Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
You have to look past the fact that the rooms are above Beer & Burger restaurant and requires the ability to take 1 flight of stairs. We had room #3 which was amazing! It was actually like having two spacious rooms. We enjoyed the ambience of the fireplace. It was a very comfortable stay. We also enjoyed the restaurant below.

Yehuda

Liked: Staff & service
The room was spacious and somewhat clean. It is more just a room than an Inn, no reception, lobby or lounge. I prefer doublets, but there was a thin sheet as your sleeping cover. Location is perfect, in the heart of Corning, very close to all cafes and restaurants, walking distance to the glass museum.

Nice studio room

This property was a nice, clean, comfortable place to stay. It had a lot of room to spread out and almost seemed like a studio apartment rather than a hotel room. It was on top of a restaurant called Burgers and Beer. I didn’t feel the same sense of cleanliness there, but the food was good. Next time, I would skip the restaurant.
