I told them we got married that day and they had rose petals and a nice bottle of wine and two glasses for us. We got a room on the end so the sunset view in the morning was gorgeous! It was clean and a big room for an incredible rate!

Very clean room with polite and courteous staff.Easy to check in, front desk let me check in 4 hours early which is always a plus The girl who does the cleaning should teach and instruct other cleaning staff in and around Plattsburgh NY. She does a phenomenal job. I had a room on the 2nd floor with beautiful views of Lake Champlain, minutes from the public beach, restaurants and the interstate.

Best motel experience I have had. Staff was friendly and came quickly when called despite my not being able to check in until 1 a.m. The room had some wear but was comfortable, clean, and everything worked as it should. The location is very easy to get to and the views of the lake are very nice. I would recommend staying here even if it was more expensive, but since it was not, I would recommend staying here over any of the alternatives in Plattsburgh.
