One day in November 1999, Toni and Curt Feldmann were driving west on Route 20, heading to Auburn to buy steamed clams. They passed the dilapidated Anchor Motel and noticed it was for sale.

Neither had experience in the hospitality industry. Toni was a controller/accountant who had lost her job to a corporate buyout; Curt sold hardware.

No matter. The couple bought the motel the following morning. Within six months, they had converted 12 small rooms into six “savvy traveler bungalows,” offering super-premium bedding, kitchenette, private patio, ceramic baths, stereo and cable TV; WiFi was added later. Many of the rooms have two-person Jacuzzi tubs.

Now, 10 years later, the motel has grown to become Skaneateles Suites & Boutique Hotel http://www.skaneatelessuites.com , and the Feldmanns have hosted more than 15,000 guests at their properties on Route 20 and at 12 Fennell St. Toni is innkeeper and Curt is captain of the Suite Dreams Team, vice president of guest relations and “the laundry guy.”
