The room was clean, spacious, not cluttered, and open. The decorations were pleasantly modern. The bed was comfortable.
It took a long time for the room to warm up from 57 degrees. Then when I was ready to sleep, I set the heat to 58, and woke up to it at 69, which was not the temperature I had set it at. The shower was not super high pressure, but was fine. The fridge had a loud noise every time the compressor came on that woke me up.

The location was amazing! Couldn’t have asked for a better location for the price. The place was also freshly painted which was nice. Self check in was easy and convenient.
There was no extra toilet paper in the bathroom, the hot water took a long time to get warm and didn’t get as hot as I would have liked. Had to ask for the breakfast coupons and they were left out in the rain on our door when we weren’t there. Bleach was left on the toilet and ruined some clothing. We did get a credit off our stay but I wish the staff had cleaned the bleach off.
I think there are new owners as of this month (July). They have some learning to do.

Location was close to downtown Saratoga Springs
Low lighting in rooms, no blankets on beds just a sheet, bathroom smelled like cat pee by the furnace. The bathroom window had no privacy shade. We also ran out of toilet paper on a one night stay.

The room was clean and updated.
The shower was very small & there was no curtain on the bathroom window.

used this as a quick overnight stop, worked fine. liked having sink and fridge to handle drinks and leftovers while traveling through. simple motor court style but clean and quiet
the previous owner was not on the premises to give keys or great guests with questions. had to call them to find out what supposed to do or where to go. left pajama top in room and owner never called or emailed me back about it. property has since sold so hope there’s better support for guests

Great location, easy to find.
So easy to check in as we got a text with the door code!
Spoke with the new owners who are going to do a total overhaul. What a great guy!
Nothing. About to be renovated so could not find fault in things that were missing.

The location
We were unable to sleep in the room. There were ants on the floor, and even some on the sheets. The room air conditioner reeked of mildew. The filter was black. Needless to say, we didn’t stay in the room. We slept in our car. We tried to contact the office repeatedly by calling the emergency number on the hotel office door, and ringing the bell. No answer. We wanted to simply discuss the issue and ask for a partial refund for not staying in the room. We couldn’t even checkout at 10 am. No one was there. I locked the key in the hotel room. I know she can get in when the door is locked because she had to bring us towels after we left because they weren’t ready.
We never received a copy of the bill. She took my credit card number. I had to cancel my card when a fraudulent charge was made today.

Clean room and toilet
Heat was not working in the room, I booked 2 double bed for 2 people but got only 1 double bed, soap was not available

The staff was absolutely fantastic, so nice and helpful!
Some of the sheets/blankets had stains and so did the carpet but not because they were dirty; simply some stains which did not effect their functionality
4.5
First off, amazing staff. She was able to accommodate some miscommunications with the booking and handled the situation very well and thoughtfully. The location was perfect for exploring the Saratoga / Wilton area but out of the way enough so it didnt feel too busy. We stayed in room 103, it was simple and clean, more than enough to act as a home base for some hiking and exploring in the area!
9/10 overall, just a few small things just to keep in mind to make your stay the best. The room we were in did not have a garbage bin/bags so we just picked a couple up and the room only had 1 toilet paper roll(Im sure the office would've given us some if needed). The room was 90% clean but just showed its age a little, nothing that was super noticeable. Linins and towels were clean and smelled nice along with fresh soap bars and shampoo in the shower.

Was not opened, we had to find something else somewhere. Booking.com should have known it was not operating

Upon arrival the staff was very friendly and accommodating, only thing I did not care for was the smell of pot in the office, I wished there were some hooks on the bathroom door. The refrigerator and microwave were very handy. The location to downtown and other shopping was very close, the breakfast sandwich was very good.

Good location. Beds OK
Noisy fridge totally iced up. Poor shower.
We were given vouchers for a breakfast roll and coffee at the deli next door as our room rate included breakfast. The deli was closed all weekend so we paid for a breakfast we didn't get.
