Great location. Good communication when we had questions. Only concern is bedding is one thin sheet with one thin bedspread. Not at all comfortable. Needs either a duvet or proper blankets. Also light from street keeps the room too light overnight in spite of blinds. Blackout blinds would be more effective. Otherwise a good and spacious, well equipped room and good value for the money.

Can't wait to go back!
This place was amazing! It was right in the center of all of the shops, restaurants, and bars in Corning. It was within walking distance to the Museum of Glass as well. The room itself was very cozy with a fireplace and leather couches. Staff at the Beer & Burgers restaurant below the room were extremely friendly and helpful when checking in. Parking was not an issue as there were plenty of spaces in the lot behind the Inn. My wife and I had a wonderful weekend there! We'll be back!

What a fun place to stay. From the outside you didnt know what to expect. Once inside it was very different. It was like being in a very nice NY studio apartment. The exposed brick walls were great. Quirky little place. Though i would suggest a yellow caution strip on the front step into the street.

Had a great stay at the Gaffer Inn. Lovely room, stayed in the Majestic Suite, nice big room, very comfy bed and couches. Close to all amenities and the burger restaurant was delicious with a great variety of drinks. Highly recommend a stay at the Gaffer Inn if you’re in Corning for a night or two.

Our room was amazing! Very spacious and had everything you would need. Would love to stay here again just to stay in the room and enjoy it. (Water went out in the whole bldg so I wasn't able to get a shower. Other than that, everything was excellent)

Two small issues.
Their entry system is new and needs a little work and the stairs to the 4 room inn is quite steep so be careful if
you have mobility problems.
The rooms were huge and well appointed and very quiet
despite the fact that they were above a resto/bar.
