The room was small but comfortable,nicely decorated, and clean. One oddity (for me) -- check-in was done remotely via a kiosk located before the lobby. This lenghened the check-in process.

Our room smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. The facility is run down and cracked/crumbling in many places. There is no breakfast. Staff was, with one exception, uninterested or unresponsive about the smoke problem. Finally, on our last of 3 nights, we were moved to a good room.

The room still had dirt on the floor. In the bathroom you could see mold growing in a corner. The towels they gave you were the size of a head towel. The bed was uncomfortable.

Not very clean. TV didn't work, called, no one came. My Yorkie found a fortune cookie, we didn't get Chinese. Check in was a fiasco.

The check in is time consuming through some kind of remote video check in. No person at the desk. The interior is a bit dated although some rooms have been repainted (we rented 3 rooms). The towels are clean but dingy and the fan in the bathroom didn't work. The beds are comfortable but the furniture is a bit old and chipped.

The light in the bathroom did not work and the light above the window seat did not work . Also the heat lamp and fan in the bathroom did not work. We tried to contact maintenance and the house keeping with no luck. Very frustrating. This was a father and son weekend trip and I’m very disappointed .

Two of three days-no maid service. (Day 1 was claimed by them to be our fault, day 2 was unexplained.) No hot water final night and morning-no notice or offer to move us to room with hot water. Radiator/heater dial broken. (Air blew either cool or very hot.) Front desk button on room phone goes to “invalid number.” After-hours communication with staff limited to video kiosk in front entryway. Complaints/concerns to staff were mostly explained away as the guest failing to understanding how they run things. There was never an apology for the inconvenience or an indication of understanding. We stayed here 5 months ago and it wasn’t great, but it was better. With exception of kind woman at check-in, it was a bad stay. We will not stay here again.

No human attendent on site. Only a check in kiosk that required that you stand in the breezeway while you completed check in. The woman on the video check-in was nice enough, but it crashed and i had to stand in the breezeway for about 20min have the come out of the machine. The fitness center is there but locked. Was not opened at 6am as stated on the sign outside the door. Drain in the bathroom sink of the room does not drain for 5 min after washing up. Wallpaper badly peeled down over a window at the end of the hall. Big waterspot on the drop ceiling. Next morning, coffee wasn't ready in the loby till after 7. We'll try somwhere else next time on Auburn.

This place was perfectly situated between Syracuse and wine country. The room, while a little smaller than expected, was very clean and pretty quiet. Bed was comfortable. Walkable to nearby restaurants and some shops. I didn't like the electronic check-in process. Good place for a long weekend stay, for football and wine!

We stayed for 1 night. The beds were comfortable and the shower was hot. The rooms were clean if you didn't look too closely. But don't look too closely, or you'll see what looks like the remnants of vomit down the wall by the headboard and hair on the shower ledge. And the fridge in our room was going bad, and it made noises that reminded me of an underwater submarine movie. If we were staying more than 1 night, I would have asked for a new room, especially since I had paid $150 for it.

While the facility was clean and sufficient, it obviously is "tired" and needs some updating.
