Lynburke Motel, Lyndonville

My husband has informed me that there was indeed a telephone in the room, which I didn't see, and that the "squashed insects" on the ceiling (which I was too afraid to investigate) were in fact damaged ceiling tiles. I apologize for these inaccurate comments, which were made in good faith, and hope that those of you looking for a motel in this price range, will not be put off.

We booked a room here because we were attending a wedding at the Wildflower Inn in Lyndonville and couldn't afford Wildflower Inn rates. If you are looking for those comforts you have come to expect from a medium priced motel ($75 per night), this is not the place to go. No coffee machine, hairdryer, Kleenex, ice bucket or telephone. Forget about the ironing board! A fly swat was provided... There seemed to be a couple of large insects stuck to the ceiling, but I could not ascertain this for sure as I didn't want to get any closer to them...there was also no fan in the bathroom to "freshen" it. One of the lamps didn't work, as opposed to the outside of the motel which was so brightly lit it was like daylight inside the room, even with the curtains drawn - so bring some form of blackout to hang over the window if you decide to stay here. The beds were pretty good, but with the light pouring in it was very difficult to get a night's sleep. The pool looked OK, but I didn't try it. The shower was good and the"Victoria's Garden" mini hand and body lotion was nice!

This is a classic motel that has undergone a lot of exterior renovations this past year. The rooms are clean and comfortable, but are a bit dated. The new ownership was starting on the interior room renovations while we were there. We enjoyed meeting Crystal, the manager. She was very warm and helpful. We'll be back this winter.

We got there in August 2006. The good points about this hotel are: the staffs is really nice & helpful, also this is the only hotel with a pool near by. But the room need to be redone. The room need refreshment starting from the carpet and the bathroom are very old. The exterior is under repair.

Convenient location for skiing,restaurants,etc. Very nice, friendly people (owners&employees)...helpful info about the area,etc.The rooms are clean,well-heated in winter,A/C in summer.They make you feel welcome and became good friends over the many years of staying there.
