I was apprehensive upon check-in. Rooms were small and cramped, but clean and comfortable. Wifi was weak. The site was older but is being updated and cared for. new TV, AC, sidewalks, and windows. Overpriced, but at the time, I could find nothing else suitable. Stand-up shower had ample hot water. Would stay there again at a lower price.

Reasonable priced stay

I was in town for a reunion of my high school classmates and only staying one night. Price was reasonable. My surprise was how efficient, clean, and attractive was my room and the outside area. A nice continental breakfast was also supplied. The owner I dealt with was very friendly and helpful. Above and beyond I call it. No wonder they are listed as AAA.

Great stay for an economy hotel. Clean and appropriately maintained. The location is a bit out-of-the-way, but that is actually — for us — a bonus.

It was a place to sleep, and we were beyond exhausted by the time we got there but would have been better off taking a nap at a rest stop -- we didn't use the shower anyway because it was dirty. $100 to get a 4 hour nap in a damp room. We cracked the front door at 6am just for a breeze and extra light... Front desk had to be told multiple times our daughters were literally getting dressed and he just kept standing there. We'll be back to that area because it's gorgeous, but I wouldn't recommend this place unless you're traveling solo and don't care about a decent shower

The Inn is on a main road and noise from cars going by is constant. The room seemed clean but pretty run down. We arrived late and left early so it was fine but I dont think I'd enjoy a longer stay.

We always stay here when in Ithaca. It is always clean, & the staff are friendly & helpful. The property is a single-floor facility, & is located just outside the city, which is a plus for us.

Where the room was dated it was super clean and that's the most important thing to me, I don't really care about the lastest look in room design is, I just want a clean one. All amenities worked great, the wifi was a little slow but we just made the tablet a hotspot and problem solved. Location is close to all kinds of shopping, food and buttermilk falls. The gentleman at the desk at check in was just the sweetest man too. Would definitely stay again.
