Great stay

We had a fabulous stay. The location is very close to everything downtown. We did not try the breakfast but we went to Rise and Shine diner and it was absolutely amazing. I absolutely loved the full length mirror that hid the closet.

I stayed here because its 0.5mi from syracuse half marathon startline. I was able to walk easily from hotel to start line of the race. Room was clean and quiet. Staff friendly, professional and accomodating. Nice simple continental breakfast. Parking was easy. I would highly recommend this hotel, especially for runners coming out of town to run the syracuse half marathon!

Good for a night

Stayed here for a single night. The heat hadn’t been set for our room so it was freezing upon arrival. We had requested another blanket and it was never brought. Bed was comfortable and room was otherwise nice.

The property is fine - very average. Staff was friendly and super helpful which is always a plus. The front door being locked all the time and needing to be buzzed in - not so great feeling. Breakfast was very basic, a small step above a true continental. Things weren't all labeled which was a bit confusing - esp. coffee urns.
