INN ON COLUMBIA

Beautiful home, delicious food, accommodating host, and awesome atmosphere. Location prime for visiting downtown. Will definitely visit and stay again!

A grouping of Victorian era homes remodeled with contemporary design and decor. Very comfortable bed. The large common area kitchen in our building was very well stocked. An easy walk to downtown for dining and shopping. We had canceled an AirB&B that was a disaster. The hosts of the Inn on Columbia went out of their way to find us a place on a very busy college weekend. We can’t thank them enough. We stayed three nights and enjoyed Ithaca tremendously thanks to Kenn and Madeline.

Well done B&B. Comfortable and easy to do. Glad I stayed

A lot of street noise, and not enough insulation between you and the other guests. Didn't feel private. Convenient location. Could walk to several attractions. Plentiful and diverse breakfast items provided. Owners friendly and accommodating.

We had a lovely stay. We were very late to check in and the owners called us and emailed late check in instructions, which was very helpful. They were very responsive to any questions and issues we had and were just generally very nice people. A great place to stay!

Inn on Columbia was a real find. Worked perfectly for our overnight on a long drive as the hosts were lovely and checked us into the room super quickly, gave us helpful maps and suggestions for dinner, and then left us to explore Ithaca in the limited time we had. Inn is located in more residential area, within easy distance to downtown or Cornell's campus (quick drive, or a walk to downtown for anyone who doesn't mind an uphill walk home) and had a lovely shared kitchen and common space where a yummy breakfast was left for us in the morning, along with snacks and coffee/tea and beverages for whenever we wanted them. The design of rooms, including a lot of environmentally responsible practices, is really attractive and there was an excellent art collection to top it all off. Highly recommended.

This was a pleasant surprise! A quaint Victorian home made into a bed and breakfast steps away from downtown Ithaca. The room was quiet and clean.. the mattress needs to be replaced as we both sank into the middle. And the tv was VERY small.. but for the most part we were happy with our stay. Private bathrooms. Breakfast in the morning.

I arrived late about 9:30 pm thinking the front desk would still be open; unfortunately, it was close, but they left me instructions on how to get in my room and once in, I thought it was nice, clean, and unique in it's own way. The next morning, they greeted me, and informed me that a box of goodies was waiting on me in the kitchen/lounge area. Overall, great place to stay, and I will stay again.

Altogether a positive experience

Inn on Columbia is a number of former private homes converted bedroom suites with a common kitchen and living area. The one we stayed in had 3 suites. The common kitchen had 2 coffee makers, a teapot and an extensive tea selection. A generous selection of fruit was available for all. Navigation the common areas was made easier by motion sensitive lights coming on as you entered each area. Each suite received a box of refrigerated breakfast rolls and there were granola and yogurt options to select from. Our room was comfortable and the jacuzzi tub relaxed tired muscles after a day of exploring Ithaca. The only detraction was low tv volume from a small screen HDTV located on the opposite wall from the foot of the bed. We are planning future Ithaca visits and will use the Inn at Columbia as our base.
