Great place to stay!
Pros:

Location great and rooms are just what we need! Everything was clean and nice! Love staying here

Cons:

Everything was great except we had to wait for an hour to check in as our rooms were not clean and available yet. It was too cold to walk around the town so we sat in the lobby. The staff were apologetic but we waited until almost 5pm for our rooms which was unusual!

Nice room layout
Pros:

The room design and location.

Cons:

We had a long drive to hotel and when we got there about 3:30 our rooms were not ready and had to sit in the lobby for an hour - not sure why that happened but was frustrating and we were not the only ones this happened to. Maybe they didn’t have enough cleaning staff?!?
While location great - the overnight street traffic was terrible. Not sure what they can do to help this as there are 2 bars open late across the street. Not a great nights sleep but a fun weekend in Syracuse!

Other than a few of those instances, we would stay here again because the place was very clean and we enjoyed it otherwi
Pros:

They had free breakfast. There was parking. It was clean and the staff was friendly.

Cons:

A lot of hotels in Syracuse want to clean your room every other day and they never came on day two to even refresh our room even though I requested it specifically when we checked in. In fact, I was asked if we wanted it and I said yes. That was frustrating cause we could use some fresh towels and the straightening up as you get with most hotels was not done.

Additionally, our room happened to be facing the Irish bar across the street so you could hear belligerently drunk people being super loud between the hours of midnight and like 2 AM so we were woken up every single night. Next time we’ll make sure to get a room on the other side of the building.

Great hotel, great location, great staff!!
Pros:

Great hotel, great location, great staff!! Everything was so enjoyable. We were traveling back home and hit a snowstorm. Decided to stop and stay at this hotel overnight until roads were clean. Best decision! The accommodation and staff were outstanding

Pros:

The breakfast was okay, it would have been nice to see scrambled eggs, bacon strips, sausage patties, and potatoes. The breakfast bar had pre-made sausage biscuits, and there were egg patties you could add on top. There was also french toast and oatmeal, as well as a variety of cereals, bagels and pastries.

Cons:

The temperature in the hallways was quite warm, ranging from 72 to 75 degrees, as noted on the thermostats in the hallways. This caused our room to be a bit on the warm side, so we actually had to run the air conditioning at night to keep the room at 68 degrees while we slept. We stayed the third week in November, and the temperature outside was seasonably warm, at around 50 degrees.
