Guest Reviews
- Sheryl (8/5): -
- Cindy (8/5): Ok for one nite - Yes No microwave in room.,they had one down by the ice machine!
- Rebecca (4/5): The location was good. That is all. Was glad to leave. - The staff was friendly. Good shower head. Old, poor lighting. Bathroom vanity was probably 16 inches wide. No hand towels, no tissues. The mirror was from the 1800's, with the reflective back showing through. Uncomfortable bed, terrible flat pillows, In room coffee was terrible taste, we used our own bottled water to make it. It was just a very old, outdated room with mixmatched items.
- Rocio (10/5): - I did love the location really close to downtown. Also, it was really nice that the trolley came to the property and thanks for everybody. Who actually write a comment because that helps me to get the trolley. Really nice thing also about the trolley you can come with your bike too. I was expecting a microwave inside of the room, but at least they have it outside also the bathtop wasn’t that clean
- Elissa (8/5): If your travelling through it’s a good place to stay. - Clean room. Friendly attendant. Good money for the value. The shower was great. The door didn’t lock from the outside. Tv wasn’t working.
- Annie (8/5): Clean, comfortable, affordable place to stay. -
- Julia (9/5): -
- Jann Gregg (7/5): -
- Sullivan (4/5): I would not stay here again - It was convenient for the stay needed. The walls were thin so I could hear the horrible guests next door arguing, crying. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was very outdated.
- Alexander (8/5): - Great staff!!
- Roberto (6/5): - I ran out of hot water during my shower time
- Denis (7/5): Ok pour le prix - Proximité de Lake George Svc de navette municipale pour 1,50$ Salle de bain besoin de rénovations
- John (10/5): Great experience to stay here - It’s beautiful
- Matthew (8/5): - It was a good hotel to lay your head for an evening while.passing through.
- Shantell (8/5): - The cleanliness was good. A few minor updates would do wonders, but i will definently stay again.
- elisabeth (6/5): - The person at the desk was very nice. Our room was not. But we only stayed one night so it did the job.
- Bryan (10/5): -
- James (10/5): -
- Scott (6/5): Works - Location Exterior was decent Location of Ice machine Pot smoking. Bed was smaller than advertised Room Needed maintenance and could use upgrades.
- Jones (10/5): -
- Baker (1/5): 100% Horrible - It was the only place available. The owner was very nice asks tried to accommodate. Even offered our money back but there were no other places available so we had no choice but to stay. POOP all over the back of the toilet! Extremely dirty bathroom, all floors looked like they had not been vacuumed in a long time. Hair all over "clean" towels. Smelled very bad, all the screens in the windows were busted so bugs got in. We had to keep them open due to the smell. Dead cockroach in the corner! We didn't even take our clothes off for bed. Stayed fully dressed on top of blankets and kept all bags outside! Horrible stay and we both woke up sneezing and having a hard time breathing. It was fine about 2 hours after we left with the help of Benedryl. This place needs help. Owner is great but really needs to fix things there.

- Alexandra (5/5): Zum Schlafen für 3 Tage war es ok. - Das Personal war recht freundlich. Wie in Motels üblich konnte man direkt vor der Tür parken. Es gab einen Kühlschrank. Das Personal konnte keine Tipps zu Wanderungen etc. geben. Die Sauberkeit war solala, der Farbe unter meinen Socken zu urteilen wurde der Boden eine Ewigkeit nicht nass gewischt. Es war alles seeehr hellhörig…
- Backus (9/5): -
- Tracey (8/5): - Room was not extravagant, however, simple and clean, as expected for this rate. Staff was friendly and responsive to any questions and service requests. Pool was clean and clear. Towels, however showed wear, make up stains, thread bare on the first sets we had. A request for more showed thick, newer towels. For a simple get away, this worked well. Close to downtown was a perk for sure!
- Kristy (9/5): -
- Olsmit (8/5): Pleasant - Friendly staff quiet area Beds were very uncomfortable room had odor
- Cappellano (10/5): Great stay! - Extremely nice staff and owner. Great area and very clean and comfortable. I will definitely come back here! The power kept going out in our room when using microwave. But they fixed it
- Imani (10/5): - quiet place
- Tyrone (10/5): - Everything was fine. Only thing was wrong. It wasn't enough light in the room. Everything else was beautiful
- Walter (9/5): - We liked it so much we stayed a second night. The location is great and the entrance is also a Lake George trolley point. The manager is a great innkeeper who goes the extra distance. On our first night there was footstep noise above us (my wife is extra-noise sensitive, while I'm not) but the manager addressed it and also moved us to a one story room for the next night. This is an older motel, well worn, yet charming, clean, and comfortable, and a great place to stay at this popular resort town destination. Recommend.
