This place is close to plenty of dining options, easy to park and find your room, staff is friendly and helpful but most of all the rooms are quiet and clean which is super inviting and leaves an lasting impression of service and attention.
Rooms were old and bathrooms ughhh. The area is concerning - the loud noises and talking and door knocking - a lot of activity's questionable. The owner was courteous and good. The place is old and let’s say I didn’t sleep. Pillows are skinny Old Old Old

Nice Cheap and Cheerful Hotel
This hotel is nicely situated near the I81 and the city centre. It was nice and quiet and the rooms open out onto the courtyard. As I was on the ground floor I managed to park 2 metres from my door. A bit shabby inside but comfy enough for a 1 or 2 night stay.

The property was very nice, with clean and comfortable rooms, but the area around it seemed a little unsafe.

It was a great location for enjoying town as we didn’t need the car at all. Comfortable room and friendly staff at checkin and check out-they even began breakfast a little earlier than usual as we had a long drive back home. Other than a few broken panes of glass in the room next door that needs to be fixed, the property was ok for the price we paid.
Two night stay for business. Price was right for our needs. Everything was clean. The upstairs residents above us were very noisy all night long. They advertised breakfast which they did not have.

ok
Stay was ok, hot water didn't work the last day we were there. convenient location.
This is a very nice but basic motel in Cortland. It has a nice free breakfast and all the rooms lead out onto an external balcony so it's nice and easy to get in and out although make sure you lock the door as in theory anyone from outside can walk up the stairs and into your room otherwise. The bath was very old and worn looking. The breakfast was basic but ok with juice, cereal and honey buns.
Excellent prices older hotel in cortland, tastefully updated, clean, well maintained & reasonably comfortable, Internet very slow as well as Television content glitched ( delayed ) every few minutes.

Overnight stay in Cortland
The staff was very accommodating and friendly. Went above and beyond. I did notice black mold in ceiling tile above toilet in bathroom and toilet stuck when flushed. Everything else was satisfactory.

Clean but Dated
Came to Cortland to visit our son who is a college freshman for his 18th birthday. Service was good. There was an issue at check in with their system but they made it go seamless for us.
The room was clean but outdated. Although portions were newer (bathroom was recently renovated and newer laminate wood tile floors) the furniture and drop ceilings were scratched and stained. One mattress was soft the other honestly felt like sleeping on cardboard.
I had never been to downtown Cortland and was surprised with the overall neighborhood. Walking around at night didn’t seem safe. Although there were sharp containers on the street we also found hypodermic needles littering many places. Interesting people were in the parking lot, but overall our stay was quiet.
At no fault of the employees and owners, I probably will not be staying again.
This place is a dump with a bunch of druggies in the parking lot!! it is definitely not worth $135 a night! It is the grossest place. I’ve stayed in a long time!
The tub was filthy, the room was supposed to be non smoking but it didnt smell that way. Couldnt get the tv to work, And the place housed the homeless. I didnt feel safe at all.

The mattresses are super hard, I got no sleep and in the morning felt like I was run over by a truck. Not comfortable. The room was decent, we only stayed one night so we dealt with it fine. If they get softer beds I would consider staying here again.

Clean room. Helpful and courteous staff. Great location in town..
Basically it's a "get what you pay for" and less! In dire need of updating. Non smoking room with cigarette burn holes in the bedding. No continental breakfast available, no one even at the desk in the a.m. to inquire about coffee. Homeless people going through the dumpster, only 2 cars in the parking lot. Slept with the chair in front of my door because I didn't feel too safe!
