Motel is clean and cared-for, but definitely from the 60's-70's. Imagine the motel in Schitt's Creek. I am fine with that, but anyone should know it's not modern. Stayed overnight for two ski days; plenty of room to spread out, plenty of hot water, bed was adequately firm. Recommend for the price.

Had to call and ask for salt to be spread on the sidewalk outside the door to control the dangerous ice. Hot water took a VERY long time to get to the bathroom sink and shower. Noticed the U.S. flag was completely ripped. That flag is not serviceable and should have been replaced before it reached that state.

I pulled up and the property looked abandoned. It had snowed the night before, and at 5:00pm when I arrived, the driveway was still not plowed. It was difficult to determine which door was the reception area, and there were no lights on. It was also apparent I would have been the only guest. Basically the whole place was sketchy and made me very uncomfortable. I had pre-paid for the room through expedia with a requirement to cancel a day or two before arrival for a refund. But how can I be held to that since I did arrive with the intention to stay, but only after seeing this place did I want to cancel for my own safety ? To their credit, the person checking me in, when I expressed my concerns, said they would not hold me to the reservation and would refund my money. They said the credit would have to be managed through Expedia though, and they would approve it. This is not what happened. The Manager of the property whom I later spoke with basically refused to honor what their employee committed to. Effectively they stole the money from me as I did not use their services, but they kept my money. The place is old and run down, but the price reflects that. I was not expecting a 5 star establishment, but I would have expected at the very least, a safe environment. This place and the people running this place are to be avoided.

The property is very dated but clean and easily accessible. They could benefit from updating everything and redoing the bathroom areas. It’s like going back to the 1980’s. It is clean though and the bedding is comfortable. Issue…when I arrived I was told I already checked in. I clearly had not checked in so I showed my ID. Owner showed me a piece of paper with all the guests names handwritten and crossed out. He mildly argued for a bit that someone already claimed my room. Then he got the number of the guest who checked in after yelling up the stairs to his wife after which she called out the phone number of said guest. The owner called him in front of me and asked if he had used the bed yet. I said I am absolutely not taking a room that some man has been in for many hours. My name is Wendy and his was Kevin. They clearly just gave the room away in error. So I was left with a “deluxe” double bed room but I had booked a two king room for me and my kids. I’m just happy they had a room on reserve after driving for 4 hours in whiteout conditions. Good intent but lack of any sort of social skills and appropriateness regarding hospitality.

The front "office" was completely dark and closed when we arrived at 6pm. We ended up driving around the facility front a couple of times before ringing the door bell to have a gentlemen come downstairs, turn the lights on, and quickly give us a key to a room. He was nice, but no information was provided including wifi code. The room was what one might expect from a motel for the cost. It was clean, but exceptionally outdated. A random plank of wood was just on the floor. The heating system worked, but was very loud and didn't operate at the temperature we set. It was great for the price, but not sure I'd stay again

Good nice cost effective place to stay in town. Only thing that got me check in was very odd and not clear. The check in area was dark and i had to ring a doorbell 10 times to finally get in. We came in late.

Fine for a solo stay

This old motel has been here for years. The room was clean, but that is about it. Everything was dated, including the furnishings, although I can’t complain because I paid less than $100 for one night stay. About 10 minutes away from the center of Manchester And about 20 or 30 minutes away from Stratton Mountain? Some guests seem to be here for an extended period. Not much of a staff on hand.

The property is a little old, but it is very well managed and cared. Rooms are spacious and parking is easy. The service can improve a little, and things like the WiFi password should be easily available. But overall, it is a good non-expensive stay in the area.
