Hotel berhampiran Barton Hall, Ithaca

Located in downtown of the nice little town, the hotel is close to everything. It does not have its own parking. Others are fine.

입실시 대기시간 없이 리셉션에서 친절하게 대응했고 방에 들어가니 티비 화면에 welcome message 가 뜨네요. 별거 아니지만 기분좋아 인증샷 남겼습니다 ㅎㅎ 샤워실과 세면대 사이 문을 닫아 분리할 수 있고 방문까지 닫으면 더 아늑한 공간이 되는 구조가 인상적이었습니다. 청결상태는 아주 좋았고 처음 배정받은 방에 히팅이 약해서 말했더니 바로 방 바꿔주었구요. 네스프레소 머신에 매일 커피캡슐 4개를 제공해서 아침 저녁으로 잘 마셨네요- 생수병을 별도로 제공하지는 않고 방에 비치해 놓은 유리병이 있어 각층에 있는 정수기에서 떠 마시는 구조입니다. 환경을 생각하니 별로 귀찮지 않았습니다. 밤늦게 도착해서 먹은 호텔내 레스토랑 음식 먹을만했고 이곳 직원들도 친절했습니다. 이름도 특이했던 steak potato 맛있어서 두번이나 먹었네요 ㅎㅎ 이타카 시내가 워낙에 좁다보니 호텔에서 모든곳이 거의 다 가까워요. 다만 Cornell University 방문객이시라면 지도상 아주 가까워보였는데 등산하실 준비 하셔야 합니다~ 저희는 운동겸 걸어도 가보고 우버 이용하기도 했습니다. 유일한 불만이라면 바꿔준 방이 커넥팅 룸 이었는데 옆방의 소음이 좀 있어요. 다시 이 도시를 방문 할 일이 생길지 모르겠으나 만약 가게된다면 다시 예약할 생각이 들게 한 호텔이었습니다😊

Musim puncak Hotel Ithaca mungkin hanya urusan sekolah, kali ini saya memilih untuk tinggal di hotel ini kerana saya membawa anak-anak saya ke sekolah! Ia boleh dilihat bahawa tidak ada perniagaan kerana wabak itu, dan bilik itu mempunyai bau hapak yang kuat, dan meja, lampu, dan banyak sudut agak tebal dengan habuk, dan cadar juga mempunyai bau hapak! Tidak mungkin, tidak banyak hotel di Ithaca! Dan harganya sangat mahal, saya rasa seperti dicincang!

The Ithaca Marriott Downtown on the Commons is the kind of hotel, like the bland pictures on its walls, that no one would notice, or even recall, if it disappeared tomorrow. As a guest one senses that the staff works there because they couldn't find a better job anywhere else--don't expect to see the same faces if you return a few months, or a year, later. My family and I stayed overnight on a Monday in March. The valet attendant wasn't happy we didn't use his services. Instead we were given instructions on how to reach ”our parking garage” (as we were told by the hotel staff) a couple blocks away. It turns out this is anything but the Marriott's parking garage. Did I lack an ”elemental common sense” (as the staff person later suggested to me on the phone) for parking in one of the many empty spots with a small sign that apparently says something like, ”Parking reserved for Hotel Guests of Hilton Garden”? It was nighttime, after a long day of driving -- fatigue reigns in a parking garage with reserved spots for a particular hotel. Signs are misread as ”Parking reserved for Hotel Guests.” Or maybe I parked in that space because I was told by Marriott staff that it was ”our garage”? And wouldn't common sense today suggest Marriott and Hilton are owned by the same corporation that owns everything else? No, this was entirely this guest's fault: no ”elemental common sense.” And the price of this ticket: on top of the $12 a night parking fee, a $30 fine that the Marriott didn't think it worth offering to compensate. O, the inhumanity! The dry, stuffy air in the Marriott hotel room; the broken ice machine on our floor with a sign of apology (yes, they posted a sign instead of fixing it); their version of the Big Dig right next to the hotel so that guests can wake up to the relaxing sounds of a jackhammer. Fortunately, the room came with four complementary foam earplugs and a $10 voucher for the restaurant downstairs where you can buy a cup of lukewarm coffee, stroll outside and around the corner to one of the many vape shops, or take your kids on a field trip to the very adult gallery a two-minute walk away (next to the theater). To end on a positive note having nothing to do with the Marriott: Maru Ramen and The Milkstand are excellent restaurants and more than make up for any hotel hardly worth its overnight costs. Two stars as our children enjoyed meditating during the slow elevator ride to the tenth floor.

Awesome functionalities, clean environment, and impressive decoration

地理位置不錯，距離湖邊和康奈爾大學都不遠，附近非裔好像不多感覺還比較安全，吃飯也方便，作為連鎖快捷酒店，整潔度還說得過去，該有的設施如冰箱微波爐也都有，員工服務不能說多好但也還可以，因為預付費到店信用卡、押金都沒要直接入住，不小心丟了房卡（後來又找到了）二話沒說直接又給辦了一張，停車也很方便。最大的槽點是早餐，基本上算是沒有，麥片/牛奶/咖啡/三種口味muffin/酸奶/蘋果，好像還有方便麵？真的是吃過的最簡配早餐，想想既然選擇的是經濟型酒店也就無所謂了

如圖，是有點年代了，衛生還可以吧，至少床鋪不感覺到異樣。好像是老爺爺老奶奶運營的店，還是蠻親切的。。
