The hotel was so clean and the staff were wonderful. By far the best breakfast I have ever had from a hotel. The selection and quality of food was just phenomenal. I travel to Utica a couple times a year and will be booking here every time now!
Place was easy to get to. Clean, not too dated. Handicapped room was easy to acess with a roll in shower. Very nice. Staff were friendly and informative. Buffet breakfast was average. Not too many choices. Overall a good place to stay.
We stayed one nite on our way home from our east coast vacation. The room was okay, but it was very loud when doors closed close to our room. Breakfast was good.
The gentleman at check was very nice and personable. Staff was pleasant, allowing us to use the restaurant area to gather our large group. Would definitely recommend this hotel.
