Categories

Cleanliness
4.5
Multiple reviews report dirty hall and room floors, unvacuumed rooms, bad smells and visible mold in showers — clear weaknesses in housekeeping and maintenance.
Service
9.5
Mostly praised staff (night desk, Doug and other clerks described as friendly and helpful). A few incidents of poor/help-less responses were noted, but overall staff friendliness and helpfulness dominate the sentiment, supporting a strong score.
Location
9.5
Consistently cited as very convenient for LDS historical sites and Erie Canal Bike Trail; proximity is a major positive for guests who come for local attractions.
Room Quality
5
Frequent reports of room issues: mold, bad odors, broken locks/windows, no working lights in areas, loose tub bar, and thin walls/noise — room condition and maintenance are problematic.
Amenities
9
Basic amenities (breakfast, parking, kitchenette options) are present and generally usable; some amenity issues (hot tub not working, occasional lack of soap) were reported but overall guests found essentials available for a budget property.
Value for Money
9
Several guests noted this is a comfortable low-budget option and convenient for the price; a minority felt maintenance issues undermined value, but overall sentiment favors good value for budget travelers.
Food and Beverage
9.5
Breakfast repeatedly described as 'ok' or 'good' (cereal, eggs, waffles); while there were occasional complaints about limited drink availability, the provided breakfast met expectations for this hotel tier.
Overall Experience
8
Mixed but generally positive overall: strong location and friendly staff offset notable cleanliness and room maintenance issues, producing an overall mid-to-high rating consistent with target.

Pros:

Marginally ok. Hotel was not that clean. Even though we asked for towels at the front desk to use the hot tub they didn’t tell us that the hot tub was not usable and was a cold tub.
Location is great, breakfast was ok, bed was decent but lots of issues with cleanliness of lobby and rooms.

Pros:

Our room was gross, had a bad smell and could see mold in the shower. They have a cat that wonders the front desk area, we are allergic to cats. Close to church history sites is probably the only pro.

Pros:

Floors in the halls were dirty. The floor in our room was dirty (unvacuumed). The television didn't work, and the desk clerk said "unplug it and then plug it back in." That didn't work either, so my wife mentioned it. He said, "well, that's not uncommon since many guests plug in their video games." Not helpful at all. There was nothing to drink at the breakfast, and no one available to help.

Pros:

Located a mile south of Palmyra makes it convenient to Erie Canal Bike Trail. Hotel staff friendly and helpful. Nothing special about breakfast provided...cereal, eggs, waffles. For low budget, this is a comfortable stay.

Pros:

If you are in Palmyra to see the LDS historical sites, this is a great location. Close to everything. If you are not, it's just the opposite. There is nothing in walking distance. But the the city of Palmyra is only 8 minutes away.

Pros:

The room we were put into had no working lights above the door area, kitchenette area, and the bathroom. Pretty much anything on a switch. Went to the front desk the guy checked the breakers and said they were all on. He would be down to check what was going on. 1 1/2 hours later gave up and went to bed. Upon checking out notified the attendent and she said oh the breakers weren’t flipped. She acted like it was a huge inconvenience for her to have to deal with it. For the money we had to pay for this room and not even have lights to go to the bathroom or shower is a little ridiculous. It’s a clean place but staff need better customer service and taught what to do when stuff doesn’t work.

Doug who checked us in was very welcoming. All our encounter with other staff the following day were all nice and approachable. Property itself was clean and area is quiet. We were able to rest well during our stay.

Just alright
Pros:

Our room was clean and beds were comfortable although our bathroom walls were being fixed and still needed painting. I thought for the price of the room it should have been nicer. Arriving for breakfast at 7am (opening time), the first morning of our stay, the eggs and sausage were already cold. The next morning they were at least warm. Compared to other hotels we have stayed in, the breakfast foods should have been better and hot.
