Beautifully maintained property in the heart of Potsdam. Walking distance to plenty of places to shop and eat. The coded door made our late check-in easy and painless. So glad we came upon this property. Will definitely recommend to others. Wonderful experience.

I LOVE Pert House! Sal and Jess are wonderful hosts! The only thing I noticed during my most recent stay is that the other occupants had left a mess in the kitchen the evening I arrived back. Perhaps there is a way to kindly ask all occupants to clean up after themselves because the kitchen and sitting areas are shared spaces? Other than that, it's a beautiful place to stay and the continental breakfast, coffee/tea, beverages, and snacks are wonderful! I highly recommend!!

Room and Inn was very clean and inviting. Not sure it’s worth the price as we stayed at another inn and had an amazing fresh cooked breakfast and the price was $100 less. If they had a decent breakfast instead of bread and cereal it would have made it better. The best was comfy and everything was very clean.

Love The Pert House

The stay was wonderful. The owners are very accommodating and responsive. Only complaint is hotels.com communication was delayed. On checkout (today) I received the email Pert house sent for checkin 4 days ago. Very disappointed in hotels.com, but LOVE The Pert house! Would definitely stay there again.

Absentee owners mean indifferent service

Terrible Customer Support. Pert House says they will email instructions the day before arrival, but they failed to do so. As a result, I arrived and had no idea how even to enter the building. There is no front desk, and nobody to report issues to on site. Nobody answers their phone, and nobody returns messages. Wi-Fi did not work in the ASH room. They claim to provide daily maid service, but my room was never cleaned until after I left. Property is beautifully restored, a historic house In a Tiny Adirondack town. Interiors are pristine, maintain well by the cleaning staff. Location is great for downtown locations, but it is a rather long walk from the colleges, and the bus service is only once per hour. Air conditioning and climate control is excellent, modern, updated. Daily continental breakfast options are generous but uninteresting. This is a lovely property but completely without any kind of human touch. By choosing not to have a front desk or manager, this otherwise nice place to stay feels like a ghost house run by robots.
