Charming, cozy, and clean. I met the owner and he is very friendly and accommodating. They have everything you need. I work remote and was able set up at dining room table and drink coffee in the morning since no one else was there. Very peaceful!

They have truly thought of everything at the Yellow Barn Estate. Heaven is in the details. Spacious room; soft towels; plenty of shampoo, conditioner, and lotion; kitchen in which everything you might need is available; heartwarming shared spaces. This will be my top choice going forward for stays in the Ithaca area.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
It is very much out of the way from public. One can easily miss the road (Yellow Barn Rd) from Rte 13. Additionally, I find the shower pressure to be a problem. It is just barely a stream coming out of the shower head. So the bottom line for me, from a bath/shower perspective, it is inadequately equipped-furnished.

1. This property did not have shaving kits. 2. There is little to nil information on the stay? 3. I came into Ithaca early (11am), and the person at the property would not let me do early check in. 4. Each room does not have a TV. 5. Each bathroom only has enough body wash for 1 night, and does not get refilled on the 2nd night.

Peaceful stau

Beautiful place. Peaceful. Comfortable room. Just never found the fresh pastries and couldn’t get the Keurig to make coffee. But even in spite of that it was a very pleasant stay. Pastries and coffee would have made it perfect.

I had a little difficulty getting check in information and when I got to the property, my door code didn't work. However the manager was quick to fix this problem. He also was very helpful when I had trouble with my car. The property is charming, quiet and very clean. The self serve kitchen is wonderful

We had one night at the property. Once we understood the self checking in routine it was easy to access our room. The bed was somewhat soft but maybe because we are used to a firm mattress. Coffee making in the AM was a problem as the coffee maker was not working properly and there was no one to assist.
