Pleasantly Surprised!
I have to admit I was skeptical of this place due to the name but was pleasantly surprised. It was clean, well appointed, beds were so comfortable, and cozy, not to mention cute. If I am back in town, I'll definitely stay there again.

If you’re visiting a kid at Cornell, this place is well-located. Beds are ok. Price is very good. Bathroom is a little odd with sink in bedroom, not bathroom. Lobby is social. You’ll meet other parents. Have coffee or a beer. I stay here for location and price point mostly. And free parking!

The rooms aren't really designed for business, the working/sitting areas in the rooms is minimal (I've stayed in about 6-7 different rooms). Beds are fine, shower is straight down from the ceiling
