it was our first time visiting the area (i looked at lots of options around the lake george & saratoga springs area), and we couldn’t be happier that we picked the howard johnson at lake george. long story short - this place was everything we could’ve asked for, including an affordable price point.
we had easy access to multiple restaurants, gift shops, and even the lakeside within minutes of a walk towards the main street.
the staff were a pleasure to interact with, including those at the front desk and the housekeepers.
the day we left, the housekeeper was cleaning the room adjacent to ours since those guests checked out early that morning. we crossed paths while packing our car when she asked if we could hear any noise through the walls (we didn’t), and told us she did her best to flip the room quietly so that she didn’t disturb us. i was blown away by her compassion for her guests and the effort she clearly puts in to ensure her guests enjoy their stay.
highly recommend!
