Pros:

מלון נחמד קרוב בנסיעה ברכב לאוניברסיטה ולמפלים.

Cons:

מיטות לא כל כך נוחות. ספה נפתחת בסלון ממש לא נוחה לשינה. יש רעש מהכביש החל מ6 בבוקר, לא מאוד רציני אבל למי שסובל מרעש זה מפריע לשינה.

Midsummer Stay
Pros:

The staff was friendly and the room was comfortable, especially the bed and the pillows. I used the gym, which was very clean and well kept, the equipment is in good shape and I appreciate that they offer both water and towels. Overall the property is kept in good condition.

Cons:

Even though it's located on a hill by Cayuga Lake, the location has absolutely no view from the rooms. My two windows looked out on the backside of another building. Even acknowledging that housekeeping now comes in only every other day with an extended stay, I still had to contact the front desk twice on one of the days that housekeeping was supposed to come in before someone actually did come in at around 5:00 p.m. The second time housekeeping came in they didn't leave any toilet paper or Kleenex like they are supposed to, so I again had to go to the front desk for that. There was extreme heat the week we were visiting so we had to run the AC the entire time, and while I appreciate that there is AC in the room, the units were filled with gunk that got blown out onto the bed. Although breakfast runs until 9:30 every weekday morning, when I would get there between 9:00 and 9:15 half of the offerings were already gone and not replenished.

Very nice hotel!
Pros:

This was a well kept hotel. The rooms and main areas were clean and well appointed. The rooms were spacious. The free breakfast was a nice bonus and it was a full breakfast. The staff was very helpful. The hotel was only 15 minutes away from Ithica College and even closer to Cornell. Ithica is a beautiful place to visit with lots of beautiful gorges and waterfalls! Will come back to visit again!
