Connor and his partner were awesome! They are redoing property and are doing a great job. If you need anything they are right there to give you it. The room was very clean. We will be back guys!

No complaints at all.
Hospitable staff, and clean room. All newly updated - a lot of pictures online don't show how much work the owners have put into renovating. Had a very pleasant stay, wouldn't hesitate ti book again.

Room was very impressive. All new: furniture, floor, bathroom. They did a great job with a old property converting into minimalist stylish one. It was definitely great experience to stay there. Attention to details is fantastic! Thank you!

Excellent customer service. Room was ready early. It is a little loud but you’re on the main drag. The only complaint is the toilet was too close to the wall making it hard for tall people to use the bathroom.

Stayed to go to an event in Charles Wood Park. Right across the street which was perfect. Things to do very close to hotel. The owner was fantastic! Very friendly and helpful. Contrary to older posts there is an office on property. Let us check in early. Owner is doing a lot of work on rooms. Room was neat and clean. Would definitely stay again 😀

Cute Motel
New owners are clearly putting a lot of work into it. Everything looked clean and lots of newer touches, especially in the bathroom. The bedding was elevated and so so comfortable. Loved the location, easy walk to almost everything but also plenty of parking. Most of all the new owners were onsite throughout the stay and we so accommodating and friendly. Would 100% recommend!! One note: our room at the front was a little loud from the street noise. Did not bother us, I actually like street noise… and it’s probably to be expected BUT if your a light sleeper would probably request a room near the back. 😉

The hotel has new owners and are renovating the hotel, so the pictures don’t do justice. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. The owners were also very nice and recommended local restaurants. Would definitely stay here again!

Arrived to the property at 8pm and the office was closed. There was no employee on site. I called the office phone number and it went to an answering machine stating that “no one was in the office to take the call”. I checked my email and had a message from Lake View Inn saying “The office is open from 3pm to 11pm. Please text or call if you plan to arrive later than 11pm.” So I proceed to call Cliff at the number listed (even though this was during office hours), and it went straight to voicemail. We were not able to reach anyone and weren’t able to check into a room that I had already paid for. This is the most unprofessional and inconvenient experience I’ve EVER had at any hotel/motel/inn.

Out dated, construction going on, building materials all over the place including outside. Room was very scarce on what you would expect to find. Also the room pic's are not of this hotel.

Nothing fancy, just basic clean accommodations for a reasonable price. Within reasonable walking distance to downtown and to the lake. Our room appeared to have been recently renovated with new doors, window and bathroom fixtures. The only thing missing that I usually find in a motel room was a place to hang up a jacket or shirt or two. On the positive side, the normal attire worn in Lake George Village during summer (t-shirt, walking shorts, and good pair of walking shoes) does not require hanging up on a hanger. I believe this motel was a good value for the price.
