Similar to others, we stayed here because of the price- not worth it.

The bed was really bad- uncomfortable, flat pillows and not enough of them and as another reviewer mentioned- holes in the blankets. The door didn't really seem to close which was a bit sketchy. The shower didn't have much pressure and the shower head was really low (even for me- and I'm not tall). Could hear the room next to us all night.

The good points: It did seem decently cleaned- not great, but I've stayed in worse. The location is great for the College and downtown. Wireless and microfrige in room.

This was my third time staying here and my last. I've been able to put up with the overall dinginess because it was cheap, but my experience this time changed all that. My bedsheets had cigarette burns in them (in a non-smoking room) and the overall feel of the room was that it was neat, but not necessarily clean. On my second night, as I pulled down the covers, I noticed what I thought were bedbugs. I could have been wrong, it might just have been dirt, but either way I was disgusted enough to leave. As I checked out late that night, the woman at the front desk actually began arguing with me that there were no bedbugs in the hotel. I didn't have it in me to argue back. I just left and won't return. Beware: you get what you pay for...

We chose to stay in Cortland as it is more affordable than Ithaca, but quite close to Ithaca. I did not expect much from a budget motel chain, and was surprised at how spacious the room was. It was very clean and the property seemed to be well maintained. The beds were comfortable. For those with a discerning eye, it was clear that when this property was new--probably around 1962--it was very high-class indeed. The brick work, the angled windows, and the terrazzo floors indicate that the construction was solid. I would guess that the paved parking area was originally a garden of some sort. The staff were helpful and friendly. The only negatives were that wifi was erratic in the room, and the "breakfast" was quite skimpy. But for the price I would say it is a very good value. Also it was very quiet.

We have stayed at this motel every time we have gone to Cortland. The rooms are always clean, The people at the front desk couldn't be more helpful whether the questions were directions to shopping or local attractions or restaurants. We have always been greeted with the warmest of smiles. On one of our visits, our car battery had come loose and we didn't have our regular toolkit ~ inasmuch as we were taking our son back to SUNY Cortland and were packed to the brim. Even though it was after 11 pm, the girl at the desk found tools and we were able to fix the car. We wouldn't stay anywhere else!
