Stayed at this hotel for a wedding in Cooperstown--picked because this was where most of the family stayed. Good room, clean comfortable. Basic breakfast, though they did run out of waffle batter and closed the doors promptly at the designated time---found that to be a bit annoying as most places I have been simply stop serving and start cleaning up rather than shut the door. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful.

“A Good Trip”

Best Western Inn and Suites at the Commons

May 19, 2008

We stayed at this hotel the weekend of 5-16-5/18. The people who worked there were courteous. The room was clean with plenty of room. It had all the amenities that were listed.
The refrigerator was larger than what I've had in other hotels. I liked the large size of the shower and the bath towels. The breakfast was plentiful with a large selection to choose from, including Belgium waffles that you make yourself, cereal, egg patties(that's what they called them and they were good)biscuits,sausage gravy,fruit, oatmeal,toast. They were still bringing out more food close to the time breakfast ended.
It was close enough to the Hall of Fame and there was a little strip mall next door with a restaurant(I think it was called O'Hanlons and it was good, and there was a supermarket. I would definitely stay there again if I was in that part of NY.

“Do Not Stay Here and Ruin Your Vacation”

Best Western Inn and Suites at the Commons

Apr 27, 2008
1/3 found this review helpful

I booked a room for myself and my 14 year old son for a special trip for his 14th birthday. The Best Western Inn and Suites and especially it's staff proceeded to ruin a good weekend in Cooperstown.
When checking in I was informed by a young man that the room that I booked(and was reassured at time of booking) was actually a smoking room. I was upset by that news, but refused to have it ruin the weekend so I let it go. The room was fair. The bed linens were old and pilled and I could not use the pillows they smelled foul.and discusting. So, o.k. we spent most of the time in the great little Main St area and I let that go. Sunday morning we got up and decided to utilize the "free" breakfast. We arrived in breakfast room a bit past 9:00. We were told that breakfast was available until 9:30. NO coffee, minimal food, a few containers of stale pastry and warm canned fruit. It was AWFUL. I asked the man if he could make more coffee and he very rudely told me NO. Drink decaf. RUDE! I wentto the manager who's name is "Scott" and he came out and I explained that It was my understanding breafast was until 9:30. Yes, at this point I was upset. He proceeded to tell me to "Get out of his face" This manager is rude and ignorant and should not be in the hotel business. DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL. IT IS AWFUL AND MANAGEMENT IS RUDE. STAY NEXT DOOR AT THE HOLIDAY INN EXPRESS. My friends stayed there and loved it.

The room was VERY dirty. There was dust on everything. The bedding had a foul smell. The pool was green and had paint chips in it from the sides of the wall. We contacted the hotel and to this date have not contacted us back. If you want to feel like you are sleeping outdoors in the dirt then stay here. But if you expect a clean room find another hotel.

1/1 found this review helpful

My wife, 7 yr old son and I stayed one night in mid February, as a base to visit Howe's Caverns (approx. 45 minute drive). Standard room had microwave and small fridge, hairdryer and coffeemakers. Room was not fancy, but comfortable and clean (carpet seemed pretty new). Good sized, well functioning TV. Free breakfast buffet was fine including make your own waffles (batter, not frozen), steakhouse across the parking lot OK also. McDonald's within short walk. Pool on the small side, but clean enough and good for children (max 5 feet deep). Hot tub close by pool, easy to keep an eye on the smaller ones.
This place isn't the Ritz for sure, but if you're looking for a decent 3 1/2 star hotel to hang your hat for a day or two, it's fine. Not sure why other reviews so negative.. if we were going to be back in this area, we would definitely return. Ideal location for Baseball Hall of fame.
