Located near major educational institutions

Express check-out service available

Rooms include both refrigerators and coffee makers

Cons

Some attractions require transportation to access

“The onsite Perkins is a definite plus, as are the lower rates, but I'm concerned by reports of mildew and unclean conditions. For travelers visiting SUNY Cortland or Greek Peak, the location is convenient. However, I'd advise confirming recent renovations or improvements before booking.”
