The hotel was convenient, clean and quiet. Although some of the rooms were being renovated, this didn't negatively impact our experience. The staff and owners were very helpful and friendly. They apologized several times for the renovations and were very welcoming. We would stay at this property again.

My wife and I stayed here because we travel for work. Check in was super quick and easy, staff was nice, our room was clean, comfortable and it was a quiet place. We were satisfied with our stay and will return when in town. It was budget friendly and served the purpose for our 3 night stay. They are actively renovating but it wasn’t loud or noisy.

New owners trying and restoring an Ithaca area "landmark" and doing well. If you're looking for lodging with all the bells and whistles... keep scrolling. If you're looking for affordable, safe, quiet, clean lodging close to Cornell and the Ithaca area the Embassy is the one. I have to return to the area soon and will be staying there if there are vacancies.

It’s a nice motel with car parking next to your room door. I had one small room with one bed and the shower there was very tiny in the shape of triangle. Even for a slim person not comfortable to use. Everything small in the room and bathroom. Door lock is the regulator key, I think it’s not very safe.
