I've stayed here many, many times. The rooms are clean and comfortable. There was a fairly recent renovation to the rooms and they look more updated. This is literally on the AU Campus and is close to all things Alfred and the surrounding areas. The staff has alway been very friendly.

We visited Alfred University for their Open House this past weekend. It was perfect to be staying right on campus at the Saxon Inn. We were greeted nicely and our room was perfect. The staff was very accomodating with local maps, ideas for dinner, and made us feel welcomed. It was a three minute walk to the Open House and... More

This is a great place to stay if you are in Alfred! It's right on the Alfred University campus which is convenient because typically the only reason to go to Alfred is for the two colleges there - haha. We were there for a soccer tournament and found the Inn a very comfortable place to stay. Our queen room was... More

If you're visiting Alfred Univ. with your son or daughter, this is the place to stay. This is a newly constructed two-story hotel with a real quality small-hotel feel. The lobby is airy and welcoming; the breakfast room was bright. We had the "deluxe" room with two full-sized beds in a medium-sized room. No fridge or coffee maker -- but... More

Warm and friendly place to stay. Very convenient for access to Alfred University. Easy parking and the surrounding grounds were beautiful during the fall and spring. Enjoyed the cucumber water served every evening and the continental breakfast was first class!

The Saxon Inn remains a great spot for overnight stays while at AU, Sharon and the entire staff are always friendly and willing to help make your stay most enjoyable. We stay here everytime we can, but being small they do fil up quickly so book in advance so you will not be disappointed.

The only thing missing in the room was a mini fridge and microwave. Other than that the room served it's purpose! It would be great if the Inn could add more rooms or another one because they get booked fast! Car service from the bus stop would be great! Although the walk is good after a long ride!
