Okay, I've never stayed at the Hawthorn Suites down there, but I've stayed at a bunch of others. Awesome hotel chain!! Big rooms at a good price. The one in Syracuse actually has DVD players in every room and DVDs you can take out at the front desk. The one in Burlington has free breakfast buffet (real food: eggs, bacon, etc.) and free hors d'ouevres in the afternoon (once again, real food: taco night, bbq night, burger night, etc.). I am really impressed with these guys and hope they continue to grow the chain.
