We loved everything! From the easy and welcoming check in. The convenience location from Ithaca college. The perfect room (Gazebo) for our little chihuahua. To the perfect breakfast cooked fresh by Madeline and meeting new people. Thank you very much ❤️! Vivi
Lovely, quaint inn, with relaxing atmosphere.
The hosts were very helpful and welcoming.
Madeline, the inn keeper, served a great breakfast. All in all, awesome!
We recently went for an extended weekend trip and were very happy with our stay. The location is quiet and peaceful, yet just a short walk from the downtown area and its conveniences. The owners were personable and provided quality feedback and recommendations on locations to visit based on our questions and tastes.
The morning breakfasts were absolutely delicious and homey. We were so thrilled with the quality of the food every morning.
Everything was clean, uniquely decorated, and you could feel the owners' touch in the construction and layout.
If you're looking to do a couple's vacation in the area, then this is a fantastic and unique destination.
The breakfast alone is worth a visit! Perfect location to access downtown commons and quick drives to the top nature areas and Cornell campus. This was our first visit to Ithaca and we will definitely return!
We had a great stay at the Inn on Columbia. The breakfast was wonderful, including fresh fruits and scones, and our host had an excellent selection of books to browse through. She was also very helpful with recommendations for restaurants and activities. The room was quiet and comfortable and the bathroom was clean and spacious. Thank you!
Did not really intend to reserve at B&B but glad I did. The Inn is very clean and tastefully decorated with countless thoughtful touches. I had complete privacy. Easy check in and in/out. Breakfast a sumptuous feast with all the variety one could desire. Madeline is a gracious host, warm and friendly in perfect balance.
I've stayed at many inns and bnbs and this one is well-run and on the top of my list! The room was very clean and cute. Check-in process was super easy and hassle-free. Madeline called me ahead to let me know the room was ready for us as we were in a rush to attend a wedding. The breakfast prepared by her was fantastic and the dining space itself was a beauty. She also got a lot of nice local art at display. We loved the vibe. You have to stay here when visiting Ithaca!
The house is beautifully restored, and guests have access to the living room/dining room area to read or relax. It's a short walk to town, so the location can't be beat. And the breakfast? Yum! Truly everything you could want in a B&B.