- John (9/5): Owner was polite and friendly. -
- Peg (5/5): OK, as far as convenience would probably not stay again was not kept up very nicely - It was conveniently located and had a trolley come pick us up to get to downtown, which was nice It really needs a overhaul. It is in poor condition. Bathroom was dirty and everything was antiquated.
- John (10/5): Clean and easy to access.friendly staff and well organized clean pool.good parking - Clean and easy to access.friendly staff and well organized clean pool.good parking

- Dorys (8/5): - The staff are very friendly
- Smolenski (8/5): -
- Steve (10/5): -
- Willard (10/5): - Everything Nothing
- Laurent (2/5): Fuyez ! - À priori pas de puces de lit Comment cet hit peut il avoir plus de 8 sur Booking si ce n’est en les achetant ? Honnêtement c’est vétuste, sale, humide, mal insonorisé, très inconfortable et il y a odeur de renfermé / urine très désagréable. Vous dormiriez chez votre arrière grand mère
- Noureddine (4/5): - No microwave in room. There is a Microwave in a shared area but is not maintained (disgusting smell, spilled food,etc ). The room has a window ac which was not on when we arrived therefore the room smelled moldy. In addition there is too much dust in windows, behind the furniture. There was only one small soap bar/mini shampoo for 3 people. I asked the manager and was given another mini shampoo. Toilet seat was too small for the toilet. I feel the room condition should have been in better shape for the high price paid $152/night
- Alison (4/5): - Location Could have been cleaner and updated.
- Mark (6/5): - Nice owner and staff, could be updated.
- Melissa (10/5): -
- Minton (7/5): The owner was helpful with the tv which wasn't working when we got there. - The bed was comfortable and it was hot and we enjoyed the pool. Could of been updated
- Melissa (10/5): Very good motel and staff -

- Daniel (7/5): -
- Davis (6/5): - The location was good and the property was quiet. The bed was comfortable. The pool was clean and refreshing. The room smelled and felt musty and damp. I went to take a swim while my husband was napping and a girl from housekeeping walked right into our room.
- Karine (8/5): Cheap and usefull - shuttle service to the town
- Vincent (6/5): - Manager was very nice. Room could really use some updating and repair
- Gareth (8/5): - For the money I thought it was excellent value. Close to where I wanted to be and nice and quiet. Would stay again
- Josefina (8/5): - Nice place close to everything and the manager very kind and friendly.
- Sara (6/5): - Good price, comfortable bed, AC worked, good size refrigerator, trolley stop into town. Needs updating, towels in poor condition.
- Nichols (7/5): -
- John (9/5): good -
- John (10/5): Can’t wait to come back!! Which we will do next summer! - Location was great! Staff was so very friendly! Also very accommodating!! Would definitely recommend this motel to all my friends!!! Everything was great!
- Lorraine (10/5): - Everything was great, would. Recommend this property to my friends and family. Enjoyed my stay.
- Robert (5/5): - It was clean Small. Old. Run down.
- Nicole (8/5): This is a basic motel that has a great location, is safe and clean. Friendly staff. - Convenient location and friendly staff. This is a very basic, budget motel that worked perfectly for our group. We did not expect luxury, just good location, safe and clean.
- Nolivo (7/5): -
- Rocky J. (9/5): Great Value for the Accommodations - The room accommodations were very large and fully furnished. The area was quiet and well maintained. One of the best things is the CDTA Trolley service turns around and goes to the village at the hotel parking lot. This allows you to leave your car and take the trolley into the village. The pool was clean and very well maintained and the chairs, tables and sun chairs were well maintained and comfortable. I would definitely recommend this hotel to persons and families.
- Ana (10/5): - Muy tranquilo Deben de renovar las escaleras
- Odila (4/5): - Property is run down and dated. One night was enough
- Steve (10/5): Very good motel - Clean rooms
- Yerrosk (10/5): -
- Jones (10/5): -
- Elizabeth (6/5): -
- Meredith (10/5): Very happy with our experience - Perfect location. We were very happy with our room. Comfortable and quiet. We enjoyed sitting outside as the weather was nice. Staff was friendly and helpful. I will definitely stay here again on my next trip to Lake George.
- Ronald (6/5): - The. Bed was very un comfortable
- Joseph (7/5): -
- Tiffany (8/5): - It is very quiet.Pool is well maintained and we had it basically to ourselves.Staff is accommodating and friendly.i will stay there again very reasonably priced for what you get an easy simple hassle free stay.If I had to say anything I didn't like it's that the beds arevckesn but not soft kind of hard.Oveish there was a microwave but other than that great price and stay.i will always use this motel.
- Florence (8/5): Super rapport qualité/prix - Le monsieur à l’accueil était super gentil Il y avait une petite odeur de renfermé mais une fois la climatisation allumée, elle est vite disparu
- Matt (8/5): - Comfortable space and accommodating staff. Basic space but great water pressure in the shower.
