The Saxon Inn is located on the campus of Alfred University. My son was visiting the university to determine if he wants to attend this coming fall. We arrived after midnight and someone was on call to greet us, after I had called ahead and let the property know we would be checking in after midnight. The room was cozy, shower was warm and the beds were comfortable. We did not experience the warm breakfast due to our schedule for the day.

Great place to stay overnight for a quiet stay. It would be better to have more options for the breakfast but fair enough with what is already there.

Very quiet, great breakfast, Lovely property and great staff. What I didn't like was EXPEDIA leading me on by asking for my credit card at the time of booking. Silly me, I thought I was paying for my stay, as I seldom use that card, I knew I had enough to pay for the room, and thought that's what I was doing. NOT THE CASE. So I had to scramble at check-in because I owed $482.00 the regular room rate rather than the deal I thought I HAD gotten using Expedia. NOT a happy camper was I. Thank you very much.
