Rooms were clean & had all necessities. Fantastic view of sunrise over Lake Seneca! This is an older hotel that has been updated. You can tell the owner has gone to great lengths to make it clean & comfortable. Rooms depict and was told this hotel used to be filled with IndyCar, Grand Prix, Formula one drivers in it's heyday.

The pool is being renovated & the hotel is older so at first glance things looked questionable. Upon seeing the rooms & the view we were impressed. My only complaint was there is a need to find a place for the soap-dish in the corner of the new, clean, tiled, glass shower. Once the pool is repaired they will easily get $100 a night more for this location. Nice tv, blow dryer, plenty of coffee, comfy mattress - great view. Everything you need!

The room we stayed in was recently renovated. Very clean. Nice view of Seneca Lake from the back window/back patio. About a two minute drive from downtown Watkins Glen. The restaurant menu was short but the food was very good and the service was great.

Pool was shut down/empty. Shower was new tile but there was no shower niche or soap caddy. Not a big deal. Just slightly inconvenient.

What a great view of Seneca Lake!

This is a nicely refinished motel; don't expect more than that from your room. A few minor requests: the parking- side windows are painted shut; this won't bother most, but the ability to cross ventilate would be great. That's nitpicking, though - we'll stay here again!

There was no breakfast available. The faculty was being renovated. The beds were very comfortable.

The newly renovated bathroom had no ventilation fan. There was no way to remove the steam after taking a shower.

Great views. Serene seeing. Clean and comfortable. Friendly staff.

Not a waking distance to town but, if you want quiet, that's your place.
