I knew this place would be slightly dated from the pictures online, but I was hopeful as I will be traveling weekly to Potsdam, and was hoping to make that my weekly spot, but it was horrible. Right from the start the place was dirty, not dated but absolutely dirty. On my way to my room the carpeted stairs had cookies crushed all over them. First entered the room and when I went into the bathroom there was mildew all in the grout of the tiles in the shower. I was on the street side and the noise was awful, not necessarily the hotels fault as they can’t control that. The website says there are blackout curtains in the rooms which was not the case at all, instead they were dated twist blinds which let in lots of light from the street lights. I think the worst part may have been the sheets they were like sandpaper! I got up and left at 5:45am I couldn’t stand being there any longer. The location is great but do yourself a favor and find another place.

Nice, clean hotel. NOTE - NO ELEVATOR. I did not request first floor. When I arrived, they didn't have a first floor room. However they did get me one. I'm in my 70's and an elevator is needed when not on the first floor. Furniture is heavy older style. Seating was good, but chairs were hard to move. It would be nice if there were an adjustable office chair. Armchair would not go under the desk. Good TV and show selection. Location in town is great. Walk out the door and you are in downtown Potsdam. If I were younger and more fit, I would stay there again. Should I go back again, I may check out the Hampton Inn, farther away.
