I have not stayed in a motel for over 50 years but was having a hard time finding a property. The rooms are clean but like staying in a camp ground or old school college dorm. Sparse. No closet. Curtains that need to be replaced. Way too much money for what you get!!! Felt like i was roughing it. And people were up to all hours over the weekend and very loud. You otter look elsewhere for accommodations.

Very clean but our room was tucked behind the office. View was of a very unappealing backyard;no view of Alexandra Bay and what view was available;was an inlet for launching and removing boats. Whirlpool tub and sink where in main room and bathroom door was to big;had to get next to shower or straddle toilet to close. TV was large and we enjoyed the refigerator and they had lights that had USB outlets in,Kuege was nice.

The property is very nice in a great spot. The rooms have been updated. The carpets have been removed I was told by someone. But, this was the first time we’ve ever stayed there. The mattresses were not replaced unfortunately and my wife did not sleep very well. They are a little hard. They are old as well about 20 years old.

Meh

So the room was clean and the check in staff was helpful and gave tips to area eating places. That said, the Tv cable and remote didn't work. The front staff diagnosed that someone had disconnected the cable. He reconnected it and gave us a new remote that worked. Then when we got back from dinner, we noticed that the door did not latch when we left. Nothing was stolen but we had to slam it to engage lock. There was no trashcan in the room so we had to leave the trash on a tray. The area seems to be mostly a summer tourist town. The hotel sat next to a pond that would probably be nice to look at in the summer.
