Decent for the price, but...
Liked: The check-in was the best. It was great to be able to get an access code without going to the front desk. We were able to complete the entire state without having to see or speak to anyone in person. The location was also very good. Across the street from the lake with partial views, and close to downtown Saranac Lake and reasonably close to Lake Placid. The room was a decent size and parking was easy.
Disliked: The room had a couple of quirks that, if corrected, could have greatly improved the stay. For starters, there was only one bedside table. One side had nothing which is annoying when looking to put a book, phone, drink, etc. somewhere. There were no sheer curtains. And since this is a motel with windows facing the parking lot, anyone can see in your room unless you have the blackout curtains drawn. Sheer curtains would be a perfect middle ground.Speaking of curtains, the shower didn't have liner curtain like most do. It was just a fabric curtain which made you choose between putting it on the outside and getting water all over the floor, or putting it on the inside of the tub and soaking the curtain. There were only 2 pillows in the room. Not the end of the world, but it made for a less than comfortable night (we got in too late to request more). It wouldn't be too much work to add 2 more pillows. Finally, cleanliness was just so-so. The carpet felt pretty grimy and the bathroom had grime as well. The sheets were clean, but the bed was poorly made (nothing tucked, just sheets pulled over the pillows). There was a good deal of dust everywhere.None of this is horrible stuff, but it made the difference between an OK and a great stay.

10 out of 10! Highly...
Liked: 10 out of 10! Highly recommend! This is what happens when the owner pays attention to the details! Towels, cosmetics, water temperature and pressure, bedding, mattress, pillows—everything was of excellent quality! I mentioned that I would bring my dogs with me, and in the room, I found a new dog bed and trays with bowls for food and water. Such a small detail that shows how much the owner and staff care about their customers! Thank you for that! The view from the window was incredible! This lake, the foliage, the mountains—oh my! It was pretty quiet at night despite the road right next to the motel. I hope I have the chance to come back in the winter!
Disliked: One suggestion: it would be nice to have extra hangers or a wardrobe.

Pleasant
Liked: Location, Jacuzzi, and comfy bed.
Disliked: The whole place smelled like cigarette smoke, which got on our clothes even after just 12 hours. Also, the decor was very bizarre. Everything in the room was very spread out, giving it an odd feeling.

Great stay
Liked: The Sara Placid Inn is in a great location, with easy access to the town, but with enough distance to feel a bit more isolated. I stay in this hotel every time I travel to Saranac Lake (which I do frequently) and the rooms are always clean and comfortable, with great television services, great wifi, and great access to the town.
Disliked: The parking lot can get a bit muddy when it rains, which is pretty common for the area, and it isnt really anyones fault. No one can fix the rain.

Sara Placid inn
Liked: Location fine, view of lake fine
Disliked: Too many emails and texts. I'm traveling and don't need multiple identical notes.Not very clean, noisy - electronic sounds, need help with tv and no alarm clock visible- behind a credenza. No on-site manager
