As other reviewers have mentioned, the room was spotless. Yes, it’s a little spartan, but has everything you need. Bed very comfortable. Fresh bagels in the morning. Check in was efficient and owner very kind. Only downside for me was the noise of the heating unit, next time I’ll be sure to pack my ear plugs. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again and have recommended it to my family.

Very professional and easy process. My only complaint was that I was running quite late for check-in (10:00 p.m.), and it was very difficult obtaining a direct line phone # for the front desk in order to inform I was still enroute. I did not have breakfast, so did not rate that.

Clean rooms, felt safe and secure. It's good if you have a car, but if you do not prepare to uber everywhere. The bus only runs every so often to downtown. Overall, I would stay again; it's a great spot for the price

For the price, was great. Was small room but enough for us. Clean, comfortable bed and shower. Nicely renovated. Appreciate the microwave and refrigerator. Basic continental breakfast was fine. 15 minutes to get to Cornell univ. 20 minutes to town of Ithaca. Went for hiking and scenery in the Finger lakes. Was wonderful driving around.

The staff accommodation and room cleanliness were far better than my expectation. Came in late on a flight and got into my room With no issues. Patrick behind the deck made sure I was good to go with key and wifi access. Updated, comfortable rooms. Would stay here again.
