Bar is great, pricey. Staff was great. Place felt shabby. What’s up with blue wallpaper in hallways outside of Banfis
Pros:

Location is great.

Cons:

Furnishings, wall coverings, lamps etc., very tired and dated. Disappointing. Shocked that Cornell with a premier hotel school doesn’t take more pride in the hotel

Wonderful staff, extremely attentive. They were accommodated when we arrived early and needed to ensure a few minutes late checkout in case of Graduation overrun.
