I visit Cortland almost once every two months to do work on the SUNY Campus. This last time I decided to try the Econo because it looked new. The place is great. I was offered a reasonable rate (so reasonable, in fact, that I asked to see the room to make sure that the room had everthing in order). My room was lovely - plus, it had a telephone, a new looking TV, and, most importantly, a comfortable mattress. I was also happy to learn that the place had hi-speed wifi in all the rooms (with no extra charge) so I didn't have to deal with downloading my e-mails at dial-up speeds. In the morning, they offered fresh bagels with their free breakfast (a big plus for me, because I hate places that claim to offer a free breakfast, but then end up serving stale stuff from two days before). If your travels take you through Cortland, I definitely suggest the Econo Lodge!
