Great hotel, big rooms, nice people, easy access to downtown.
Pros:

Our room was big and nice. The English woman who welcomed us was very friendly.

Cons:

It would have been nice to have a screen on our window as we wanted to cool down the room by opening the window but there was no screen.

Comfortable place to stay very close to the heart of Cooperstown attractions.
Pros:

The Railroad Inn is a great renovated inn on the edge of Cooperstown within a short 10 minute walk of Main St attractions and restaurants. The room is very comfortable. The Inn has a small public lobby as well as outdoor covered porch and another outdoor sitting area adjacent to the parking lot. The decor is about trains with an industrial look/feel. The help yourself breakfast bar is available 24/7 and has coffee, snacks, water, yogurt, cereal, oatmeal and bagels. The location is quiet and the Cooperstown Distillery is only a 2 minute walk away. We had a great 2 day off season visit.
