We didn’t like that the house keeping did not come to clean the room and the bed was not at all comfortable (the mattress needs to be replaced). The bathroom was very conjusted.

We got in super late, but the directions for entry were fairly simple. We met the proprietors the next morning and we laughed about it in the morning. Nice place to stay.

This property is old and the room clearly showed it. There is need for remodeling. Thought it was overpriced. The only positive experience was that everything is in walking distance (the State Park, the lake and downtown).

The manager/ employee on site was very helpful with local tips, served us ice cream an hour before their shop opened, and the stay was comfortable/ convenient to walk around town because of the location

Stayed here for one night during IMSA races. Room was fine and clean. Nothing special but bed was comfy and a/c worked well. Whole online/virtual check in thing was a little confusing at times but I eventually figured it out and property did respond to my questions. Creamery built in to hotel so it did get a little noisy at times but by bedtime all was quiet. Also it’s a perfect location in heart of Watkins Glen
