Radisson Hotel Corning

Radisson Hotel Corning

8/10 Good
"Overall, very nicely nice stay. The woman checking us in was extremely helpful and friendly. The room and hallway could use a little bit of an update, but overall the room was spacious and had everything I needed. Breakfast was good, service was friendly but very slow, but I it was due to staffing more than the servers as it was very busy. Overall, I would stay here again without a doubt."
