We love the hotel, very peaceful, excellent outdoors space, access to lake placid, gorgeous view, and very quiet. The pool is amazing, the rooms are clean and newly renovated. Best TV , prime, Disney. One negative is that the paddle boats fins were broken, so were the seats on the kayaks. I hope the hotel updates/ maintains equipment. The canoe has both center seats broken. My daughter looked forward to going on the water and she did not, we had to rent a paddle boat in town. Other than that everything was perfect.

Virtual check in
If a hotel check in is virtual than the systems have to be reliable. My check in was not. At 4, check in time, the lobby was packed with people waiting for check in but no keys. Fortunately, a staff member jumped in and took care of it.

The toilet in the room we were given, Room 104, is broken; it wobbles in its place over an inch in height when any weight is put on it. It was inexcusable.

The shower curtain was very dirty in the bathroom, even though the rest of the room seemed pretty clean. Also, the TV was very complicated and the instruction sheet was not very clear. We were grateful, however, for the willingness of the staff member to come to our room and show us how to operate it.

We enjoyed the vintage feel of The Pines Inn, however, our TV didn't work. We appreciated a staff member coming up to try to resolve the issue , but she wasn't able to. The wifi was also very spotty. And finally, while the room seemed fairly clean, the shower curtain in the bathroom was filthy with mold and stains. That was very disappointing.

I didn’t enjoy my room
It’s an old hotel and I understand the historic value. I tried to enjoy the nice antique living room-like hotel-front and walking around the nice near-lake walk. But I could not enjoy my room: the curtain was too old and too thin to cover the window, the floor above me was noisy at every step upstairs (it felt like it was bouncing and you can imagine how noisy that could be at bedtime), the peeling wall paper was a mess. I’d like to support unique hotels but this hotel was hard to appreciate and to get comfortable. Perhaps I should not complain because it was one of the lowest rates?

I’m surprised this place is allowed to be open. This scream health and safety violation. There is mold in the rooms and the bathrooms. The room had severe water damage it looked like the ceiling was going to collapse. I would highly recommend spending a few extra dollars and going to a nicer hotel. The staff was non existent. I never seen someone at front desk the whole 2 nights we stayed there

If you’re looking for a relaxing place to rest your head after a day filled with hikes and swimming in the local watering holes, the Pinewood Inn is not the spot for you. When I arrived there was nobody at the front desk (in the two days I stayed there I did not see an employee). Keys were left in an envelope with my name and room # on it. As I traversed the stairs the smells emanating from every corner tickled my senses in the most unpleasant way. I noticed not only the vintage decor, but also the claw marks on the second floor wallpaper. It was of a demon beast had been using this hotel as its hunting ground. Nevertheless, I continued up the stairs to my 3rd floor sanctuary (no elevator). When I arrived I was greeted with a hallway filled with old, broken chairs, a mattress in the hall, an old microwave, and an old mini fridge. I passed my room and wandered down the hall to take a further look, behind extra careful not to touch any of the exposed wires running along the hallway. At the far end of the 3rd floor I noticed some doors that were installed leaving a 1 inch gap where I could peer inside. A glance inside that room was reminiscent of an old news broadcast I saw many years ago. It was similar looking to the scenes of abandoned and destroyed homes following Hurricane Katrina. I quickly scampered away back towards my room, noting the uncovered electric box in the hallway. When I entered my room I was overcome with a sense of doom….to be continued.

As advertised. Never got my message about checking in so that waisted time trying to figure that out. The neighbors next door have a bright light so the room never got dark. The food was OK at best. There was no water for coffee either morning. There was a same were stack in my bathroom and I could tell there was significant water damage in the last few years. I do not think there is any mold issue. It was OK to sleep in for the price.
