Best Western University Inn

Best Western University Inn

8/10 Good
"VERY dated rooms but clean. Breakfast was average, mostly carbs ( breads, oatmeal, waffles, muffins, cereal. ) small amount of fresh fruit, hotel scrambled eggs and meat. The building we were in ( main building) lower floor doors unlocked to the parking lot. No key needed to enter, didn’t seem quite safe to me, anyone could come in. The EV charging is SUPER slow and quite expensive but convenient. Overall very average"

"Had a quarter of a roll of toilet paper when we checked in, called twice and finally went down ourselves to get a roll... Light bulb was out in the showere came to fix it while I was in the shower and then never came back. Service at the restaurant/bar was HORRIBLE! They need to hire someone that knows what they are doing in the food service business. Took a good 10 - 15 mins to be waited on at the bar and it wasn't busy. The room was clean and comfortable. Nice and close to downtown terrible parking lot. Not enough spots for parking..."

"Had a wedding at the Inn at Taughannock Falls and it was tricky trying to find my way back in the dark, but found it and saw it was a bit cheaper than when I had originally booked my room. I also couldn't find anyplace to enter my AARP membership to get 10% off.."
