Potable à faible coût

Les employés ont été très courtois, aimable et serviable. Le menage est fait quotidiennement mais ne pas déplacer les meubles. Lorsque nous sommes arrivé nous ne savions pas qu’il fallait s’enregistrer à l’hotel derrière. Il nous a fallu chercher l’info auprès d’autres voyageurs. Nous avions réservé pour 5. (3 enfants) rendu sur place il nous ont aviser qu’il ne fournissait pas de lit d’appoint pour le motel. Selon ma réservation il était inclus. Nous avons donc improvisé. Le frigidaire congelait les aliments. Il n’y a pas de moustiquaire dans la fenêtre de la salle de bain n’a pas de moustiquaire et aucune « fan » dans celle-ci ppur evacuer l’humidité. Ceci dit : piscine propre et chauffé. À pied du great escape, mini putt, crémerie en face. La salle de bain était propre et on a passé un agréable séjour malgré les quelques problèmes. Je vous conseil le restaurant Olive’s Garden et d’apporter un petit BBQ pour manger, il n’y a pas beaucoup de qualité alimentaire dans le secteur.

What a cute motel! Our room (#23) felt like a little cabin! Very friendly staff, great pool and super comfortable beds! Keep in mind that this is not the Ritz so if that is what you are looking for, don’t stay here and then complain about it!!!! It is like an old fashioned motel and honestly, it was nice to stay at a place that was so down to earth and basic. Perfect location. Will definitely stay here again!

Love the property and location. It was conveniently located right next to six flags. Surprisingly you really didn’t hear the roller coasters or crowd. The only dislike I have is at night the insects bite you tremendously, I recommend that you bring tons of mosquito spray.

Family vacation

The room looked exactly like the picture. Taylor called me the morning we were checking in to tell me the room was ready if we wanted to come earlier. Pool was clean, kids really enjoyed it. They even recommended their favorite places to eat, area attractions. Fridge was bigger than I expected, microwave was very convenient .

Just outside of lake George

Amazing location. 5 minute walk to Six Flags. Across the street from amazing ice cream. Multiple mini golf places are a few minute walk away. Room itself was okay. Very dated, clean tho. Bathroom had a pocket door with no lock, and there were a few cosmetic issues

Clean & well situated

It's a motel right next to an amusement park, however the beds were comfortable and the room was nice and clean. The room also had a mini fridge and a microwave for easy catering. Plus, if you visited on a hot day, the room had an AC unit. The location was convenient. The motel was a short drive to Lake George, and directly across the street from Martha's Dandee Creme, a local institution. Over all it was a nice place to stay, albeit a bit pricey.

Great location in walking distance to Great Escape and across the road from Martha's ice cream shop. It could use some updating but the rooms were very clean and everyone was very helpful. We really enjoyed the pool too. will definitely go back.

Nice hotel but obnoxious neighbors

The hotel was great. I would stay there again. I was very disappointed however with the people staying next door. They were loud until around 2am. I asked them to please keep the noise down and they laughed at me and continued being loud.
