Ardsley Acres was "OK" for us because it had good value for the price paid, was quiet and near to the places we wanted to visit next (Wave Hill and the NY Botanical Gardens.) It is a little hard to find, so map it out on the computer or use your GPS. The staff was very polite, and the breakfast a bit above average, although no place to sit in the lobby. The place seems to be in two buildings, one older style and the other brick faces that looked maybe nicer from the outside. In Sept 09 the brick faced building was being used by students from a nearby college, but there was absolutely no problem in this, all had great deportment, and no partying.
Your room may be a bit worn, so don't expect the Ritz.
