The staff were very hospitable. Although breakfast was not listed as an amenity, the hotel staff provided fruit, granola bars and muffins. The rooms are clean.
This is the perfect place to stay if you are looking for a clean, no frills place to stay. The upgrades are nice and really create a comfortable space. The location was perfect for us to visit our Syracuse student and also to venture into Skaneateles. The owner provides lots of thoughtful extras that make you feel welcome and glad you came. Good old fashioned personal service which is refreshing in todays world.
The room was VERY small with a musty odor. There were insufficient towels and what was there were old and threadbare. The worse thing was we came back from a wedding rehearsal dinner, and I went to put on my pajamas that were hanging on a hook in the bathroom and they were soaking wet…..like they had been put under a shower! Very disappointed at this accommodation. Now I see why it is fairly cheap. You get what you pay for.

Great motel.
Great little no-frills motel. Served the purpose for a quick weekend trip. Snacks an added bonus! And don't let the bed deceive you. Quite comfortable!
A small very clean motel in Camillus rooms were small but adequate size. Every detail was was clean .the beds are a bit soft but sleep able for a short visit The innkeeper was polite and professional.Fresh fruit and beverages were available in lobby office. Bonus!! Easy check in and easy checkout. Close to all the bigger highways.beautiful community of farms and homes .If I'm ever in the area again I will go back.
The people running this establishment are extremely friendly and a beautiful family. I was fortunate enough to meet their two month old baby girl when I checked out, what a cutie. The room was very clean and comfortable. The bottled water, snacks, and fresh fruit in the room was such a nice added touch Fantastic. You can tell they take great pride in what they do. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. It’s not a really fancy place, but you definitely get your moneys worth.
Nightshade is my go-to hotel for visiting Central NY. Close to Syracuse, clean, comfortable and surprisingly quiet for being on Rt 5. The owners are very friendly and always leave snacks in the room. Affordable as well. Give them a visit if you are in the area.
Last minute reservation, welcoming people. Nice motel in beautiful tree serting. Room is very clean, feels like home,,with fruit and snacks. Nicely renovated.
