Staff was responsive to a minor issue and resolved it. They plan to purchase microwave ovens and that will be a nice addition. They need to ordered some coffee filters and coffee grounds. Place is simple but clean. Bed was comfortable. The room needs to be aired out ideally before guests arrive if it has not been occupied recently. A fair amount of off gassing from recent improvements. The air source heat pumps are mounted on the back side of the building and vibrate, they should have been ground mounted.

Came up to winter hike some of the high peaks and this was a perfect spot. Very clean, seamless check-in/out, straight to the point motel. One of the better options out of the lot to choose from in Lake Placid. Will be staying here again.

Room was very clean. Would be nice to have a chair in the room, and a lamp or some way to dim the overhead lights. A hook in the bathroom for hanging clothes would be nice too. A shade for the back window would be good too for more privacy.

A very nice remodel of a motor court motel with all new interior, heating, and plumbing. Comfortable with large TV and nice beds. Very clean. Future additions might include a microwave oven, coffee cups for the coffee maker, and some wall decor. Overall, a very nice room for basecamp to local adventures..

Renovation much improved the rooms! One thing missing is bedside lamps.

The rooms are brand new and very clean. The check in process couldn’t be easier! No need to go to front desk, just a text with your key code. The only thing we needed was a table, or desk, or dresser….there were no surfaces set things on, just the floor. Nevertheless, we’d stay here again.

Room was clean. Staff was quick to respond when we asked about power outage due to a terrible storm.

La chambre est propre et rénovée mais il n'y a aucun service (mini frigo, micro ondes, bain, débarbouillette, etc) Le plancher est très froid. (Nous sommes allées 1 nuit après une longue rando en janvier 2026). Nous avions besoin de faire bouillir de l'eau mais le personnel du restaurant ne voulait pas nous aider avec 17h.

Great location! Recent renovation. Very clean and surprisingly quiet. However very spartan. By simply adding a chair and a bureau to put some clothes in make a world of difference. Also a mini fridge would be a very positive addition.

Diane • Couple Trip

It was my fault that I didn’t realize that this was a motel, not a hotel and that the restaurant was closed. No coffee in the morning! We had problems with the lock but that was addressed immediately. Although the room looked recently updated and very clean, the room really needed different furniture. The mattresses on the beds were super thin. The beds needed blankets. There were NO chairs, no table to put things on and a big empty space under the huge TV for those furniture pieces! We had to walk sideways to get past a bed to get to the bathroom. Maybe a different bed layout? The heat pump was SO loud we had to turn it off in order to fall asleep! It was below zero outside so it was really cold inside too! I slept with my sweatshirt on with the hood up all night and my winter coat over the comforter. I know this was a budget motel, but with a few changes it could be a decent place to stay.

I had to pound on door to find someone to let me in If there was not a person there I would have had to sleep in my car in the freezing cold. The man said a code was sent to me for self check in. But nothing was sent. Poor customer service. Hotels.com and the property need to get their act together.
