the Springwater is about the best value I’ve ever had in a hotel. It was SO clean, the bed was perfect, the staff were friendly and helpful and I felt safe. With a child going to school locally, I’ll be back…just delightful!

We spent 2 nights there with our dog. The room /bathroom were newly upgraded and spotless. The grounds were very well kept. Lots of variety provided every morning for the free breakfast It’s approximately 15- 20 mins to downtown Ithaca. It was a pleasure staying there and we will definitely return there in the future

Great Place to stay!

The room was brand new. New carpeting - very clean - new bathrooms - refrigerator - microwave. The outside looks worn but the rooms are fresh and new. The new AC fan, however, was very loud. Additionally, the bedspread should be swapped out for a double sheet over a quilt. There were plenty of towels and built in soap - shampoo - conditioner and lotion bottles. Very nice owners.
