7.6/10 Good! (1,028 reviews)
Pleasant, clean, and the amenities were a nice surprise, particularly the indoor and outdoor pools. Breakfast was better than what you find at some of the chain hotels as they actually have items like freshly cooked eggs, home fries, sausage and french toast. The place is a bit outdated but if you’re willing to look past that, it’s a nice option for a stay in Ithaca.

Come in the evening and make your way to the overlook for a perfect view of sunset. #mybackyard
