The bathroom sink was clogged and I pulled out so much hair and gunk. When someone came by to plunge it, they left a mess for me to clean up. Manager was pleasant to work with, however.

Lake Placid Inn Main Street
Amazing location! Easy check in and friendly staff. Small issue with appliances in the apartment which was quickly resolved. Our 1 bedroom suite was perfect for a couple but could also accommodate small kids on a pull out couch in the living room. Highly recommend and would stay again!
