Great Cooperstown stay
Check in was easy and fast. The room was clean and bright. Location was perfect, just a 3 minute drive into town, but could have walked if we wanted to. While the selection of snacks was limited, they were available 24/7 along with coffee, teas and hot chocolate which was a great option. Would definitely stay again on next trip.

Last minute decision to stay in Cooperstown on a beautiful fall day. Found this place and couldn’t have been happier with the accommodations and rate.

There was a lack of hospitality. When we checked in, we were given very little information from the woman at the desk. She was preoccupied with babysitting a young child and conversing with his mother.
Otherwise the Inn was clean and very nicely restored.

Cooperstown weekend.
It was a great place to stay. Clean,quiet and comfortable. The outdoor areas were nice to just chill out in. Picked the perfect time to go. Everything in the area was open but not crowded.

Delays at check-in due to front desk personnel being elsewhere in and about property, had to leave, come back an hour later, and then wait another ten minutes to be welcomed. Only room criticism is shower floor is smooth, and a slip hazard when wet; could have used some texture on it.
