Positief: Netheid, personeel en service, voorzieningen en staat van de accommodatie en faciliteiten
If you are looking for a charming, interesting, and perhaps odd hotel, this is a great place. We were on a college trip, and I didn't want a standard, cookie-cutter hotel room. I knew a bit about the Oneida utopian community, and I assumed this was a converted mansion and would feel like a hotel or B&B, but this is a combination museum/apartment complex with a few hotel rooms. You can clearly see and feel that this was a utopian community (let's be honest - we would call this a cult today.) As a guest, I could visit the museum for free, and it was fascinating. Meeting rooms, the library, museum rooms, etc. are all open to see. The library is open all night and is filled with a variety of books. Our room had two beds, wildly tall windows, and a nice, huge bathroom. It definitely feels unique but also comfortable. I can't remember if there was a TV, but they leave a book for you to take home by someone who grew up in the community and ended up running the Oneida utensil company. Parking was easy, and you are in the middle of a lovely, safe, suburban area. The hotel is near the town that the Oneida company started, so you could also drive through there if you are interested in the company/community history. The staff are very nice and helpful and called to confirm my reservation. They also have a cute, tiny store where my daughter bought some jewelry made from Oneida utensils. We ate at a restaurant a 10 min drive away.
