Great location, small - but comfortable, well designed room, friendly staff. Good coffee in the am but no breakfast though plenty of walkable options nearby. Would stay again.

I stayed at the dorm hotel in a single room. It really did look just like a dorm room. The hotel is very cute and set up nicely. I only wish it had coffee all day. The coffee service doesn’t start until 8 AM which for me was pretty late.

I have to admit I was skeptical of this place due to the name but was pleasantly surprised. It was clean, well appointed, beds were so comfortable, and cozy, not to mention cute. If I am back in town, I'll definitely stay there again.

The rooms aren't really designed for business, the working/sitting areas in the rooms is minimal (I've stayed in about 6-7 different rooms). Beds are fine, shower is straight down from the ceiling

Let’s start with the positives. This was a super unique and cool hotel to stay in. It was very clean, updated, and the person running the front desk while we were there was super nice. Now for the big negative - you can hear EVERYTHING and I don’t just mean the usual noise in a hotel.

What an awesome hotel - everything was so well thought out, from the self-serve taps in the lobby, newly renovated rooms, very friendly and helpful staff - would stay here again in a heartbeat!

The Dorm Hotel has undergone a major refurbishment, the bedrooms albeit quite small are well equipped (air conditioning, electricity, good shower). The staff is very helpful and friendly. Free coffee and teabags are offered and there is a choice of snacks and alcoholic beverages.
I highly recommend the hotel to anyone looking to visit friends or relatives studying at Cornell University.

6.0
I was very pleasantly surprised when I saw the makeover of the interior of the building compared to when I had last been in there over a decade ago. My room was clean, modern and efficient, but I was really let down by an issue with a building-wide vibration due to an air conditioner that sounded like a washing machine on the spin cycle. This went on throughout my entire stay. When I told the person at the front desk about it, they had obviously heard about it before, so that leads me to believe that it has been an ongoing issue. They did try to find me another room. Unfortunately it was the one right next door to mine and it had the same problem.
I'm assuming that this will be fixed soon and when it is, I would then give the hotel a very high rating.

Its a cozy hotel built into a big old New England house that gives a modern dorm feel on Cornell's quiet campus.

Totally awesome little big house. Nice clean rooms and much bigger than you would think. Enjoyed our room, the staff were incredibly friendly, and the place had some unique items to grab and go if needed

It’s was a great experience in a room set up like a dorm! The uniqueness of the wall art committed to Cornell was amazing. The whole concept and experience was awesome. Would do it again! It is literally at one of the exits/entrance to Cornell.

Very cool place. Staff super helpful! Room while spartan, was clean and functional! The high bed against the wall is probably better for a younger person, but I can still climb!

I loved the cornell/dorm decor. It was inspiring and everything was neat and welcoming. Friendly and helpful staff. Ty and Cat were great! The self pour bar was very unique and had different options to enjoy every night. I stayed for 2 weeks and the ambiance was so chill I felt like at home.

The hotel and the room are exactly as in the pics. The whole place is Cornell themed ans well done too. The room and bed were comfortable and spacious enough for 1 person. The beer on tap in the common area is very cool. Wouldn't mind staying again on my next trip. Shout out to the wonderful Kat for being so nice and chatty.
