My stay at this hotel was phenomenal! The location is unbeatable, close to everything we came to visit in Watkins Glen. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and the staff is incredibly friendly.

This hotel is nestled right in the heart of the State Park, offering a beautiful 2-mile hike with easy access to wineries along Senaca Lake. It's perfect for those who want to explore nature or stroll around downtown. The rooms are comfortable with king-sized beds and basic amenities, but the dining options with curries may not suit everyone's taste buds.

My stay at the hotel was wonderful! The rooms were super comfy and clean, and the staff was incredibly friendly. The location was perfect, just a stone's throw away from the beach and surrounded by great dining options. Although the dining experience was average, the pool area was well-maintained and enjoyable. The price was fair, but it would be better if Wi-Fi was included.
