The inn is located in an old building. The windows are not sound proof, it felt like we were sleeping on the street. This was my main problem, the rest was alright.

Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry you had a noisy neighbor. We have an overnight innkeeper for any issues that may arise overnight. Out in the country most things are not walking distance. However, within 1/2 mile of the inn there are walking trails, two restaurants, a microbrewery, and two ice cream stands- not bad... Be well.

Thank you for staying with us and we appreciate your feedback. We are located in the center of a small town just 5 miles North of Ithaca- It is usually quiet at night. We apologize if you were disturbed. We do provide white noise machines in every room just in case. Be well. Hope to see you again soon.

Noisy traffic , hotel was quiet. Breakfast was not great. We had hard small bagels and cream cheese to start and then scrambled eggs and dry fried potatoes. We did not go to the breakfast any of the other days we were there. (4nights). The room and bathroom were clean and were large. The shower worked well. But the building seems to be tilting. The floor in our too room noticeably slanted down which was a little disconcerting. The staff was helpful .

Thank you for staying with us and we appreciate your feedback. Sorry you didn't love our homefries, eggs or toasted bagel and that you decided try our blueberry pancakes the next day. Our national landmark inn has been operating almost 200 years and passes every annual health and safety inspection with flying colors. Slighly sloping floors are par for the course when you're this old...

It's a building from the 1800's that was nicely decorated and lots of history. Three stories without an elevator, no staff except for 2 hour window to check in, and little explanation of what is available on site.

Exceptional experience
Historic, quaint hotel. Comfortable & clean. As with all historic/old inns, you can hear boards creak, the radiator kick on or the movement of other guests...our room came equipped with a white noise machine, but to be honest, we didnt use it. We love to stay in historic inns and consider certain noises par for the course. The front desk employee was excellent -welcoming and friendly. The hotel adjourns a pub which has great food and a fantastic selection of beer as well as wine. Our room [#6] was beautiful and just as the pics online advertised. The ballroom for breakfast was lovely. It was a wonderful, romantic little retreat for my husband and I.

Room was big and convenient. Bathroom was clean. Very small shower and very limited shampoo and conditioner, especially for a room that accommodates three, but not enough for two. Pipes clanked all night and traffic was very noisy in the morning. Check-in was slipshod: didn't check ID and didn't give us the access code for the outside door until we asked about it. Breakfast was nicely served. Pancakes were cold.

Understood this place has an abundant history. However, it’s way too noisy. You can hear outside traffic; sounds from upstairs, next doors, downstairs, not to mention Huge sounds from wall AC.The worst thing is the smell - the smoky smell from the Kitchen making you feel you are sleeping in the kitchen. My wife is unhappy and so am I.
