Old motel that needs many updates but provides a good alternative for families that require space, beds and a full kitchen. Easy access from 9N.

Room was clean but AC didn’t work. It made it difficult to sleep.

I Liked the wilder surroundings. I did not like the lac of useful things in the kitchen (no extra plastic bags for the garbage, no paper towels, very few utensils).

This is a very hard review to write because our rooms (2) were VERY nice having been newly renovated. But the overall property is just beginning to be renovated and many of the rooms are not yet ready for visitors. We saw and visited one couple who were given a very old and unclean room initially but were given a full refund and cancellation upon request. The proprietors are very accommodating but communicate only through an intercom or by texting. We did not meet any staff. But all that said, the finished renovated rooms (like ours)were great.

I loved the old cottage feel and I was mesmerized by the bedroom balconies to the creek. I will definitely be coming back and will be staying longer!!

Correct for the price.

It was a pleasant experience, situated to the place i want to visit like the High Gorge Falls and ausable chasm. It has clean bed sheets and towels, bathroom clean and functioning, essentials are provided, 2 bedroom and bath for a decent price plus kitchen. The only thing is that only one room has electric fan. I would be nice if both rooms could have it, i end up using the window electric fan. Another thing i love are the 2 restaurant nearby called Adirondack mountain cafe and ice jim inn.

I loved Brookside Motor Inn! We had a lot of space--two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a small kitchen--for a super reasonable price. The decor is dated, yet I love that they use what they have instead of sending things to the trash and replacing them with newer versions. In this way, this hotel seems truly to practice sustainability. I also loved opening up the back door and seeing the creek--it is literally just steps away. I will definitely come back when I am in this area again!

Love it here

Uneven floor in middle of room, stubbed my toe and bled and constantly tripped on it, broke the glass I had in my hand. Only room 2B no window in front. Windowed faced the back where there was a trashed couch in the woods. Wifi with no internet connection. No cell phone service (at&t) had no way of contacting my family they were so worried.

Basic but spacious accommodations. Quite dated but clean and perfect for our needs. Kristin's friendly help with a last minute room change was invaluable. Thank you!!

Great place to stay just a short distance from so many activities of the Adirondack High Peaks region.

We were pleasantly surprised by the accommodations. We were expecting one room with three beds but it was a nice surprise to find a 2 bedroom suite. Owner communication was great and the location was perfect.

Decor was a little dated but a great stay in very clean and comfortable suite.

The room was clean; however, everything was very old and rickety. Could hear people up above loudly. We never saw any staff at all. We were only there for one night. as a couple of ice climbers, it worked out fine and convenient to Keene climbing, but I don't think my wife would have liked it. Enjoyed the sound of the river right outside the window and was very reasonably priced. With a little effort i.e., paint, furniture, minor carpentry, could be a really nice spot. Would stay there again.

The rooms are HUGE! Lots of updates in the works. Quaint and accessible with lots of amenities in the suites. The road is quiet and the brook out back was a delightful surprise. We will definitely be back. We did not see any staff, all self directed check in, so if you generally need a lot of support when staying places, this isn’t the one for you. If you like privacy and quiet, definitely book!

I decided to take a last minute two night trip to Lake Placid. I was looking for something affordable that was close enough to do some hikes, check out the main area of Lake Placid. The motel fit the bill for me as a place to sleep. It was clean, and it was what I expected. The furniture is older, it has a rustic smell. But it worked well for me. Location was probably the best part about the place for me. Checking in was convenient too as they text you your door entry code. I would stay again on a solo trip.

Very clean! Real at home feeling! Everything you could possibly need! Definitely would recommend!

Quaint little hotel! Loved how big the space was, and it was close to everything. The stream behind the hotel made for a relaxing sleep, and it was wonderful having an oven for an occasional frozen pizza!

The bed was amazingly comfortable and the room was spacious. The place was extremely clean. It's a beautiful spot in a quaint little village and there's some great dining spots nearby. The only drawback is it's a very outdated motel. I know the owners are slowly redoing a lot of the rooms so it will improve with time. However, it's a great spot for the money and we will be back.

Room was clean enough, but old. The grounds had not been taken care of. There was no staff that I could see.

The brook behind the property is spectacular. Being able to sit on the veranda and listen to the flowing water was relaxing. The rooms were comfortable and homey.

It was nice could update a bit but other that that it was comfortable and quiet would stay again

Great hotel

It's an old building, old and worn furnishings. But very clean, which is most important. I received a text from the motel the morning of the day I was scheduled to arrive, telling me my room number, the code to enter on the door to open it, and that checkout time was 11 am. When I arrived the code worked fine. The office was closed even though it was only 5 pm. There was a sign on the door saying "out of office, please ring bell if you need service". I had what I needed so I didn't ring the bell. The office was closed the next day, although in the evening a light was on. Next morning when I left, the office was still closed with the same note on the door. So I never saw a single employee during my entire stay! The office was in a big dark house right next to the motel, no lights on inside although there were many outside lights strung up in a decorative manner. My room had a glass back door that opened to a path that went the length of the building, the rest was woods. The door had a thin curtain on it and I have this thing about people or creatures looking in at me at night, so I hung one of the large bath towels on the door to provide privacy. I can't complain at all, this was the cheapest motel in the entire area. They gave me what I wanted so if you don't want to speak to anyone and you want to save money, this motel will do you good.

We were very comfortable with our stay! WE had plenty of room and everything was clean and met all our needs and then some.

Nice place to stay and explore the area.

It was an amazing trip and the room was beautiful it wasn’t what I expected at all it was big clean and homey I would absolutely stay there again

Clearly needs updating but was very roomy. Pretty clean but run down. I think next time I go I’m donating a flat screen TV.

Great

Room i was in was updated, kitchen and bath very nice/convenient. Pretty quiet/clean. Only thing was no hooks or dresser/stand to put clothing bag on or hang wet gear/jackets. Widi..was iffy at times, but otherwise was a pleasant stay for our hiking trip.

Great location and communication.
