Arrival was pleasant. Group of workers, staying at hotel, were sitting outside entrance w/30 pack of beer & smoking cigarettes. Some w/o shirts on. Very unappealing, especially to my wife. Room was clean. Bathroom was remodeled, bright, and clean. There was a variety of breakfast items but cooked items were cold and breakfast potatoes hard. Realize it is a budget hotel but still disappointed in breakfast.

Decent hotel for the price, good breakfast

I stayed at this hotel while doing a book-signing in Utica. I must admit, the hotel was nice, with pretty rooms and a good complimentary breakfast in the morning. However, when I arrived, the front desk person tried to get me to pay $180.00+ for a room, just because there was a motocross convention in town that night. Really? I don't think any Best Western is worth $180/night any time. To his credit, he did come down to $120/night when he saw I was leaving to drive out of town for a lesser price. Anyway, the room was attractive and quiet, and I got a good night's sleep there. I would return for the lower price.

We were heading west on the NY Turnpike looking for a place to stay. It was getting late and there did not appear to be many hotels to choose from. This hotel was OK. It had a clean room and there was a good pizza restaurant not tooo far away. The hotel looks somewhat dated. We did not have any problems with staying there.

My wife and I were heading East to visit relatives in New Hampshire and Massachusetts. It was a driving trip which is not my favorite to do trips. Anyway, after 11 hrs of driving, I stopped at Best Western because I had a coupon for a discount. However, the hotel did not accept it because the coupon was only good on Friday & Saturday nights. This was a little backwards in my estimation as I would have thought that Thursday nights would be cheaper (non weekend). Wrong.
Anyway, we stayed here because I was tired and sick of driving. The front desk clerk (Tony) was very nice. He gave me a military discount. He also gave us a very nice room,.The bed was very comfortable. The amenities were okay but not great. There was no refrigerator or microwave in the room. There was a work desk with wifi which was nice.The bathroom needs updating but was sufficient to shower etc. The rooms were originally outside entry but BW added a nice exterior enclosed hallway for safety purposes.
I recommend this hotel with some drawbacks. BTW, always stop at each state's Info Center and pick up the free discount coupon booklets. One can generally save a good amount of dollars by doing so.

All is well

This hotel is right off #90 Thruway. I stayed two nights my first visit when my husband was rushed to the ER in Utica. No time to check reviews but I knew this would be a mid range hotel. Nearby hotels were around $170 or dumps.

This hotel was unique in that it had a superior glass corridor with heat/AC between the ground floor rooms and the parking lot.

I was warmly greeted around 9 pm when the hotel looked almost full. I was given a ground floor room, sample size tooth paste and brush. Exhausted, I found the room spotless and the bed very comfortable. The fridge rattled a bit but stopped once I moved it an inch. TV and internet good. Nice thick towels.

I returned here for one night when my husband was released from rehab. Again, this was unexpected so was given the necessities. Different room. Again very clean and comfortable with plenty of countertop space for toiletries.

This hotel is next to a Mc Donald's and Wendy's but I chose to walk past Micky's to its next door neighbor, Delmonico's,to enjoy a first class dinner once I knew my husband was able to return to our cabin in the Adirondack Mountains.
