I stayed here when I visited Thousand Island. The staff was friendly, always available, and was fun to talk to about sport. He knew his stuff, especially about fantasy football. The rates were very reasonable and the room was clean. The manager made sure that the parking lot was plowed during the winter and in the summer flowers surrounded the facility. Some people may have been "shady" but I was not bothered and was not worried about my safety. Good place to go if you need a room at a reasonable price.

Cheap, friendly staff

This is another of "Watertown's Finest" hotels! Do not stay here! Management was very rude and refused to refund room! The rooms are disgusting, cock roaches, bed bugs, and someone took a crap on the floor that had not been cleaned up. Quite a pile! Had two women want to "sell me their services" and was offered "pharmaceutical services" by another "patron"! This place should be avoided at all costs!!!

Rehab for pimps, druggies, hoes, and the like!

The room  was cheap, we booked  with 1 day notice...only place with open rooms...now we know why!  
First inkling this was a really BAD move...The place was falling apart. But we checked in anyway .
Things got worse & worse.
There were  people  hanging out on the 2nd floor balcony--obviously  drunk & still drinking. Filthy clothes on. Staring at a family that was getting  out of a car with Canadian  plates & making lewd gestures at them.
Really gross & inappropriate  behavior.
 We had booked mobility  impaired  room. Nope. Second floor. Not only no elevator , but outside rickety  stairs that shook when we stepped on them.
Then the room. OMG. The  doorknob FELL OFF WHEN WE TRIED TO UNLOCK THE DOOR!! Had to kick the door open like something  out of a bad cop movie. We were sorry we bothered. The room was FILTHY. Bugs & dirt everywhere. A giant bug of some sort flew by my head and out the door--he must have been as scared as me!
Went to the hotel office & complained--the owner? manager? LAUGHED & said "We will fix the door tomorrow" and walked away!!
He was obviously  surprised  when I said I wasn't  staying in a filthy  room without  a doorknob . 
He didn't  want to refund me...insisted I had to take another room..well, I agreed. Second room was worse than the first--even dirtier, and the SMELL!
I went back to the office and DEMANDED  a refund. After threatening  to call police, he refunded me.
We slept in our car...showered  at a state park...
The next day, another person at the same event who was local told us that local social services agency uses it as a halfway  house for drug addicts and sex offendersbecause it is cheap!
You get what you pay for I guess

Somewhere  under the rainbow  giant bugs fly...

Staying at this motel was like stepping back in time - to the 1980s. Decor and furniture was dated and the TV was an old one - at least it was color and had a remote. And the room did have a working air conditioner.
The towels were slightly threadbare and there were only two bath towels and two washcloths - no hand towel. The sink was an old type and the water pressure was very low in both the sink and tub. The tub had rust spots on the bottom and messy caulking on the sides. The hot water took a long time to get to the faucet and it would come and go while using the shower. The sheets were scratchy and the pillows were lumpy. There was a small refrigerator (that we had to plug in) and a microwave (that we didn't use.) There was no coffee maker and no ice bucket, both of which I missed having. We stayed two nights (Friday to Sunday) and after being gone all day on Saturday, we returned to a room that had not been serviced - beds unmade, wet towels, etc. They did give my husband clean towels when he when down to the office and they did apologize. It seems they "forgot." 
The only good things were the location - right on Route 12, just off Route 81, close to both Clayton and Alexandria Bay - and the price ($40 a night). However, as I told my husband who had booked this room based on the price, money isn't everything. At least it was clean and had no bugs. It was worth the price - $40 - but no more. I will not stay here again. My comfort is worth more.

Flashback motel

The most horrible hotel in my life! Everything is disgusting: microwave all dirty, the refrigerator doesn't cool at all and the towels and bedsheets are nasty!!! Please, if you can stay in other place and want to enjoy your vacation do NOT stay here!!!!
