Ithica was two worlds - both fantastic
Ithica was wine tours with cheese and chocolates one day and scenic hikes with waterfalls and cascades the next.
Both activities were nearby and equally memorable. However, the first day went to our heads and the second to our tired feet.
The hotel was a pleasant place to return to refresh, rest and plan our next adventure.
Breakfast was more than expected with eggs, sausages, waffles, toast and more.
Great value and location.

Conveniently located, overall a very fair value. Very friendly reception. Complimentary breakfast was good, but oddly there were no forks, and none on hand at all. Would stay again.

Good overall value
It was clean, quiet, and comfortable. However, they ran out of basic breakfast items. Overall, it was a good value, and I would stay there again.

Worth the stay
I just needed to crash for a few hours while traveling. This place is right in the middle of downtown and walking distance to everything. The continental breakfast was one of the best. And for the price much worth it

The front desk was helpful, and I had no gripe with the room. My only main issue was that the showers did not have a barrier protecting the water from splashing onto the bathroom floor, making most of the floor wet afterward. I would stay here again, preferably for one night.

Very mediocre hotel.
Very mediocre hotel. Stayed here at insanely inflated prices for my graduation from Cornell. Over 800 a room for a single night. Very average breakfast. Bagel, toast, waffle maker, eggs, sausage, orange and apple juice, and some yogurt. Stains were on most furniture pieces. Small TV in the room. Looks like they had a hair dryer, but the space was empty in my room. The GF I outlet in the bathroom was absolutely disgusting looking. Had lots of stuff called up on it. Hotel has no amenities. This hotel should only be considered for the three S's (sleeping, showering, sh!trying). Would have gone anywhere else if I could. It's better than a Motel 8, but that's just because of the people, not necessarily the service.
