The Cadet Motel was the most affordable motel in the area and was close to fast food restaurants in nearby New Windsor and close to Highland Falls and West Point south on Highway 9W. The room offered two double beds and a satisfactory bathroom.

Basic but clean and comfy

A basic roadside motel, but the room and bathroom were very clean and the bed was super comfortable. I got a great night's sleep and that's what counts.

Old school charm.

Was exactly what I wanted from an old school motel. The memories only, if those walls could talk.

Unexpectedly good for a property that's rather unassuming looking on the outside. The room was clean (including the bathroom); had a fairly good air conditioner and refrigerator plus MW oven. Beds were comfortable. A good deal.

Bad even for a cheap motel

The place reeked of weed. The sink leaked water. The bathroom pipes were old and rusted and the mattresses had almost no padding at all. The place was cheap but at the very least, have a decent mattress for me to sleep on.

The property owners were friendly and attenative. We had a leak in our bathroom and they moved us to a new room immediately when it wasnt a simple fix. They were quick to respond to the issue too. The first room with the leak the beds were rock hard but the room we gor moved to was much nicer with softer beds. It certainly isnt a luxury stay but a descent place to rest your head for the night.

Stayed for 3 days due to proximity to my destination. Only needed somewhere to sleep each night. Lady at the desk was pleasant and friendly. (one star). Took me a minute to figure out where the "office" was, other than that, checkin/checkout was simple (half star) Cleaning service was horrible. Only came in to change out towels. Beds weren't made, bathroom was not cleaned. (no stars) Dirty shower curtain that barely made it to the edge of the tub. (no stars) Would not stay here again.

Very clean. Basic. No decor to speak of. Screened windows are appreciated to avoid turning on air conditioning. But good to have when needed. Also, we appreciated the sports bar and grill next door, as well as its proximity to the Storm King Arts Center.

This is an OK, inexpensive place to catch some zzz's while you explore Newburgh, Storm King Art Center, the nice dining in the area, etc. It's not the Ritz and it doesn't pretend to be. No iron, coffee maker, or hair dryer. Wifi and cable TV are reliable. The wall unit heated the room nicely.

It was close to West Point which is where the trip was planned around. There were plumbing issues, sink and shower drained slowly and left a lot of soap scum as a result. Manager made correction same day I told him but plumbing was already slowing down again by the next morning...needs more than Drano.
