Franconia Notch Motel

People should not stay here! We stayed in a cottage. It looked nice initially, even with the dated furniture but then we realized the couch was really junk, and it sagged terribly. We saw a space heater was heating the cottage. That's awful because it didn't keep the place warm. We tried turning it up but it wouldn't go higher. We froze all night and in the morning. Then when I used a hair dryer, the circuit tripped and we had no power, so no heat. Nobody was available to fix anything. Stay at your own risk!

Simple, comfortable and friendly staff. Older classic motel in a geat location with a river flowing right behind.

Was hesitant at first because of other reviews but decided to take a chance based on location and price. We were pleasantly surprised to find the room was clean and the bed was comfy. The room was definitely dated but had everything we needed and worked perfectly for the one night we were there. As a bonus, it was only a 2 minute drive to Flume Gorge. I would definitely stay there again.

Location

Calme ++car mon unité donnait sur un petit boisé Très propre

À mon arrivée, la forte senteur de nettoyant genre « pine sol » qui flottait dans l’unité. J’ai ouvert la fenêtre et gardé la porte moustiquaire ouverte jusqu’à ce que la senteur disparaisse. Après c’était bien!

When we entered the room, it had an almost suffocating odor similar to the odor of other low-cost motels. This odor, however, would not go away, even with three windows open. The day after we left, I put on a short that I had worn in that room. It still stank of that room. The bed was comfortable, the water was hot and plentiful, but I will never go there again.