- Benoit (6/5): Pour une nuit, ça le fait à un prix acceptable. - Pas de punaises de lit, pas d'insectes. La chambre était suffisamment propre. Pour des automobilistes ou des cyclistes, le motel est suffisamment proche d'une multitude de restaurants. L'état de la chambre ne justifie pas le prix que nous avons payé.
- Vincent (8/5): - Good
- mary (7/5): Good stop on a long road trip - Great bed! Best night's sleep in quiet and comfortable room. TV unavailable.
- Scott (10/5): The 4 Nights were a great getaway and just what I needed. - Fran Cove was a fantastic value for the week of Americade. The staff was very Friendly and helpful. I felt very safe even late at night. The area around the room was well lit and security cameras in sight. My Motorcycle was safe and I was able to park right outside my room. Thank you Fran Cove. I will be back. I could only get 1 Chanel on the TV. But it didn't matter much to me I wasn't there to watch TV. I did not ask management for help. I'm sure they would have fixed the problem. Plus they had Great WI-FI. So it was all good.
- Roxanne (8/5): - If you don't mind leaving a motel room where your door isn't actually locked from the outside, then this is the place to stay. Room 37 with the King Size bed did not lock from the outside. We could push the door open without using the key. From the inside, there is a bolt and a cord for the door knob. So while inside, secure, when not physically there, it's not... so I wouldn't leave anything valuable there. We found out that the toilet area must have been put in where a closet must have originally been.. wiping proved difficult for out medium statures. No breakfast is included, which we knew. I don't know how old the coffee was for the coffee maker inside. The soap bars were preopened and maybe wintered in this room as they were wet when pulled out of the package. The fridge worked well. The heat worked and the ac worked. Bed a little stiff, but doable. overall clean and just a basic place to stay. The outlets need replacing as some are cracked and really didn't hold the charging cords well. Would I stay here again. possibly ... hubby says no.
- Claude (10/5): - Gave me what i needed
- Cherylswims (8/5): Worked for a short stay. Close to Lake George Vlillage. - Location was good for what I needed.
- Pierre (7/5): -
- Cynthia (6/5): Suspicious electrical! - Old motel. We needed a place to sleep. My friend was sick and I didn’t have much time to search. The weekend was very busy and rooms were very expensive. We were just passing through. Mattresses were awful. Room seemed clean enough. No plugs except this mess under TV!
- LINDA (8/5): Decent - The motel was very clean but nothing fancy. It was a room for the night. Nothing I would want to stay long term at.
- Amy (5/5): Please do look around before booking.. - No breakfast but the bed was super comfy. Well to start off the bathroom window did not lock as it was broke. The tub needed to be caulked as there was holes around the tub. The shower head was so small nothing came out so we didn't shower as there were only 2 very small towels and 2 washcloths. Paint was falling off the wall. There was carpeting on the floor which was very smelly and nasty with stains like animals had soiled it. There were chairs in the room but the material wascoming off them. There were only 3 outlets in the whole room where the hairdryer cord would not even stay in the outlet. My husband told the owner about the room and he said that they were trying to update the rooms but it was slow so that's why the room was the way it was that somehow the other rooms were updated. Then told my husband that he wanted us to give them a good review. I can't be dishonest and have someone go through what we did. When I did read the reviews our room had a 8 out of 10 which I don't know why unless it was a different room with a king bed. It said that they are family owned business of 50 yrs. Not true these people are new owners of about 2-4 yrs.
- BETH (10/5): - They should have microwave in room not outside where you have to share with others
- Laurie (9/5): Enjoyable - Location, staff , room Bed u even very uncomfortable and uneven, not enough towels
- Morino (8/5): Nice - Very close to everything
- Regina (8/5): Good for a night - Clean n near downtown Air freshener in room was too strong.
- saglik (10/5): -
- patrice (6/5): - You get what you pay for. The motel seems nice enough. But I would definitely not walk barefoot on the carpet, they need a deep clean. When a looked under the bed, to see that there was nothing there that we might forgotten, there were 2 water bottles and a bunch of pretzels, and a lot of dust. It hasmt bee n vacuumed in a vary long while. The rest of the room itself was quite old but. The bed was clean and that's what really matters.The rest was OK, it's needs to get renovated, I think it dates back to the fifties.
- Brenda (10/5): Clean, comfortable, convenient to local attractions and safe. - Our stay was very pleasant for starters. The room was very clean. It is dated, but it serves the purpose for sure. The bathroom was spotless. The water pressure was excellent, and there was plenty of hot water. We were greeted by friendly staff who let us know during our stay that anything that they could do for us that they would but also respected our privacy. We were very comfortable and we will return again. I would also like to mention that the location is perfect because it’s not right in the center of the busy village, but only a short; less than five minute ride up the road from the village. Very quiet at night. We could not have asked for anything else. It was a great stay.
