Loved this hotel for the price, decor and access to downtown Iticha. The The tv was also very nice and had access to all of the apps with a good sound system. The live jazz on Wednesday is also a plus. Another nice thing is the coffee maker. All in all this hotel is one of the best I have stayed in.

Eric

Disliked: Staff & service
The Argos Inn was a big disappointment, as was the town of Ithaca. The man that greeted us at check-in had no sense of hospitality and seemed totally blasé; that put a damper on our stay. The room, vastly overpriced, was small and noisy, due to the loud patrons from the downstairs bar and the lack of soundproofing. Overall, the inn lacks charm and character, and has zero amenities. It parallels the center of the town unfortunately and a sense of urban decay floats in the air. Don't waste your time and money...
