The hotel itself was fine - the room was very comfortable, and really enjoyed the breakfast on Sunday Morning - went way beyond any expectations. Staff was incredible and very friendly to our dog who travelled with us (special mention of Nancy - the breakfast server- she was outstanding and so kind to us.

Wasn't a didn't like - but the physical layout of the hotel meant a long walk through wrap-around corridors to get to our room inside the hotel (it was just the way the hotel was built, around a courtyard with a pool) so it was easier to walk outside to get to lobby - it wasn't terrible, just could have been easier. And it would have been great if the restaurant on site was up and running (for lunchs and especially dinner). It seemed like a great faciltiy - we saw it during the Sunday breakfast. It just seems a shame that it isn't open regularly.

The room seemed very clean and well made up while we were out the next day. The breakfast was convenient and had a good assortment of items. Pancakes were better than the french toast the next day! Location was convenient for access to the different sights, the university, the Farmers’ Market, Watkins Glen and various waterfalls.

The hotel needs a second elevator in a different location. It looks like they are doing some renovation and updating which it could use in the public areas. The rooms however seem more updated than the rest of the place.

I chose Cayuga Blu b/c it was the lowest priced hotel within 20mins of Ithaca College. I was nervous as I hadnt heard of it before but Im so glad I chose it. Usually I stay at Marriott brands but have not been happy last few times with the cleanliness and they now have hard beds. At Cayuga Blu the room was clean, the staff was friendly and the bed was very comfortable. Yes the bathroom could def. use an update, mostly the shower and toilet. I really dont mind the shower but needs touch up around bottom half of tiles. Only mentioning b/c some ppl will give a hotel terrible review for things like that, it doesnt affect your stay. The shower head also needs to be switched out but it was nice and powerful. Remember I booked this hotel b/c it was cheaper (not cheap just cheaper) so it def. exceeded my expectations and if ever in the area I would def. stay again and recommend to others.

The staff team were really nice and supportive. The location is super good close to almost everything needed, supermarket, gas station, fast food, bus stop, low-cost shops ...etc. and 10 min drive to Ithaca university. big parking and multiple accesses. Food was ok and standard They offered me a good price to extend my stay despite it was a busy back to school season

The hotel itself is old not modern, but it was ok.

It was very easy to find off of the highway and easy to get around to The Commons area and Ithaca College. It was clean and comfortable and offered a decent free breakfast.

I was taking my daughter to tour colleges - drove up from PA on Saturday morning to see Syracuse, drove to Ithaca that afternoon and checked in at the Cayuga Blu. We went to The Commons area to walk around and have dinner that night, and toured Ithaca the following morning. For our purposes, we liked everything about our stay at Cayuga Blu.

The rooms were very clean. Thr staff was amazingly friendly and the breakfast was delicious. If we are traveling to Ithaca, NY location again, we will definitely be using this hotel again.

I was kind of nervous rhat the building was not secure and anyone could walk in because the doors were not hooked up ro badge only people entering. Also our door had to be pulled shut in order for it ro be completely closed because the door would get stuck on the door casing.

The pool. The indoor pool is heated and the best temperature for me. And there are balls to play with. Me and my family enjoyed the indoor pool. The staff are friendly and helpful. Shout out to the receptionist (lady) on July 11 around 6pm (sorry I forgot to ask your name), thank you so much for being so nice and helpful. The breakfast is plentiful and delicious. I wish we can come back to Ithaca and we will definitely choose this hotel again❤❤❤

Nothing. We love it!

Every one we came across that worked there spoke to us and were friendly and helpful. Especially those at the front desk. We also appreciated how clean they kept the property. We thought the breakfast was very good. It was a nice selection of both hot and cold items which they resupplied constantly. The food was fresh and hot! They also were always checking that there were no spills and food mess along the buffet. The tables were bussed and sanitized quickly to insure that there was plenty of seating.

The building is quite old and the rooms could use a bit of an update. The side doors to enter the building were not locked, for security I wish they had been card swipe entery only.

The hotel was clean and had friendly, helpful staff. The room was comfortable and attractive. I had good control of the room temperature. The room had a desk and a comfortable armchair and a desk chair. The indoor pool was clean and was warm enough.

I visited on a cold January day, and all the public spaces were underheated and chilly--including the indoor pool area. I was disappointed at breakfast. I came during the final hour of breakfast and found only a cold spread with bagels, cold cereal, etc. No eggs or hot dishes. During the half-hour I was in the dining room, no staffers were on hand at all.

The breakfast was very good with both hot and cold options. We had scrambled egg, bacon, sausage, pancakes with syrup as well as some coffee cake. There were bagels available to toast, juices, strawberry yogurts and coffee and teas set up self- serve. Staff was checking on the guests without being intrusive.

The hot water was low in evening and in the morning for showering. There was a sports team in most of the facility, so could have overtaxed the hot water system.
