    The bathroom door didn’t fully close in our room, but it did not bother us at all.

    I liked the staff the most. The owner (maybe?) was so nice and kind and very accommodating to our needs! The location was great! Very close to the Watkins Glenn Park. We were also surprised to see that they offered breakfast treats!

    don't like the bedspread, can't tell if it's clean. lighting outside is too strong and comes through the window. outdated window treatment. flat, uncomfortable pillows. Gross stains on chairs.

    the lamp with plug and USB ports. the mattress was comfortable. good refrigerator. good lighting. smelled and looked clean. really nice guy at check in, asked after me, appreciated that. New furniture is nice.

    Firm mattress

    We stayed here two nights on Columbus Day. Small room, clean bathroom, liked that the window could be opened for fresh air. It was quiet at night and we slept well. The AC worked well, but was rarely used. Felt taken care of the guests. The bed was made, the towels were changed, the trash was removed. The bathroom had both soap and shampoo. Lots of different TV channels, works well. It was nice that they offered breakfast - coffee, muffins. By the way, there is delicious ice cream across the road. Convenient location - 7 minutes walk to Watkins Glen Gorge. We loved this place and would like to return. Very hospitable friendly staff. Thanks a lot. We recommend to everyone.

    A minor thing: the fan of the heater in my room was loud even when I turned it to low.

    Very comfortable and well-furnished roo,m, with complimentary donuts and coffee for breakfast. Excellent Wi-Fi and with microwave and fridge. The traffic along the street dies down at night; I did not need earplugs here. Good bed, slept well.

    The rooms are small and are fine for one person or a couple. I wouldn't recommend staying there if you were there sharing a room on a business trip.

    This is a very clean and reasonably priced motel at the center of Watkins Glen.

    The room was very tiny and the only space to set up my daughter's pack-and-play was in front of the door. The shower curtain and bedspread needed changing due to stains.

    This was a great location to stay in regards to the places we wanted to visit. We were able to check in late. Requests were met promptly.

    I didn't like that they charged my credit/debit card if I didn't check in by a certain time. I was unaware of this. I was paying cash when I got there. I pretty much arrived a couple hours after this happened. My card was refunded. Later that week my bank account was off because I was charged a $15 fee for the sales return. I never called the hotel to complain. I knew they weren't going to reimburse the $15 dollars.
