What a great find. Nice rooms, great price and very clean. Prefer my own pillow, but got a great nights sleep and the staff great. Right off the highway. Great restaurant Delmonico's right next door.

Stay here regularly for business as I have a customer in the area, and am never disappointed. The rooms are typical Red Roof rooms, always clean and well laid out. This one is a little older and can show it's age, but in the end as long as it is clean, comfortable, and a value, that's what matters most.

Very easy to get to from the thruway, a couple of restaurants within walking distance, and a lot more options within a 3-5 minute drive. Internet is very good.

The only drawback is the occasional lack of availability. This hotel can get sold out quickly in construction season and on at least one occasion it was used as an overflow for a local college when the dorms were full. That isn't meant as a slight on the guests, they are very good, just as an observation on how quickly the hotel can fill up.

If you only need a place to sleep, Red Roof is the place to stay. Rates are very reasonable, rooms are clean and stafff is friendly and helpful. Close to NYS Thruway. If you are seeking a little entertainment, Turning Stone Resort and Casino in Verona, NY, about a 20 minute drive from hotel.

I stumbled across the red roof inn in Utica just wanting to spend the night after driving the NY state thruway for hours. Easy on and off the highway. Lots off food places near by. What shocked me was how neat and clean it was for the price. $55 with my AAA discount! Unbelievable. The staff were friendly and efficient, room was clean, bed was comfortable. How can this be???? But, it is. Highly recommended for a place to lay your head.
