Hilton Garden Inn Ithaca

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very nice and the location was perfect for attending an event at the State Theater, for walking around the city and visiting the waterfalls. The only issue was the construction in front of the building. There wasn’t any place to pull up or park while checking in or out. There was parking provided in a garage nearby which was helpful."
