Location is right off Route 20 and easily visible even at night. It was also surprisingly quiet for being near Route 20. The room, bathroom and linens were all very clean and the room was well kept and very tidy. There was a sliding glass door in the back of the room that allowed for good airflow with the window open. ||The owner, Austin, was great to work with, easygoing, open to communication and as accommodating as he could possibly be. I have a severe sensitivity to chemicals, odors and fragrances that results in a severe asthma attack when encountered. Austin was very understanding and did his best to work with me by removing anything fragranced from the room prior to our arrival, aired it out to the best of his ability and washed the linens in just water after their normal wash cycle to try to minimize the scent from the laundry soap, I believe he even did the same with the curtains.||Unfortunately, my allergies were still too reactive to the fragrances that remained and I was unable to stay for the entire duration scheduled. Again, Austin was very understanding and accommodating when cutting our stay short was the end result. So while I was not able to stay as long as intended, the experience overall was still a positive one. Thank you Austin for your kindness and understanding, those are qualities I don't often encounter with my disability, hopefully one day I will be able to try...

We were coming from the east end of upstate NY and were heading to Cooperstown so we wanted something fairly close and since we are procrastinators most places were booked. We saw the reviews and decided to call. Fortunately there was a room available and we took it. So glad we did. We decided to stay two nights to do Cooperstown one day and the Rail Riders the next.||Austin, the owner, made us feel welcomed and was happy to help with any questions we had. The room was clean and comfortable and the bathroom was excellent. Large and well stocked. Had a minor glitch with the internet but it was fixed very quickly. The breakfast was wonderful with lost of beverage choices, local fruit and Austin making waffles. He really is a great host and want's to make sure your stay is pleasant. |The grounds are great though we didn't take advantage of them. There is a nice big gazebo out back and a fire pit and he's even got a small baseball diamond for the kids to play on as they get a lot of families staying with them whose kids are playing tournaments nearby.|I can't recommend The Meadowlark Inn enough.
