Ithaca Hotels with Pools

Ithaca is hotel challenged to begin with, it’s not unheard of to pay $220 plus dollars to stay at the Rodeway - granted it’s remodeled - but it’s still a motel people. Having stayed at nearly all the economically priced options in ithaca here’s the truth - it’s slim pickings and those pretty photos they post - it’s usually a bold face bordering on ridiculous lie - the Quality Inn is no different. There are many vagrants in the parking lot all night, just having a good ole time. In the morning are the remnants and litter of Natural Ice cans and HUNDREDS of cigarette buts stacked in an ashtray. It’s really truly bad. I know it’s cheap. But Unless you’re stuck, do your best to avoid it. The staff. The saving grace was the nightshift woman. She seemed genuinely personable and caring. But that’s it. The others? From John to all the daytime ladies - well, someone must of crushed all their dreams, because they’re mopey bordering on angry. The highest level of service you should expect is for them to tolerate your presence in their lobby. Go ahead - you smile, be kind, ask them how they’re day is. If you get above resting bitter face consider yourself lucky. If you get a “have a nice day” you must have achieved pinnacle status of Choice points. If by some miracle they break a smile - it’s probably at you. I was there four days - they don’t greet you from the front desk - you’ll greet them when they arrive from whatever cave they hide in because they’re never at the front unless they have to be. It’s pretty clear none of them want to be there - can’t say I blame them. If your magnet key fails (as 5 of mine did, and the person’s behind me as well) there is a 100% chance that John will say to you “well, you must have deactivated it.” Doesn’t matter that you carefully guarded it from every magnet and electrical field on planet Earth. Even if you stored it in a hermetically sealed box John will let you know - it’s definitely your fault. Because it’s impossible for their grime filled worn to crap 1990 magic magnetic encoder could be the source of the issue. The room: the bed was comfortable - The pillows were good and it looked clean. Then there’s that delightful jacuzzi bath for your aching back. Well, you better be prepared to clean that sucker, cause evidently no one else will. Perhaps a discount for each glop of hair? You make peace with the fact that things are worn and dated at this price point, but why can’t they be clean? See the photo of the floor - I thought it was wet in two large spots, but it’s some kind of polyurethane spill (that’s what I’m telling myself, you can touch it if you want to know. I won’t.) There’s other problems too - but that’s enough. I checked out two days early. They kept one night’s payment. That’s the way it goes!

Everyone was kind and courteous, from the valet to the front desk to our waiter during breakfast. We asked if we could possibly get the view facing the clock tower, and we were moved to the 9th floor. The room was very clean and had the view we were hoping for. The beds were comfortable; all was quiet at night. We enjoyed our breakfast the following morning. This was a nice experience for my son who was visiting the university. The location can't be beat!

The rooms in lobby were super clean and spacious. Complementary coffee was available at the front desk in the morning. You could dine at the restaurant indoors or outdoors which we did not take advantage of. The hotel's in a perfect location downtown so we checked out the restaurants in the area

For the children to go to Cornell University summer research, compare several hotels in Ithaca, and finally choose this cost-effective one. In the past, there were more choices of Hilton hotels, and this one did not disappoint us. The child arrived at noon on July 28th and had not yet arrived at check-in time. The front desk staff was very friendly and welcoming and checked in immediately, allowing the child to rest after dozens of hours of boat and car straining. For a few days in the hotel, we can feel the thoughtful and meticulous service of the hotel, the quality of breakfast is also very good, and the need for defense under the epidemic has taken care of us thousands of miles away. The hotel is very close to Cornell University and college town. The child is very satisfied and willing to recommend this hotel to friends.

Can live! Don't ask for any quality! I saw the comments of the predecessors, thinking that the second floor rooms are better, not black, not tide, and ask for the second floor room in advance. When I arrived at the store, I was told that there was no elevator! Happy son is big! Help me with the box! Behind the travellers carefully choose.
