Not a normal Super 8!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 8/2/06
This was by far the best experience I've had in Ithaca. The staff was friendly and helpful. To be honest I've stayed in other Super 8s (why are they located in seedy sections?) and this was by far and away the nicest one I have ever seen. There was a huge 24 hour grocery right across the parking lot. And it's right in the city without being, in the city. The first night I got to town I checked into the Hampton Inn, at $140 a night! The rooms were ok, the staff was quite standoffish, but the noise was unbearable!!It is RIGHT on a major highway. All the rooms on one entire side of the hotel face the street. And there is nothing between the hotel and the street but a little strip of grass. I lucked out getting a room at another hotel at all, much less one still in the city (even closer!) And the rate was $89!!!! You can't go wrong in Ithaca for that price, that includes breakfast and a computer with internet access that is just for guests!!!
I plan to stay there whenever I come thru. Ithaca is just beautiful anyway. The hard part is staying on budget! I recommend it to everyone looking for value and especially if you are travelinging with a family.
