Room was very clean! Very small motel, small/narrow parking space. Noise from traffic made it hard to sleep, for a person that's a light sleeper.

Is this an old motel? Absolutely. Is it run down? Absolutely not. Yes, it has that 90s vibe with dated furniture, carpet, and an old-school phone, but it’s surprisingly well-kept. The sheets looked clean—no visible stains or hair (maybe I was lucky, but I appreciated it). Towels were neatly hung, and even the toilet paper was folded nicely. You can tell the owners put effort into upkeep, and everything in my room worked as it should—heat, hot water, hair dryer, etc. Of course, this isn’t the Hilton. If you’re expecting something fancy, this won’t be for you. But if you’re on a road trip or just need a place to sleep, this motel does the job well—and it’s one of the most reasonably priced options near Ithaca. I’d stay here again and would recommend it if you keep your expectations realistic.

Great stay for an economy hotel. Clean and appropriately maintained. The location is a bit out-of-the-way, but that is actually — for us — a bonus.

We always stay here when in Ithaca. It is always clean, & the staff are friendly & helpful. The property is a single-floor facility, & is located just outside the city, which is a plus for us.

Where the room was dated it was super clean and that's the most important thing to me, I don't really care about the lastest look in room design is, I just want a clean one. All amenities worked great, the wifi was a little slow but we just made the tablet a hotspot and problem solved. Location is close to all kinds of shopping, food and buttermilk falls. The gentleman at the desk at check in was just the sweetest man too. Would definitely stay again.

Reasonable priced stay

I was in town for a reunion of my high school classmates and only staying one night. Price was reasonable. My surprise was how efficient, clean, and attractive was my room and the outside area. A nice continental breakfast was also supplied. The owner I dealt with was very friendly and helpful. Above and beyond I call it. No wonder they are listed as AAA.

I was apprehensive upon check-in. Rooms were small and cramped, but clean and comfortable. Wifi was weak. The site was older but is being updated and cared for. new TV, AC, sidewalks, and windows. Overpriced, but at the time, I could find nothing else suitable. Stand-up shower had ample hot water. Would stay there again at a lower price.

Nice couple who own it. We have stayed here several times. Hotel is a bit run down but the beds are comfortable and rooms are clean. For the price, it is way worth it. If you are the type of picking mini who is going to complain because you want a five star hotel for a two star price, then stay somewhere else. If you want a clean comfortable place to sleep at a good price than this is the place for you.
