I stayed at this Quality Inn recently when traveling to Big Flats. I was very pleasantly surprised. My room was very clean and very comfortable, and extremely quiet. There was no traffic noise, or noise from other guests. The check-in and check-out were painless and the staff were friendly. The included breakfast was fine, with both hot and cold items. There are many chain restaurants in the area of the hotel, and readily accessible shopping areas nearby. I will stay here again when in the area.

Stayed for a quick night on my way to Seneca Lake the next day. During the current health situation, I was curious to see how certain things would be done and was pleased with how Marriott and this property's staff responded. Used the Marriott app on my phone to check in prior to arrival. Once I entered the hotel, there was ample signage to wear a mask, sanitize, and social distance. Greeted warmly and was asked to just verify my credit card on the reservation and was handed key packet, advised of breakfast in the morning and the pool/fitness center being closed, and sent on my way. Arrived in room, wiped everything down (for my peace of mind) and noticed the room in good order and everything looked cleaned. Bed was very comfortable, air conditioning was mostly quiet, and noise level from surrounding rooms was not very noticeable (except the loud car driving through the lot outside). Hotel is located in a shopping center with Walmart, Cracker Barrel, Red Robin, Ulta, Dicks Sporting Goods, Kohls, and others. Close by to Target, Dunkin, Starbucks, and Panera Bread as well as the mall a short drive away with other restaurants. Quick on and off rte 17. Checked out by Marriott app, dropped keys in container near front desk and was on my way. Breakfast buffet was not available but there were bags available at desk in morning which included water, oranges, muffins, and granola bars. Keeping this hotel in mind the next time I need a quick stay for the area.

I booked 2 rooms but the hotel give me just one room. Overall it was ok.

Room was good sized for a couple. Kitchen efficiency was handy - full size fridge. We ordered out (Outback Steakhouse next door - 10% discount w key card) but it was nice to have plates/silverware, etc. One bed was super comfortable, the other not so much - felt like there was a hole in one of the sleeping sides. Convenient USBs on the nightstand. Hotel was clean. Everyone friendly. We had a dog with us and our room was right next to the side door, so that was very convenient. There was a nice lawn outside for him to play on. Bathroom was well stocked and good pressure/temp in the shower. Walls did seem to be thin, esp at night - we could hear kids running above us, could hear others in the hallway, toilets flush, etc., but the hotel was pretty quiet overall, so it wasn't really an issue.

From the moment I made my reservations over the phone until I checked out of the hotel, my experience was excellent. I spoke to Rosemary, the manager when making my reservations. She was very pleasant and professional, providing me with all the information I needed for booking two rooms. I explained that several other family members would also be calling to make reservations, as we were attending a family funeral. Each person who spoke with her, had nothing but positives to say about their interactions. As we each arrived at the hotel, she and Scott, who was working the desk, went out of their way to insure that all our needs were met. The rooms were clean and spacious and the hotel itself was very quiet. The complimentary breakfast buffet was much more extensive that ones we have had at other hotels. We had a number of adults and children taking advantage of the offerings. The woman who was responsible for supervising the breakfast area kept everything full so that we all had plenty to eat and drink. She was very personable, checking to see that we all had what we needed. I cannot say enough positive things about our stay. There seems to be a real culture of genuine care and concern for those staying at the Fairfield Inn in Corning.
