What a great spot. The hotel rooms are much more up to date than the pictures show. We loved the Roku TVs and room refrigerator. The game room was nice for our young family. Just make sure you bring quarters. A special thank you to Jamie for the special attention to our little boys. Taking a look at the Halloween decor and playing with the crafts was a highlight of their trip. We also enjoyed the terrific breakfast and fire pits. We'll be back someday soon!
Our family, including the dog, was looking for a last minute, one night stay in the Old Forge/Inlet area so we could do some end of end season leaf seeing/hiking. After making several calls I ended up talking with the folks at the Marina Motel. Although they were fully booked the owner made the effort to check with one of her other guests who she thought might be checking out earlier than expected. She confirmed that was the case, called me back and we were set to go. Rooms were clean, beds comfortable and some of the room accepted dogs. Everything was great for our family. Plus it was a short (2 minute) walk into town so when the time came to grab dinner we never needed to get back into our car to go find someplace to eat.
We had a great stay in this hotel. Its very clean and well kept from the porch to inside of the room including bathroom. ( excellent and spot clean). Beddings and towels are clean. Place is walking distance from business areas including stores, parks, restaurants. Owners are very nice and accomodating. They serve fresh local baked goods. ( donuts are to die for😊). They have awesome halloween decors and my kids loved and enjoyed them! We will definitely come back and stay in this hotel! Highly recommended!
Great place to stay even after our 1st stay in 2018 as it keeps getting better. New sidewalks in front of the rooms, newly painted outside and new sharp red roof and stone/gravel parking(you appreciate even the parking areas when you travel a lot like we do). They still have Simmons Beautyrest mattresses which used to be the #1 mattress brand in Consumers Reports when I sold them in Syracuse in the mid 80's(not all mattresses are great even if they have a BIG name on them). The owners Jamie and Henry do a great job taking care of the place!
Marina Motel review
Let me begin by saying that I have been a repeat guest for quite a while. There are literally a mountain of reasons why. Jamie and her family are incredibly nice and welcoming. They bend over backwards to accommodate any request and fulfill it immediately. Jamie, Henry, Lexie, and Gracie have my utmost respect for what they do and how they interact with everyone. The rooms are immaculately clean. Updated tv,lamps with USB ports, great Wi-Fi , air conditioning, plentiful hot (!) showers - even the sheets and towels have a pine-fresh scent! If you ever plan on vacationing in the Adirondacks, this is the only place to stay.
PS Jamie-I want one of those t-shirts!
