4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 September 2012

Rooms included hair dryers and refrigerator. A no frills hotel, clean and convenient and quiet.... We would stay there again. Nice parking lot and a fabulous ice cream parlor right across the street. Location was convenient to the harbor and state park gorge.

Enjoyed our stay - very clean and conveniently located on Rt 14. Short walk to the Watkins Glen gorge and about a mile to Seneca Lake. Restaurants and stores nearby. A very good value. Accepts AAA discount.

Rooms are small but clean. Bathroom has been updated. Was pricey for the size and amenities but it's a tourist area on a June weekend.

The room was a little old fashioned but clean & fine. Friendly staff. Good location, though the street can be busy, but it is not the interstate!!! Very good price, there is a AAA discount

This was a clean, basic hotel. Staff was friendly and very accommodating when extra towels and pillows were requested. Surprisingly quiet for how close to the road it was -- we were on the second floor so that may have helped.

I'm going to try to be generous by starting with the best things I have to say: The bed was reasonably comfortable. And I always check around beds for signs of bugs, and I saw no signs of them. That's important to me. Beyond that...our room was *tiny* -- very little room for our luggage and no closet or even... More

We were in Watkins Glen for a party at one of the Seneca Lake wineries. There was a lot going on this particular weekend and we could only find a room at this hotel as other places were booked. It is small, but very conveniently located. They are in the process of renovating, but our room had already been redone.... More
