Great hotel . We came in for an overnight to see a show at the Bardovan and decided to stay here. Glad we did.
We would definitely return …room was clean and well appointed. Staff couldn’t have been nicer like the proximity to Vassar and it was an easy trip to get there would recommend the hotel highly. The restaurant on the premises looked wonderful we opted to find other places nearby to eat.Savonnas and

Not impressed with our waiter in the restaurant. We sat at our table for over 20 minutes with no menu!! Luckily another waiter stepped in to assist us. Food was delicious so all in all it was a good breakfast.

It is a lovely earth conscious place to lay your head. The rooms are very comfortable. The bath towels are thicker than mine at home! Very quiet and peaceful.
