Don't be fooled by the outdated appearance - this property is under new management since January 2022 and they are making renovations. The prices are extremely reasonable and best of luck finding a better price. The rooms are clean and good night's rest! We are spending the summer in Monroe NY to be close to surrounding family. My room has been renovated - new floors, newer bathroom, freshly painted, a/c works great and clean, The new management is awesome as well, always friendly and accommodating our needs.

This is a basic roadside motel in a beautiful region. But it's really rundown on the outside. Window panes and curtains are unmatched and a bit foreboding. Room was basic/fine sort of but lots of murky wall damage that suggests rough times. Haze of pot smoke from other rooms and just an aura of iffiness resulted in our paying but not staying. We didnt not fight for refund since their policy was firm but we were just happy to leave and drive into the wee hours of the morning. Convenient that they allow pets since our dog hung out there while we went to event but even that felt iffy. What could improve the James-- hard to say. Aesthetic sure but also I guess vibe. But you get what you get. Allowing a pet was the reason we said there but in fact we didnt really stay!

We travel with two large dogs (over 50 but under 100 lbs.) and this motel fit the bill perfectly. The drive-up motel allows for ease in loading and unloading dogs and luggage. When I booked, I did not realize that part of the motel was two-story and we were booked in the upper floor room. Due to the season, the motel was fully booked and we couldn't be moved to a room on the first floor. This was more of a problem for me than the dogs but it worked out alright for us. The room was clean and spacious and the king size bed very comfortable. This is under new ownership and the owners are really working to modernize the rooms. Rates are reasonable as are pet fees.

We were going to the Renaissance Faire in Tuxedo. Checked in later than we meant to. VERY nice staff were gracious about this. Very clean room smelled faintly (and not unpleasantly) of bleach. It was quiet and the bed was very comfortable. Slept SO well. Will make this the hotel we always stay at to go to the Ren. Faire. Very reasonable price considering competition. Oh, and there's a kickin' Korean place across the street. Please try it.

This is another old hotel from the area that was bought by new owners. The walls still outgas years and years of tobacco odor. Not really the fault of the new owner and I have been in worse. Its adequate for two nights. I wouldn't want to be in there more but its okay.

Great place to stay. Very nice owners. Pet friendly. Clean rooms, crisp linens. Area is safe and peaceful.The only thing I wish they had- recycling program but may be they do not recycle in that area.

the room was spacious. Was somewhat old but clean. By far no Ritz but a comfortable bed for a couple of nights. Not real close to the USMA but few decent eating places, drug store, Etc very close by.I would have no problem staying there again although I would prefer something closer to the Acadamy

We got a room that looked a lot like the photos on Tripadvisor. The bed was supportive and linens were crisp and comfortable. Many nice touches. There's a desk with a power outlet right on the lamp base just like in more expensive hotels. Reading lamps on the bed headboard. A chaise lounge. Nice set of towels and toiletries. Fancy "waterfall" type of bathroom faucet and square "bowl" style sink. Our room 103 was on the ground floor and we parked right next to the door. The outside temps were in the 40's but we were comfortable with the electric baseboard heat controlled by a thermostat in the room. There is an a/c unit, but we did not attempt to test if it was working. On the downside, the bathroom door needed to be painted to cover up a dent, the vanity is supported by 2x1's that were not painted, and the ceiling had water stains. Overall, my wife and I enjoyed our stay despite the imperfections because we saved a bunch of bucks rather than going to a chain hotel. I read from other reviewers that the motel was recently remodeled, so give them some time and the family some business! One last thing - the room had relatively new plush shag carpet. I'm not sure how long that would last or stay clean.…
