Close to town but quiet and relaxing. Pool, gazebo and some rockers outside your door for enjoying. Danish type things and coffee are only options. Fine for us. Beds were great.

Very nice place, only issu was the "breakfast included". The breakfast they provide was hostess sinle wrapped danishes, muffin and mini donuts. No fruit, bagel, eggs, toast, nothing but the pre packaged sugary treats. Orher than that, was a very nice, spacious room.

The motel is very dated, could use a newer mattress, but the room was clean; not a bad stay for what it is (an older roadside motel), but was way overpriced (I assume due to it being the Cornell graduation weekend in nearby Ithaca).

DEWEY

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The surface was clean BUT the carpeting was filthy. There was no screen on back window preventing getting a cross breath to alleviate the very musty spell when first entering room. Had 4 pillows - 2 were filthy. Had there been pillow covers, not just pillow cases, that could be changed there may not have been that issue. The water control in bathroom and shower need fixing/updating.No plug for tub so can’t use as a tub. Curtains dirty and falling off tract. At least shower curtain was clean and towels were very plush. Towels were replaced and bed made daily. The filter on the air conditioner, the controls, and freezer were dirty. Continental bfst. was store bought powdered donuts or a muffin with coffee. Really !!!

This is an old-style motor lodge one would find on a U.S. Highway in the 50s or 60s. The decor shows it. If you are seeking a fancy, glitzy resort, go elsewhere. If you want a clean, safe, convenient hotel, go here. The staff are friendly. The rooms are clean, but dated. They service the room every day! And restock your coffee! The wifi is iffy, but I think that’s a Glen problem, not theirs. Our fire stick only had some lagging. The breakfast is packaged muffins, which was great for us as we grabbed and went to WGI. Want a full spread? Go to one of the diners a 3 minute drive into town. Pool was clean, a rarity among higher priced chain motels even. Your kids will love it. We already made plans to stay for the 2026 6 Hours. The place is amazingly close to WGI. Did I mention the friendly staff?

I stayed in the King bed suite with our dog. It was very spacious and well equipped with recliners, table and chairs, desk, fridge, microwave and coffee maker. The room was a bit dated but it was clean and the price was good. There was no breakfast available but we brought our own and used the microwave for heating.
