Two day stay with family. Breakfast was great and breakfast attendants were wonderful. Room was fine, shower seemed newly remodeled so that was nice but the exhaust fan made a huge broken noise. We found an underwear and an empty beer can in our room and had to call front desk as soon as we checked in! Overall a decent hotel for a short stay.

Ithica was two worlds - both fantastic

Ithica was wine tours with cheese and chocolates one day and scenic hikes with waterfalls and cascades the next. Both activities were nearby and equally memorable. However, the first day went to our heads and the second to our tired feet. The hotel was a pleasant place to return to refresh, rest and plan our next adventure. Breakfast was more than expected with eggs, sausages, waffles, toast and more. Great value and location.
