Room temperature bad-service was excellent.
Temperature control didn’t work. Desk clerks evaluated and offered me a new room. Resolution was quick and easy. Excellent service.

Over priced for facility
The experience was below average considering the cost of room. Will not be staying there again and possibly not booking on hotels.com

Ithaca prices are ridiculous. The price for a mediocre room in an aging hotel with few amenities was definitely more than it was worth.

Better than average 2-3 star hotel, not a bad place to stay at typical reasonable rates, BUT prices were super inflated for a Cornell football game and Homecoming. Surrounding area was nondescript however it was close to cool stuff downtown and a short 15min walk to Buttermilk Falls State Park

8/10 Very Good

Loved the fact that there was a free breakfast. The property was in a good location. The staff was very friendly. I wish the bathroom had a bit more room between the toilet and the sink. Also, the bed bumped up next to an outlet and the bipap my husband uses stopped working because it came out of the wall a bit.

We were traveling with oùr dog. They accommodated us very well. The property on the outside is not impressive but the room was very clean. It even smelled clean. We are traveling that way again and will gladly stay there.

6/10 Good

This is a very basic hotel. It’s clean and kind of what you’d expect. I was disappointed that the gym was out of commission so if that’s important, call ahead to see if it’s open. The staff was very nice but overwhelmed by the busyness of the breakfast rush (it was college move in day) which also meant the rates were rhigh then given demand.

6/10 Good

No hair dryer in my room and when I contacted the front desk I was advised that only certain rooms had them and they didn’t have any additional ones at the motel we could use. Also, the key to our room deactivated daily and we had to visit the front desk each day to have the key reset. Mattresses made noises, probably due to age.

4/10 Fair

The sheets were not changed during our entire 4 night stay despite repeatedly asking for it - there were stains on the top sheets so we knew they were the same sheets . The rooms aand the bathrooms smelled and we had to ask for room service everyday otherwise the rooms would not be cleaned or the beds made. The staff were very very nice but the room condition left a lot to be desired

**Hotel Review: Unacceptable Accessible Room** Our stay at this hotel was a mix of disappointment and relief. Initially, we were assigned a handicap accessible room located right behind the front desk. This room lacked a room number and felt more like a utility closet than a proper hotel room. Despite not being wheelchair-bound, it was clear that a wheelchair would have had no space to maneuver in that cramped area. There was no desk, very little space to move around the bed, and the bed itself was unacceptable – it felt like a prison cot with a plastic outer cover and an incredibly thin sheet that made every spring painfully evident. Upon realizing that not all rooms were like this, the friendly staff promptly found us an acceptable room, which significantly improved our experience. However, had we been forced to stay in the original room, our weekend would have been completely ruined. It is disheartening to think that this room is considered accessible for people with disabilities. The hotel needs to address this issue to ensure that all guests, regardless of their needs, are provided with a comfortable and dignified stay.
