit our Syracuse student and also to venture into Skaneateles. The owner provides lots of thoughtful extras that make you feel welcome and glad you came. Good old fashioned personal service which is refreshing in todays world.
The room was VERY small with a musty odor. There were insufficient towels and what was there were old and threadbare. The worse thing was we came back from a wedding rehearsal dinner, and I went to put on my pajamas that were hanging on a hook in the bathroom and they were soaking wet…..like they had been put under a shower! Very disappointed at this accommodation. Now I see why it is fairly cheap. You get what you pay for.

Great motel.
Great little no-frills motel. Served the purpose for a quick weekend trip. Snacks an added bonus! And don't let the bed deceive you. Quite comfortable!
