Marilyn, Ballston Lake

The front desk clerk refused to honor my request for a first floor room due to a recent knee injury. He said I would have to pay $75 more for a king delux room. I had secured a standard double king room through Expedia. He then said I could have a first floor queen room but he could not guarantee it - he would leave it as a “note” on my reservation. I would have to go to the Inn to see about availability. I was not going to drive 3 hrs to learn whether I could have a first floor room or not. I did not check in as I was very concerned about stairs leading to a further injury. Apparently this Inn refuses to acknowledge the Americans With Disabilities Act. Interestingly, the other inns I booked with Expedia gladly found me a first floor room.

Very nice inn. And nice breakfast. However, big differences in room quality, and you don’t get to choose your room unless you go thru Hotels.com and non-inn website. Unfortunately we got one of the rooms in the back of the carriage. Was very disappointing and staff was unable to move us to another room.
