The apartment was very clean and cozy. I especially enjoyed the loveseat recliners and the washer and dryer. Kathi and Steve were very kind and even provided me with a USB plug for my cell phone charger as I forgot mine. Also the location is great....15-20 min to either Ithaca or Cortland. I would definitely Kathi and Steve's apartment.

The most accessible bnb we've ever stayed in; just a short level path from the designated parking spot thru the garage into the ground floor apartment. Nice decor, very comfortable bed & sofas, plenty of plush towels, fancy whirlpool bath (not accessible of course) with a wonderful showerhead. Very quiet location on a cul-de-sac on the west edge of town -- barely 15 minutes from the East Campus of Cornell Univ. A good place to spend a few days enjoying the outdoors, but not designed for much indoor time. It would be fine for minimal cooking (the stove does not have a hood) -- we only ate our breakfasts there. But the apartment met our needs completely, and we would certainly be happy to stay there again if we were visiting the area.

Convenient and comfortable

We really enjoyed our stay here. Kathi was very nice and friendly and the apartment was clean—perfect for the two of us on a four day stay in the area. Just a fifteen minute drive to Ithaca and convenient to many of the state parks and waterfalls and Finger Lakes wine trails. We’d enjoy staying here again next time we come to Ithaca.

Close to Ithica and Cornell this clean, complete basement apartment has everything we needed: fully furnished kitchen, comfortable seating area, Queen bed, and soaking tub. While there is no window, the air conditioner/fan keeps the air moving and fresh. We enjoyed relaxing here after sightseeg and slept soundly in this quiet cacoon.

Great stay for single person

A pretty good place for the price. There was no toilet paper or tissues though restocked, but after a day they brought new stuff down. They were very accommodating for my earlier check in and later check out. Overall a great stay I will consider in the future if I need a longer stay in the area again!

Convenient and cozy stay

Overall nice spot. It’s small but convenient. Perfect spot for 1-2 people to stay. I was there for a baseball tournament with my Son. It was better then staying in a hotel and was probably cheaper. Overall clean. Very accessible. Convenient location. I would definitely stay there again. Perfect for couples.

Exactly what we were looking for

We were in town to attend an intensive 5-day course at Tompkins Cortland Community College. This apartment was exactly what we needed: nearby, quiet, comfortable, clean, and well appointed (full kitchen with dishes, pots/pans, etc). Instructions for parking and checking in were clear and communicating with Steve was easy.

Visiting kid in college

My husband and I were visiting our son for Family weekend at college. All hotels were booked from months in advance. I found this gem of a little place and we will be using it every time we visit our son from now on. Apt is clean and perfect size for the 2 of us. Home owners who we met separately were wonderful. Location was perfect. 5 star for sure.
