Very clean with towel replacement, garbage emptied, bathroom tidied… The air conditioner was excellent which was appreciated give the excessive temperatures. Refrigerator worked well. I was given several bottled waters upon request. Coffee was available first thing in the morning. Managers were very friendly and accommodating. Will definitely stay again.

Very clean. Nice owners. Very basic. No usb to charge devices. Being a senior citizen, I would like to have hand holds in shower as I’m not real steady on my feet. Also, bring your own toiletries as there is not much supplied. I would probably stay here again.

My husband and I visited friends up north for 5 days and we stayed in the Scottish Inns in Potsdam for 4 nights. The motel room was spotless; which we really appreciated. The owners were lovely, and welcoming. We would definitely stay there again. There is an amazing gift store directly across the street to browse.

We had a very pleasant stay. The staff were friendly, check in was quick and easy. Our room was very clean, beds were comfortable with plenty pillows. No complaints! We will stay here again on future trips to Potsdam. Our son attends nearby Clarkson University, and this motel is within 5 minutes of the college.

Quaint Stay
Convenient location. Ok price. Small room. Very loud neighbors especially at 6 in the morning. Loud vehicles! Was ok for what I needed but got very little sleep.
