Not a good experience

Reviewed By najwac2016

The rooms are very old and dated . Wallpaper pealing from the walls and stains on the wall as well.The TV remote doesnt work well. The carpet has a weird smell. I arrived on time for my reservation only to be vi en a double queen room instead of the King room that I booked. When I asked the person at the front desk about it all she could say was " I'm sorry the people in the King room extended their stay and there is nothing I can do about it." I asked how they planned to compensate me and she just gave me a blank stare and said that it's the only room that they had left ( disregarding the fact i was on time for my reservation), I bought my own pillow and blankets from the store down the street. I'm here for 2 nights and I am ready to go , but there are no more motels or hotels in this town. This qas supposed to be a quiet getaway. I will update qhen I leave

Great Stay

Reviewed By tfqmnc939930

We have been coming to this property for a few years since both my daughters attended IC. This last stay, was another great experience. Graduation Weekend is normally very stressful but the staff went out of their way to help us secure additional accomodations for some additional guests we had. The rooms were clean & comfortable. The staff was friendly & helpful. They even steered us to a great place to eat. The location has ALWAYS been our favorite…right across from our beloved Wegman’s! It is less than 15 min from Ithaca College, 10min from downtown & central to shopping. Great pricing & comfortable beds. I look forward to returning!!!

Charming, comfy

Reviewed By museum-a-day

We highly recommend the Longhouse. It's very old-fashioned, with not-new furnishings, but clean. We got a bit spooked when reading reviews (after booking) about guests partying loudly and smoking on the rocking chair filled long verandah that runs in front of all the rooms. But no such problems on the night we were there. Families & kids socialized in the evening; everyone quietly off to bed by 10 pm. Our room was very large, including a big wheelchair- accessible bathroom, and a small fridge, microwave, dining table and plushly upholstered reading chairs. Not sure if all rooms have these amenities, so ask in advance, if wanted. The staff were very pleasant and helpful, including with thoughtful recommendations for restaurants in town.

Pros: View - gorgeous Access - a bit tricky at first, then we've got it Friendliness of owner - very much so The room - spartan; hard floors (a plus!), tiny shower, comfy beds, good TV, good Internet service Cons: 1. Bathroom can use hooks for towels by sink and by shower 2. Blanket is wool - have you got allergies? 3. Mattress and pillows have no bug covers - had a massive dust mite allergy attack and did not stay for second night 4. Found a few crawlies on the floor - heck, you are close to the woods there...
