I attached the paperwork and the inside paperwork that is given to you when you come to the motel. You can see on the paperwork that there literally cannot be any emergencies or you'll get charged for them. We had something crawling above our heads the enter night. It sounded like something running fast in one room and something tiptoeing in the other room. This would not have been on their emergencies so we didn't call. We were woken up with pounding on our door from room service. We were not ready to get going at 8:24 in the morning so we had to get dressed to answer the door. Check out is by 11, which is normal and fine, check in had to be done by 3:45 or they would let us know where they were putting the keys? Needless to say, we checked in by 3:45. There were no food options, store options or any accommodations available after 3:45 PM. Do not have an emergency, they will charge you. Our experience was not pleasant and we will not be back to the motel. The pool was closed and that wasn't an option for us to do either.

Stayed here in the family suit for Howe caverns "Naked in a Cave" event where you explore the cave and it's wonders, wearing nothing but a smile and comfortable shoes! Staying at the motel was extremely convenient as the main attraction is a short walk from the Motel. The suit consisted of 2 rooms with 2 double beds and a shared bathroom. The only down side to the shared bathroom was the water pressure, which made the shower more of a gentle mist than a shower. The pool was still open mid September which was great, however not heated so was a bit chilly to dip. Overall though this spot is clean, comfortable and a great value!

The only reason why we keep staying there is that there's really nowhere else in the area other than a hotel off R30 n I88. Its main occupancy is by people that the state or county that pay the hotel to stay there or the Howes Cavern Inn where if you reserve and need to change your date or cancel anytime of the year they won't refund or give you credit for another date. The breakfast was killed with Covid and afterwards not really started up again. The excuse we get is that Wyndham won't allow us to add to what we have. There's a Dunkin across the road though. There's also the Cobleskill dine up the road. So if you need to stay here due to location then there's not much to choose from. If you're traveling east or west stop at another town.

My husband and I stayed there for an evening and found the owner, Ed to be very welcoming and hospitable. The rates are very reasonable too. The Inn itself is kept in pristine condition, it however hasn't been update in a number of years. The furnishing are dated but again, it was neat as a pin and not a speck of dust to be found. The only draw back is that there is one bathroom that is shared for all 5 bedrooms. If you're staying with a group of friends or family, that might be a little more comfortable.

When this place opened many moons ago as a Holiday Inn (that's why the address lists the street as…read moreHoliday Way) I stayed here on business for several days and had a nice stay. There was an upscale restaurant down the road and generally it was an easy place to book at a time before AirB&B. I potentially needed an accessible room so this was the only option for miles. It was, unfortunately, a short but disappointing stay overall. Let me say that the best part of this experience was the person on the day shift who answered the phone and checked about accessible rooms (you can't get one if your party has more than 2 people in a room-you have to book a second room, so double the price). The check in person also was able to move our room across the hall so we were not up against the highway. He offered up free water bottles for each of us. So far so good. Entering the room, there was a strong smell of deodorizer or cleaner. The double queen room was spacious enough and the refrigerator worked well. A microwave was also available. The bathroom floor seemed new and was overall clean. The toilet flush gurgled but it operated fine. The faucet was replaced at some point but was crooked and the drain stopper was missing its top. Everything in the room was painted in various shades of tan except for the back of the bathroom door which was painted white with a roller since no one cut in along the hook, knob hinges or the floor. The room space itself was stark in that there was no art or decor on the walls except for two mirrors and the triangular headboards. If you wanted to used the drawers, you were limited as the night stand was missing all of the hardware and the bureau was missing 1/4 of them. All the furniture shows signs of dings, dents and distress. The carpet was stained in multiple spots including a 3" diameter red circle on the outside wall that looked like someone had dumped a whole bottle of nail polish. The two chairs at the desk/table were mismatched. One was probably original as the foam was two dimensional. The other was a green banquet chair identical to those in the breakfast room and similar to those in the former Holiday Inn Ballroom in the basement. The air conditioning cooled enough but was malfunctioning as everything in the room, including our clothes, was damp when we dressed in the morning. Coffee and hot water is available 24/7 in the breakfast room. The coffee and water was pleasantly hot in the late afternoon as they did not use air pots like many hotels. I had to got to the front desk for napkins. Upon re-entering our room after getting coffee I understood why they had sprayed our room as there was a strong smell akin to body odor. The bed sheets appeared very clean but the mattress itself was very soft and uncomfortable . The deodorizer must also have been used on the beds as it permeated our sleepwear. We smelled it as we unpacked our clothes at the next stop. Breakfast had a few carb-forward choices and small yogurts. We were glad we had brought something from home, just in case. One of us went out to our vehicle parked on the east side of the building in the early evening . A female employee (?) was sweeping. Two other women were there as well, one on the bench and a third who did not appear to be guest or an employee talking to the sweeping woman. She was dressed in a cleavage revealing top and a leopard skirt that ended where her legs began. When I reported all of this (with less detail) via the Quality Inn survey, I received a terse reply not addressing anything except my observation of the woman in the lot. They implied that the third woman was an employee and that my observation of this person's dress was in "poor taste." I'm not sure what role the woman in question has in that business, but perhaps the person in charge of HR for this location might need to address workwear, if she was in fact an employee. However this might be why this place is in such disrepair. In a public facing business where perception is equally important as the product and service, management here is focused only on being defensive when guests bring up issues. No, I won't be returning.

In my case, they apologized profusely about the water pressure in the shower, but explained that nothing could be done to ameliorate the problem. I was very impressed by their prompt attention to my complaint and genuine concern over the issue I raised. And I appreciated that they offered me a new room (which I declined). I recommend the hotel and honestly wish I could have awarded it a five-star rating for all the things they did right. I'd return to this hotel in a heartbeat -- only this time in a different room!

When our meals came, they were warm, served with unimaginative vegetables. They did offer a purple carrot, a unicorn in Amsterdam. In a spectacular location like this, they could do a killing if their food was as unique and as inspired as their ambience. The service was solid.

We could have happily spent all night in this area. We were later seated in the restaurant area and had another round of drinks, an appetizer (roasted pork terrine) and two entrees (chicken Milanese and the lamb shoulder ragu).
