Room smelled dingy and musty. Batroom was dirty. And to top it off my fiance has a service dog who the ignorant owner tried to make us pay for. And when told he was a service dog the idiot wanted my fiance to show proof of her condition. Told him to maybe read the americans with disabilities act. Wouldnt recommend it to my worst enemy. Overall 1 star is a bit high but cant give negative stars. Dirty gross property with rude ignorant management

This was reasonably convenient. Inside room was clean, but furniture was well used. Only one chair which should have been replaced. Outside was dusty and cobweb covered. Best thing was price.

The hotel was in deplorable condition. The light didn’t work in the room. Room was filthy and smelled old. Ice machine broken. No one at front desk. No view of River. Ad was misleading.

For starters, the word HELP was scratched into our room door. Sketchy place. Several bugs. No secure way to lock the door. Everything around this place - inside and out - is a MASSIVE safety hazard. Definitely more of a local motel for locals with unfortunate addictions to stay/live in. I wasn't expecting much at all and knew it wasn't going to be a great place, but i just needed a place to lay my head for a few hours at night and a quick shower in the mornings. I was at least expecting a door that would lock and not have HELP scratched into it! And maybe even a room that was a tad bit cleaner.

The place is not clean. We ended up staying only one night even though we paid for 2. It was stinky and looked like it wasn't cleaned for years. The surfaces were layered in grime and the smell was like cigarettes and cheap perfume. You get what you pay for.

Only if $$$ is your ONLY criteria!

The filthiest place I have ever stayed. The room itself was not so bad. although it was pretty run down, but everything about outside the room was pretty disgusting. Peeling paint everywhere. the stairs to the second floor have not been swept in weeks. The lobby had a musty smell. probably due to the mini ice machine there. No place to hand clothes in the room and nowhere to sit at a desk or counter to work on a computer. It WAS the cheapest hotel within half an hour of the Saratoga Jazz festival but I think most would rather pay the going rate of twice what this place charged to stay in an at least acceptable place.

Place was great distance for the kayaking event but definitely unacceptable on finding a crack pipe behind the bed area. We went to charge our phone on the few putlets that worked and when I moved the bed there was a Crack pipe. How did this motel even change the sheets if this pipe was freely visible if the beds are getting changed frequently. Run down motel, yes it was a last min room but bathrooms are dirty, bathtub was stained, door was falling apart from molding door. Will never stay here again if I was around the area.

Great location, everything else is pretty sketchy. Don't expect painted doors or good caulking. Clean sheets and towels, no bugs are the highlight, bring slippers for the dirty floor. No closet or hangers either.
