Location is right off the NY Thruway. Easy on and off. Easy access to Utica center - five to ten minutes to drive to city center - straight line from hotel. Room was basic, clean and functional. I was at first in a room in the Annex and had trouble with wifi but moved to the main building where the... More

This location was very nice. I stayed in a room in the annex building. The decor and furnishings look relatively new. The bed was very comfy. The bathroom was clean and all worked well. The only criticism I had (and I let the front desk know) was the central a/c unit seemed to be leaking. It wasn't much, I think... More

When we got there on Sun 9-18-2011, we had to walk to one of the nearby restaurants, because the hotel doesn't have one. It was dark, and the driveway is how you get to the restaurants. However, I noticed a 6"-8" wide, deep hole in the driveway. Feeling lucky that I hadn't stepped in it, and broke a leg, upon... More

We stopped on the way to Cape Cod, MA. Simple, but nice, clean and friendly hotel. As others indicated breakfast could be more diversified, but there are lot of places to eat outside for those who feel so. More

We asked for a clean fresh room and although on the surface it was clean two of us left with asthmatic coughs in the morning- needs a deep upholstery clean or update. Breakfast was an average affair except for unedible sausage and omlette discs that needed microwaving before eating- don't bother. Staff were helpful with extra sheets. Informed hotel of... More

We checked into the Best Western very late at night at the last minute and had a comfortable night of sleep. This was a good, clean no frills hotel at reasonable $119 a night plus a complimentary breakfast. There was a comfortable double bed with large bathroom and enough room for chairs and table in the main room. At this... More

It has been a while since I stayed at a Best Western so I was a little unsure what to expect.

I stayed in Best Western before but this hotel is very ancient. All the facilities are poor, even the towels (threats are loose and the colour is not tracable).
