The Inn on Columbia is a great choice for couples traveling to Ithaca. It is a lovely home and the room was very comfortable. Madeline's breakfasts were outstanding and we loved having Olive greet us in the morning! It's also a short walk down to the Commons where there's plenty of things to do. Highly recommend!

Our stay here was absolutely wonderful! The accommodation was extremely comfortable and the host went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Their warm hospitality truly made our trip special. The homemade breakfast each morning was a real highlight - freshly prepared, delicious, and the perfect way to start our day. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for both quality lodging and genuine local hospitality!
