Not what we were expecting based on reviews. Very dirty. Bugs all over. Bad smell in room. Breakfast was very weak. Coffee like water. Staff is new and trying. Facility needs an overhaul.

Hope they improve the cleaning service…
Plus: Nice size room, comfortable layout and appealing look, even had a kitchenette stocked with wine glasses, plates, and silverware. Bed was comfortable, and there were a nice fireplace and jacuzzi tub in our room. Minus: When we arrived, there was someone’s hair on the edge of the bathtub and in the shower, and a previous guest’s popsicles were half-melted in the mini fridge, so we were really disappointed with the cleanliness. Also, the A/C unit was in the window, draped with the window curtain, and some bugs were getting in.

Price and locations were great. Room was half clean, found old pill, pair of socks, bottle cap and spiders in bathroom. Overall it was not terrible but definitely not pristine. I understand I did not stay at a 5 star hotel so you get what you get!

While the room size was ok, the lighting was too dim, the towels/washcloths were very thin, and the breakfast consisted of prepackaged muffins or danish, apples/bananas, and coffee.

The motel is 5 minutes drive from the Watkins Glen State Park, and 3 minutes drive from a Top grocery store. It is very clean, and we can see beautiful mountains from the window. The room is small but provides everything we need, including two queens beds, a small refrigerator and a small microwave, and a desk with a chair. The breakfast is not really a breakfast but more like coffee with muffins in plastic bags, but with the price it is understandable. There are lots of dinning options nearby. We bought breakfast sandwiches and fruits from the Tops grocery store, and it worked out perfectly. We sure will stay here again next time if we visit Watkins Glen.

Review: The Falls Motel, Watkins Glen State Park I recently stayed at The Falls Motel in Watkins Glen State Park, and unfortunately, my experience was far from pleasant. Here are some key points from my stay: Room Size and Capacity: The room we were given was extremely small, especially for a party of four. Despite this, the hotel charged extra for the additional guests, which felt unjustified given the cramped quarters. The management should have simply stated that the room could not accommodate four people comfortably. Cleanliness and Maintenance: The state of the room was disappointing. There was black mold in the bathroom, which is a serious health concern. The carpet was old, stained, and dirty, adding to the overall unclean feeling of the space. Additionally, the room lacked basic amenities like a small table to place personal items, making it inconvenient for organizing our belongings. Health and Comfort: After the first night, I experienced terrible itching, which made me wonder if there were bed bugs present. This issue further compounded the discomfort and unease during our stay. Overall, my stay at The Falls Motel was quite uncomfortable and did not meet basic standards of cleanliness and space. I hope the management takes these issues seriously and makes the necessary improvements to ensure future guests have a more pleasant experience.

It's a charming little place. Although breakfast was disappointing. (a packaged muffin, an apple & juice bottle) Some protein with all the carbs would make it a breakfast.

The smell would not go away.
Two trash cans had stuff in them. Sink and tub had used bars of soap in them. Not too bad. But the smell was a real problem. We opened the windows for half an hour and cranked up the AC fan to get some air flowing. Did not help. And the bed/sheets reeked terribly as if they hadn't been washed in a very very long time. We left and requested a refund, which they denied. Don't care. Worth not staying here.

Property was walking distance to two waterfalls. Montour Falls is a nice town. It's a quick drive to Watkins Glen and Seneca lake. Affordable, basic motel includes a complimentary but limited continental breakfast. Cleaning staff very friendly and accommodating. Dining options and stores a short drive away. Room has a mini fridge and microwave.
