Our stay was simple and clean. We enjoyed using the pool and hot tub one night. But, we found the service for a fee/buffet-style breakfast mash-up confusing and not ideal. We got there in the morning and a lovely young woman was running around overwhelmed to get folks a coffee and a plate to go help themselves at the buffet all for a fee of around $15. I understand the cost of keeping an inclusive breakfast buffet is a challenge for a hotel, but perhaps it is worth the comfort of guests and staff. It would certainly be a better look.

Convenient location, clean, helpful staff. Two issues: 1) parking was a couple blocks away from the property, 2) the bed linens were old and needed to be replaced. The top hem of the flat sheet was worn to the point that it split at the fold. I expect better from Hilton.

Our room was clean and comfortable and the staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel is centrally located in downtown Ithaca. Unfortunately, the parking garage next to the hotel is under construction so we had to unload and then park a few blocks away. This was time consuming, though the hotel did its best to alleviate the problem. Overall it was s very good stay.
