Rustic 50s style motel. Clean, quiet, a short walk from a nice downtown , right across the street from the lake.

This is a very old property. Rustic is a good word. This is a long way from 5 stars, but it did the job. It was way overpriced. It looks quaint and charming online, but reality hits you the moment you open the door. You could probably find something much better for the price we paid. The best asset was the mattress. We slept like babies on it, which was a huge win by itself.

Great place to stay for decent price in Saranac Lake. Walking distance to downtown, partial lake view, nice restaurant around. Perfect location to go hiking in the area:) There is also a mini-fridge and coffee maker, which was appreciated.

The Ashley provided a clean and comfortable room that served us well for our needs. The working air conditioner was a godsend in this heat, as we were traveling by motorcycle. The staff we met were sweet and accommodating. Location was perfect for our day trips to Tupper and Placid. We would definitely stay there again!
