The weekender concept is not for me. Snow removal on steps to my room on second floor not done for 3 days. Why a toilet plunger in front of my door. Could not connect on WIFI, person I called was arrogant, I gave up after 2 days. I will be back in the area soon. I lived in the area for over 30 years. Spent over 30 years in the ski/outdoor recreation industry. Anyone that asked about where I was staying was told how I felt. This included ORDA, DEC, The Hilton, I could go on. For another 20- 30 dollars per night it would be worth it.

This is an old motel with a fresh coat of paint. Nothing amazing but comfortable enough for a night or two. Light sleepers beware. The walls are THIN. You can clearly hear a conversation or the tv in the next room over.

I was hoping that the low price wasn’t a reflection of the property but in this case it was. The flooring was a beige carpet and there were stains throughout the room. There were also beverage stains on the doors and the walls. The chair in the room had visible discoloration. The bathroom floors were not clean. The staff did accommodate us with an early check-in as requested which was appreciated but upon arrival the room was only 60 degrees. I really wanted to like this place but I couldn’t wait to go home and shower. I would not stay here again or recommend it to anyone else. I will note that I am a clean freak so these things really throw me off, if you are not then it may be fine for you.

The whole check in-check out proccess was smooth and very convenient. Hotel room and bathroom were amazingly renovated and beautiful as well as clean. Had a great stay. Only inconvence was the lack of parking at the hotel. I understood that it was small and a tourist town, just felt inconvenienced when i had to park at a different hotel and walk to my hotel. Just feel in future the information ahead of time would have been appreciated so i would have known to uber or lyft. But all in all it was an amazing stay and a great hotel.
