Clean and quiet, but bare bones. Renovated strip motel with minimal aesthetic appeal and amenities. Too expensive for what you get.

The property was very close to downtown Saranac Lake and the ADK Rail Trail. Plus right across the street from Lake Flower and only abotut 8miles to Lake Placid. It wasn't fancy, but was clean, comfortable, one floor and served our purpose perfectly! Check in was a breeze. We will be definitely be back to stay and bike the Rail Trail again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
There was only one outlet in my room, and it was a power strip that powered the microwave and refrigerator. None on either side of either bed. The AC unit did not respond to the remote, and playing with the touch screen failed to do anything, so the temperature and air could not be altered. All 3 kayaks were noticeably dirty, so I have to clean them off once I launched the one I used. Multiple spiders in each, including a few once I began paddling. Everything else was okay, I loved my bed and the chairs behind the building on the pond, but I am not sure that I would come back.

Decent Value, but Don't Expect Much
The place is not a bad value, though by no means is it luxury. It is pretty much no frills, but it is convenient and reasonably clean.

The future of the motels?
Good value for the price. The beds were comfortable and the room was equipped as it should. But there is nobody at the reception. All the check in and check out were made via email. We did not meet anybody. It seems that's the future .. Not sure we go in the good way.
