An easy walk to the pink lot to pick up the walking trail to the concert venue. On site restaurant is a little pricey, but worth every penny. Seriously. Nice upgrades to the hotel.

My husband and I stayed here during an event in Syracuse. The room for 3 nights was over $1,000.00. We check in and find there was no longer a shuttle service we planned to use. The hotel room was okay. Outdated but spacious. Smelled of smoke, several light bulbs out and the tub faucet was broken. Very few amenities but the on site steakhouse was phenomenal and probably the only thing this hotel has going for it.

Jean

Disliked: Amenities
The equipment in the fitness center was in poor condition. The room we were in looked like it had flooded at one point. You could tell by the poor condition of the closet. I tripped over the lip of the front door when we got there. They wanted to charge me $30 for ‘early check in’ then were surprised that I said we’d wait bc I didn’t care about checking in early. That’s just when we got there. I won’t stay here again.

The front desk clerk had attitude and was very rude, had to ring bell multiple times to get attention in middle of the day. First floor hallway and room smelled horrible. Luggage cart was very unsafe to use. Bathroom sink drained slowly, I used at night and it was still draining in morning.
