I was driving to Lake Placid from Rochester, NY and decided to stay at the Shaheen's Motel. Nestled only 35 minutes from Lake Placid, this cozy motel was comfortable and cheap! The staff was super friendly and accommodating. Didn't charge for late check out and got our room heated before we arrived. The bathrooms and decor are stuck in the... More

We spent five weeks touring Canada and the U.S and this was by far the best stay we had. The owners are very pleasant the rooms are very very clean and the surroundings are lovely. Good Restaurants and good food Margaret Salkeld Abingdon on Thames United Kingdom

My wife and I have stayed twice at Shaheen's, both times winding our way back through the Adirondacks from the 1000 Islands to my family in Massachusetts. There are so many warm feelings I have about this place, I'm not sure where to begin. Here's my top 5 1. $84 October 2012 2. Watching a truly family-run motel and thinking... More

We booked this place because of TripAdvisor and we weren't disappointed. The room was spotless, especially the bathroom. The beds were very comfortable. It was a pleasant stay. The continental breakfast was more than enough to satisfy us. We also found the owners helpful and pleasant. Great find in the Adirondacks.

This is a classic 2 story motel, extraordinarily clean. In fact it is so clean you can't believe someone isn't in there with a Q-tip in the corners! The size of the room was very comfortable, and in addition to 2 double beds we had a good size table by the large window overlooking a wooded back yard. The toilet/shower/sink... More

This is your classic 40-50 year old style motel, it is very nice. Spacious rooms compare well with modern big name hotel chains. Desk, table chairs, microwave/fridge combo, but flat screen TV w/ cable. Nice roomy bathrooms. Staff made us feel VERY welcome. Lots of suggestions when asked. Nice breakfast - continental but no fruit. Cereals, coffees, bagels, donuts, muffins,... More

Old style motel, L shape with pool, parking in front of the room. We appreciated the large room with two Queen size beds surprisingly comfortable, quiet with large windows on trees and the neighbours' garden at the back, space for luggages, sink separate from the bathroom. For travelers, the fridge is very convenient. The rooms was really squeaky clean, the... More

Shaheen's is THE place to stay for a hiking or paddling trip. Comfortable rooms of adequate size, good size refrigerator to store your food. The owners are a great friendly couple that will go out of your way to make your stay a pleasant one, and they're there to offer great advice on where to eat. There's a typical continental... More

This motel was a pleasant surprise. The accommodations were as good as any chain but with a much more affordable price than staying at Saranac Lake. We had a refrigerator, a microwave, spacious room, and comfortable beds. The owners were friendly, it is centrally located and is quite close to The Wild Center (a worthwhile stop) and close to Saranac... More
