Cazenovia is a treat if you love 19th century architecture and this hotel fits in perfectly with…read morethe rows of quaint shops, however, it badly needs work. There are several things that could be done to help increase their rating and revenue. As they say, you have to sell the rooms. The amenities like bar and restaurant are nice but the bulk of revenue comes from keeping a hotel constantly at a high level of occupancy. Look at the pictures, simply beautiful and the staff are welcoming...but: The room locks are bad. They are a modern turn key lock, but you have to try to figure out how to turn the key back again after unlocking and then double check that the handle doesn't move before closing your door from the inside, or else you are not locked in (except for a flimsy chain). They need to be replaced, for guest safety and piece of mind, even though this is Caz not NYC. Even one incident of an inebriated person mistaking the wrong room in the middle of the night and scaring a guest could result in a big issue for the hotel. The linen is rough and needs replacing. The rooms are picturesque but modern guests want modern comforts, like linens at least as soft as you would have in your own home. The side door entrance could use a big area rug over the floor if they are not going to replace all the broken tiles. The bathrooms are reminiscent of thruway motel bathrooms and they do an injustice to the rest of the hotel. The old English maxim "paint it white" does not serve well here, although it may have been done to make the area look larger. White and cream colors get dirty and dingy easily and the bathroom appliances are utilitarian only. Much could be done in the bathroom to make the room look better overall. It is crowded and a man cannot stand directly in front of the toilet. Plumbing is what it is, any attempt to move the toilet even a few inches to the side is going to be a major deal. The standing sink could be replaced with a small sink basin that sets slightly nearer the door in an elongated counter that can hold toiletries. The counter could curve and taper so it doesn't overhang the toilet. The bathroom has cheap looking, unevenly hung towel racks and narrow shelves, a small mirror and cheap lighting fixtures. If these were replaced with slightly nicer fixtures and the walls painted a more pleasing color, this would make the bathroom look better. Colored, soft towels and bath rugs would also help the overall look. Even a toilet seat cover, tank cover and a bowl of potpourri or wicker tissue holder could camouflage the plain toilet. If they were going to replace the tub though, a simple standing shower would suffice for most travelers and make the bathroom less crowded. A towel valet or shelf in the newly freed up space would improve the look. If someone was looking to put money into renovation, this is the place to concentrate on first, from a guest p.o.v. So, a lot of criticism, but hopefully in the spirit of helping. The bulk of the hotel is charming and beautiful. I'm sure the owners would love to have this place full of bustling Dickensian good cheer, and all the year round. The big fireplaces are showcased well, the dining rooms are breathtaking, the staircase leads to lovely wallpapered hallways, all these things are so unusual compared to a modern hotel. There are many artisan bakeries, shops, craft stores and the like to explore and they are within walking distance. In particular I would recommend the fresh baked bread at HeartStone Bakery and the locally made jams, cider, honey, jewelry, souvenirs and tchotchkes at 20 East. Cazenovia Lake is nearby, the classically beautiful Brewster Inn for more fine dining, many historical sites and relaxing country drives through the farmland or through the woods over to Cazenovia Falls.

(There were two rooms but no door between them to make a true suite.) Then, the dirty and dingy area rugs - get rid of them! The hall carpeting also needs vacuuming, if not replacing. The room has a little 30 inch TV sitting in the extra-large living room with absolutely no way to stream content, even with my Roku gear because the remote has no Input button. The room also lacks noise deadening draperery even though we were on main street! You get it. Then, the leather couch, hot in the summer and cold in the winter - go figure! Also, this couch is also so deep that your feet can't reach the floor unless you slide halfway down the couch, or you're 6 ft 4--either one! And no wifi!  Staff said they were trying to reset their router, but no results ever showed up. This could be a "high-end" place if the proprietors only cared enough, but apparently they don't. It's the little things and the "extras" that count.

There was something wrong with the 50 amp power. My surge protector continued to measure 103-106 volts on both legs. Not every night but often enough to force me to change to 30 amp power. My surge protector shut down repeatedly and my breakers were tripping. I reported it to the office and I got a shrug and blank stare. At other parks similar reports resulted in maintenance personnel or a manager being dispatched or paged within minutes. From a liability and safety perspective electric power is one of the most critical.

Garbage is picked up at every site every day, great walking trails, fishing ponds and a nice pool/hot tub area. Each year we book a site in August for the weekend when they do the flashlight candy hunt for the kids. The kids absolutely love it and the staff makes sure that no child leaves without candy. Being able to hop on a shuttle or take a short drive to the casino is a plus if you're into that too! Nice restaurants and venues there for rainy days. The only thing that even borders on a negative is the price, which is higher than a lot of other campgrounds, but you really do get what you pay for, and that is especially true here. Barring some catastrophic change, we will be back many more times in the future!

After about 15-20 minutes it seemed like the staff got it going and food was coming out to tables and customers that ordered the Mother's Day brunch were getting their food quickly. My kids ordered the chocolate chip pancakes. One with game and one with sausage. My daughter is very picky with her pancakes and ate them all. I had the brunch. I had eggs Benedict, spinach omelette, ham and cheese omelette, bacon, fresh fruit, and two croissants. The food was delicious and fresh.
