Super 8 by Wyndham Liverpool/Syracuse North Airport
A great place, but it's a bit noisy at night; people don't turn down the TV. But overall, it's wonderful.

The Parkview Hotel
I had a good stay. Nothing was amiss, no bugs, and the staff was friendly enough. There really aren’t any amenities, though. Not even a vending machine. Either way, it’s down the street from the hospital I was working at so I’ll stay there again in May if possible.
