    Furniture on balcony was very uncomfortable and there was only one chair when technically, the room sleeps 2 or even 2 adults and a child.

    Expansive grounds. Quiet neighbourhood. Decor on main rooms featured tons of nice antiques. Good sized rooms.

    Great price, quiet location, but not too far from Ithaca or many beautiful falls. Staff was wonderful and provided an amazing breakfast that was included in the price. Rooms were comfortable, spacious, and very private. Wish we planned to stay for more than one night.

    Ben Conger Inn, Smith Corona Room
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • King Room with Balcony
    • Stayed 1 night
    • Submitted from a mobile device

    The only small issues were that the doors to the rooms were hard to open, close and lock so they were very loud when anyone had to go in or out (like slamming door loud) and although breakfast was amazing, it was served earlier (between 7:30 & 8:30) than any other B&B I've stayed at. It was explained that the Inn is also an event space and there was an event the day we were there. We were told breakfast is usually from 8-10am, but they serve early when there's an event in the afternoon. Regardless, I would still recommend staying there.

    The main house is beautiful with tons of historical decor and art that had a museum feel but in a warm homey setting. Our stay was in the Dempsey house (also beautiful) in the Smith Corona room on the top floor. There is a fire pit with seating between the two houses that the hosts light in the evenings for guests to sit around and enjoy. Our room was very clean and comfortable. It had a huge private balcony facing the back and side of the house that wrapped around the corner of the house and overlooked the beautiful grounds. It was accessable through a set of glass doors in the bedroom and had comfortable seating. The room had a gas fireplace, a king bed, TV, wardrobe, side tables and a comfortable chair. There was also a fully stocked coffee station with a Keurig and bottles of water. The attached bathroom had a Jacuzzi tub/shower combination. The room was quiet and peaceful. We didn't hear any noise from the other guests in the rooms next to us or below, aside from the room doors opening and closing. The hosts were so nice and helpful. Breakfast was amazing! Our breakfast was buffet style with many delicious home made options ranging from eggs benedict, breakfast burritos, a bacon and waffle bake, cinnamon roll French toast, two kinds of muffins, fresh fruit, pumpkin swirl pound cake, juices, coffee, tea, and more. It was served in a beautiful glass enclosed dining room with a view of the grounds. Overall, we had a wonderful stay.

    It’s not a bad thing.. it’s just far off from Ithaca college, where my daughter is.. but I would still definitely come back and stay here.

    The property is very well maintained. The staff is exceptional and very courteous. The breakfast was pretty good, fresh and made to order.

    Nothing.

    The Innkeeper, Shelly (hopefully I have her name correct) was extraordinarily accommodating from beginning to end...and just a nice person. I had to leave early in the morning to participate in a triathlon in Auburn, so I didn't have an opportunity to eat breakfast at the Inn (which was included). Maybe next time around.

    Size of the bed (queen). We're just used to a king size. We knew it was going to be a queen size when we booked, so we cannot really complain.

    Very good. We enjoyed it. Better than most of the hotel chains. The staff is very welcoming. The house has an history and is very well decorated. We will recommend it to our friends.
