This was just the right place for us. We came into town for a concert and the proximity to everything was great. The room had just what we needed at a great price. We will definitely be staying here again when we come back to visit the races!

Great place to stay!

This motel has a great cozy cabin feel close to town. Our room was comfortable, the service was great, and there was the best little breakfast place right across the street.

The room was super clean and the bed very comfortable. It was relatively quiet and good value for money. I wish there had been a bedside light or two, and I did not like the air freshener/cleaning product smell at all. I’m not usually fussy about smells but it was pervasive.

Hidden Gem!

A hidden gem! Beautiful grounds/ relaxing! Older motel/ UPDATED. Room was extra spacious, beds comfortable. Very nice to have kitchette available for coffee, morning breakfast. Having a deck off room - heaven! Was great to have woods / sounds of nature with our coffee in am. Great location - minutes from EVERYTHING!

Fantastic find and cute little property. The owner and staff are nice, and the room felt more like a cottage than motel. I'd recommend earplugs and an eye mask for sleeping - it's right on a busy road and the area is well lit at night.

A newly renovated classic motel

A tucked-away little motel in a fantastic location. Snug in the woods but very close to town and SPAC. Our room was newly redone and immaculate. Plenty of towels, and the property manager sorted out the one issue we had (the battery needed replacing in the thermostat) within an hour. We loved our stay—so did our puppy!—and we will be back.

Small mom and pop motel in an older building, but it looks like it's had some upgrades in recent years (the floors, windows, and doors look like they are newer), and the older stuff seems like it's been kept pretty well maintained. As high as motel/hotel room prices can get in Saratoga during track season, you're getting a lot of bang for the buck. The room had two beds, a full couch, a little kitchen nook with not just a mini fridge and microwave, but also a full size sink, toaster oven, counter space, and a small dining room table with two chairs. The room had two bathrooms, one with a shower, one without. It doesn't have the standard coookie-cutter floor plan that you normally find at most corporately owned motels. It almost feels more like an AirB&B than a motel. It ain't the Hilton, but it's got a lot more personality than a Super 8, and more than serves it's purpose as an affordable place to crash while you're staying in Saratoga.

Simple Hidden Gem

The room was simple and bathroom had very nice towel set ups AND it was all beautifully clean. I'm very particular about cleanliness especially in hotels/motels -actually 1st time in a motel but reviews were so great I thought why not try it for the one night- I'm glad I did. The only things they could improve on would be darker curtains and better quality linens (too thin) which would make it even more comfortable. Would definately stay here again. Oh and when I arrived at 5:30 on very warm day, the a/c was already on full blast!! Very nice surprise!

Not what we expected. We've stayed at the Robin Hood Motel in the past but wanted to check out a Motel closer to town. Won't stay here again.
