It was a great spot , close to town. The rooms were comfortable and clean . The view of the lake at the back of the property was gorgeous. The initial code that was sent to me to get in the room did not work but I called and got assistance immediately and she stayed on the phone with us until we got in the room . The only negative comment I have is the limited parking spots . It snowed while we were there and it made the limited space even more challenging.

I loved this hotel last year and booked again for the same work event. This year however, the shower nob was broken when we first got there, so we couldn’t shower for the first night. And the heat/air con wasn’t responding to the thermostat, so it was either off and freezing, or reading 80 degrees.

Great property on the lake
Great location, a short walk to Maine street with direct access to Lake Placid. The room was great- I was a little concerned about the self-checking, but it worked fine.

Good spot in Lake Placid
We had a few hiccups when we first arrived and though the property was not staffed we found they were responsive by phone and text. We could walk to downtown, though long, but on well maintained sidewalks. Beautiful views of the mountains over the lake. Grocery store nearby.

Very conviniently located for a hike in the Adirondack's, just 20 minutes away from the Adironadack Loj. Very close to restaurants and shops in Lake Placid. Nice waterfront (Bay) setting. Our room (King room) was slightly tight for the furniture in it (I stubbed my toe on the chair between the bed and bathroom!) but we appreciated all the amenities :)

It was walking distance to town and clean. Couldn’t shut the heat off so had to sleep with the air conditioner on all night even though it was 50° outside. The only way to contact was online. They had no nobody in the office. I didn’t like that.
