We came here in the summer of 2018 and had a great time - so we decided to take a shot at Clueville Christmas while the kids were on winter break. We had 3 adults, 2 teenagers, and 2 younger kids (10 and 12) and again it was a ton of fun. Lots of puzzles and riddles, and enough going on that everyone was able to contribute, find clues, figure out what to do with them....would definitely recommend this place! As an aside, they also have restrooms, coffee/water, small lockers for belongings if needed, and the folks that run it are so friendly! The whole experience is 100% worth it and we plan to come try out another room!

I would like to thank the very helpful staff for being extremely helpful and accommodating when we were down from Canada and needed a new hotel room with no notice. The front desk staff both when I called and when we arrived were wonderful and helped turn our awful day into a great one. The hotel is new and clean - great room with a view of the track. Very comfortable beds, slept like a dream. The hotel was also very quiet - we received complimentary vouchers for the casino which was a lot of fun to try and a lovely breakfast was included as well as free ample parking. Thank you Batavia Downs - we will be back!
