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.

The name and pictures are very misleading. Wgen you call they answer Scottish Inn. The bed was clean the show on the other hand was filthy and cracked. I suppose the grounds is also for extended stays as well, but the people sat outside and talked which woke me up in the middle of the night. You get what you pay for I suppose.

Walked into a dirty room. Floors we're filthy. Broken desk drawer. Asked for clean towels 2 days in a row. Never got towels we ended up leaving 2 days early. Under the sheets were horrible. Burn holes. Actual mattress was stained. It was a cheap hotel. But very nasty. .

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.

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.

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.
