Nice boutique hotel

Surprisingly new, modern, aesthetically pleasing , very roomy and clean small boutique hotel in the heart of Watkins Glen. The bathrooms are spacey with high ceilings and great shower! The bed is comfortable. You have a full kitchenette and the owners also own a winery and a small bar downstairs and welcome you with a complimentary bottle of Riesling!
