Staff super friendly and happy to assist-best part of hotel! It is a historic hotel so some issues have to be overlooked, but it is a non-smoking hotel and my room smelled of old smoke. I wish they did breakfast on weekends at 7 so people who were attending graduations could grab something before leaving...

Consistently amazing experience

This is my second time visiting this hotel and it has been a consistently amazing experience. From the front desk staff to the cleanliness of the room you would think you are staying in a 5 star hotel. This hotel has old time charm in a modern style. The room is very spacious and the view is fantastic. It’s centrally located to some great restaurants. I’m staying here moving forward anytime I have to come to Syracuse University to visit my child.

No AC room was very hot!!

Our AC did not work in our room. I called the front desk and the night “manager” came to replace the batteries in the thermostat which didn’t work either. I asked if she please had a fan since our room was very hot and no air cycling at all. Then we asked for a different room, apparently there were none available. The day manager came in, in the morning, I let her know what happened and she did take some money off our bill. The day manager, Stephanie was very nice.

Between OK and good.

Lot of hair all over the bathroom floor. No soap. No channel guide for the TV. Poor lighting in the bathroom. One light by the bed had no bulb. But comfortable bed, convenient location.
