The bed was rock hard, pillows were crap and bath towels with not the best. Hall ways were loud from other guests yelling at all hours. However, the dining staff was very kind and coffee downstairs was delicious. There was not coffee in our room which was a bummer. The venue is beautiful and has great potential. We were looking forward to enjoying Azure, however the temperature in the lounge was in the 50s!! No thanks!

We were supposed to stay for 2 nights but left after one. The room was horrible and not worth the price nor the caliber described. The room had a smell. The bed and pillows were uncomfortable. We heard noises all hours of the night from hallway. The heat/ac coming on and off was very loud and did not properly regulate. The shower in the bathroom did not work. Walking down the hallway could see missing pieces of the wall and floor boards. We asked for a refund and still waiting for hotel reply. Best they could do was remove resort fee which is comical. Recommend not offering this hotel it’s a hoax and scam especially considering the price they charge per night.

William, owego

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
The hotel charged $428 a night, for a room that had wallpaper falling off the walls and no microwave. The chest refrigerator was on the floor not even on a cabinet. The sprinkler head trim was hanging from the ceiling. Then they charge you $100 a day to park your car or you have to park on the street for $3/hr. Then there was a domestic fight in the hallway @2am that lasted for an hour with no intervention from hotel staff or police. Then when we checked out the staff at the desk just took our room keys and handed us a receipt. They never asked how our stay was, or if everything went well with our stay, nothing!!

Needs updates
This is an older hotel and it has not been updated. The overall decor, and materials in room need to be replaced. It’s okay for being in Asbury, but would not book again at that price.

I think paying $75 per night to park when staying at the hotel is a little high. Maybe $75 for the 2 day stay makes a little more sense.

Service was very good and courteous. Cafe was excellent and the restaurant Azure was more like a strip club environment. However, the food and service were good. The room was dated, torn curtains and carpet near the bathroom as well. Also, much noise from the bar across the street until 3am on Friday night. The bathroom was also very dated but clean. Wondering if we were given this room because we have a dog? He is a support Dog and very well behaved and trained. We paid the extra "pet" fee and were expecting much better accommodations. The lobby was very comfortable and nicely decorated.
