The hotel is the sort of place you'd hope to find after a long day's drive — very clean, comfortable, dark at night and quiet. No spectacular views on either side. The room we were assigned looked out onto an empty car park and a garbage bin, so we were glad that the staff member on the registration desk was able to find another room on the other side, which at least looked out at some lights and activity. Bathroom had a bath, and all the expected amenities—shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, tissues, hair dryer. Fortunately after having spent the last three nights at motels with bathroom lights that turned noisy fans on at the same time as lights, this one did not have a fan.
It was New Year's Eve the night we stayed, and we had arrived tired and hungry. We were hoping to order some take out asian food but discovered that there was nothing open in Utica with decent reviews. We eventually settled on going to the restaurant next to the hotel, Chesterfield's Tavolo, and had a wonderful meal served by very efficient staff, in a very lively and happy atmosphere.

I honestly didn't see Utica.
I honestly didn't see Utica. The hotel seemed to be at the edge of town, and I stayed here because it was along our road trip home, and near my friend's town, which didn't have suitable accommodation of its own. The neighbourhood didn't make any real impression on me, except that it was pretty easy to access from the turnpike.

Went for the Adirondack Train ride.
Went for the Adirondack Train ride. Other then that, didn't seem like there was much else to do there. Seemed like a Ghost town. No where to eat within walking distance of the hotel and the one restaurant in the hotel did not open according to posted hours. Seemed like hotel management was not aware of what was going on with the in house restaurant. It is my opinion, that when people travel they like to have some place to eat

Look and feel of an old Grand Hotel with all the modern upgrades needed in room. Love the blend between the two and the history of the site as well. Seemed upscale for the price and would definitely stay again if in area.

This was an overnight stay, off highway.
This was an overnight stay, off highway. Picked city from a map based on location relative to final destination. It's a tired town and the hotel is in a kind of nasty area. Just very industrial, amongst a sea of no-tell motels. There's a neat old hotel (another, better chain owns it) up about a mile. We wish we'd stayed there (we ate there).
The hotel itself is tired. It's clean, but it's had a hard life and this is clearly a "budget" hotel chain. The place was VERY loud. My wife went to the desk to have someone speak to the room (not wanting to make it a confrontational issue with the next room), there was no one there. She waited awhile, and another guest walked through. My wife gestured 'do you know where he is?' pointing to the counter, and the woman said, "oh, no idea," and rolled her eyes. Later, my wife had to speak to a loud family in the lobby area (our door was off that area, and the door was propped open (perhaps because the kids kept letting it slam shut). Mind you, this was well after 11PM.
So, long and short:
Utica -- not my bag, might be yours. Place seems tired.
Days Inn -- nope. Just don't.

The Econolodge was in a great location.
The Econolodge was in a great location. There was no continental breakfast due to the Pandemic, which I could understand. At least there were enough eateries close by. The room was very comfortable especially because the weather was very cold and windy outside. I will probably stay there again in the near future. It was nice that our dog was able to join us.

I came to Utica to share the loss of a family member.
I came to Utica to share the loss of a family member. My second visit in 20 years. Overall I found Utica as a small city trying to keep up with the modern era. There is a pastry shop on 5A that I was impressed with and found the local clientele very friendly. I feared a lot of vagrancy and homelessness, yet I did not see anyone to fear. I enjoyed driving through the western neighborhoods and seeing the old houses especially in Yorkville. It's pleasant to see how property owners have taken the initiative to improve their properties and showcase their houses. I was also impressed with the light traffic. Plenty of room to make your next turn. Food options are fantastic especially with the individual, family owned, restaurants. I want to go back again.
There's really about 3 things that we liked about our stay. The location of our event was number 1. The hotel was less than a mile from where we had our event. The great breakfasts were number 2. They had a full breakfast buffet selection both days we were there. The food was good and the coffee never ran out. The friendliness of the staff was number 3. Nadia ( I think that was her name) the front desk clerk was very nice and helpful and the other staff members we saw were always working.
The location is directly in Utica, which is helpful for road trip traveling and directions. The staff was very helpful, and recommended good places to eat and good things to do while I stayed there. Additionally, there were complimentary drinks and snacks available 24/7. The room was adorable with Victorian/historical vibe, as was the entire house. I also enjoyed the claw foot bathtub, as I'd never seen a working one before.
We stayed ten days while work was completed on our nearby home. Great experience!!! Front desk staff were wonderful, rooms very clean, comfy beds, and pillows, best sleep we’ve had in ages, very quiet. Nice breakfast and other amenities. We left a list of any items we needed refreshed on our door and they arrived at our door soon afterwards. This will definitely be our go to hotel when we return to the area.
This hotel seemed safe, reliable, and clean during the 8 hours I was there overnight on a roadtrip. It smells a little funky and the rooms are very dated, but hey, you get what you pay for, and this was the lowest price in town that was still available before the 2024 total solar eclipse. I appreciated the clean bedding and towels.
I was denied at the check in desk for check in and a room so I left to another hotel. They then fully charged me for a room I was denied and did not stay in. They will not refund me. It's a total scam and I will never stay in another one again.
Breakfast was great! Pool was very clean . Hotel was close to many restaurants , 2 are in walking distance from the front door. Staff was very pleasant, Extra towels and pillows were also a plus. Very clean rooms and facility.
An excellent B&B located in Utica, NY. The owners were very nice, accommodating, and solicitous of our well-being. The breakfast was excellent and individually tailored. We would definitely stay here again.
The hotel was clean and comfortable and as we had stayed there for a night a few days previously on the way to Niagra Falls we had liked it then so decided to stay again on the way back to Harrison, NY.
Breakfast was ok. Time restriction of 6-9:00 am was not normal for most travelers. The hotel location was in a secluded location and not comfortable for travelers from out of town.
Comfortable room conveniently located close to several restaurants/bars/fast food options. We usually stay here for the best day in Utica of the year - the BOILERMAKER!
The breakfast being included in the price is a plus that keeps bringing us back to this hotel when we are in town. There's a good variety of food to choose from.
