Old dirty hotel. Room had wet/musty smell. Floors were dirty. I had to use wipes to clean floor of dirt, hair and food crumbs from prior visitors. Seems like they don't vacuum or sweep floors. Glad i was alone and not w my family. To say the least, i will not be staying herevagain.

I stayed here for several days for business purposes because of its convenient location. The property is in need of updating, which I normally would not mind. However, my room had a musty odor and a residual smell of cigarettes (despite a non-smoking sign). Breakfast included options that you would find in a continental breakfast. Front desk service was okay.

Hello and thank you for writing your review. I apologize for the lack of housekeeping experienced. At the very moment housekeeping is by request due to short staff. That should have been explained to you at check in and I'm very sorry if it wasn't. I do hope you will give us another chance so that we may give you a much better experience.

The staff were very helpful and kind! My room was okay and had everything I needed, but I think some updating needs to be done for the price/what you get. It felt more like a motel at times, which is fine, but for the price point, I expected more. Overall, it's a nice option when in Ithaca!

Clean but outdated with lots of technology issue.
The hotel was fine but outdated. Clean enough but our TV and phone didn't work. Not only wasn't the phone plugged in, but there wasn't a place to even plug it in... and the clerk acted shocked when I mentioned the phone didn't work, but they had to be aware of the issue. The gentleman at check-in was very nice and friendly and helpful, but the woman at check-out was abrupt and rude. Did not feel at all that we got the value of what we paid for.

While the place is very clean and the staff is friendly and competent, the place could use some attention. There were two dead trees on the parking lot that need to be removed. The towel rack had rusty spots, the paint on the bathroom mirror frame was pealing, and the door latch was broken.

At first the TV didn't work to change channels but the lady at the desk helped me resolve that quickly and efficiently. The AC wasn't super cold, but to be fair it was a heat wave and perhaps the power company reduced the power.
