We stayed here 3 nights for the 2024 eclipse, it was really affordable, and met my expectations for a motel.
The room was outdated with peeling wallpaper in the bathroom, wobbly chairs, and an AC that needed a new filter (the indicator light was lit), but none of these were a huge deal since the room was clean and we were only in the motel to sleep / eat.
The included breakfast options were sparse, but also not a big deal since we brought non perishables and there were a few microwaves available in public areas. I booked through Travelocity and it didn't say there was an in-room mini fridge, so I brought a portable one to keep drinks cold and was pleasantly surprised when I saw the in room unit. 🙃
There was plenty of parking and the lot was fairly decently plowed after the snowstorm that had hit a couple days prior. The walkway to the lobby for check-in was properly salted as well.
The only issue I had was at check-in, when the desk clerk handed me the wrong invoice to verify my rates, but that was resolved and I was properly billed.
The location was REALLY convenient, near the edge of Lake Placid. It was only a few mins drive into town for Starbucks / McDonald's / fuel; a 40 ish min drive to Lake Tupper (we went to The W!ld Center); and a few mins away from the Olympic Jumping Complex and Mt Van Hoevenburg.
I would definitely consider staying here again for future Lake Placid visits!
