What guests think

Across reviews of Richard Lake Motel, guests highlight very clean, budget-friendly rooms and welcoming staff at a basic, older roadside property, with convenient highway access, some traffic noise, small bathrooms, mixed mattress comfort, and limited nearby dining options.

Several reviews note operational issues such as spotty Wi-Fi, heaters not working on arrival, or worn bedding and linens. The setting outside Sudbury suits quick stopovers, and a few guests appreciated being near the lake. Expect a straightforward, no-frills stopover suited to travelers passing through.

As others have mentioned, the place is exceptionally clean and that is the most important thing to me. Bed is comfortable and they provide three types of pillows - firm, orthopaedic and soft. Works well for me. The furnishings are early bad garage/office sale and there is a fridge, microwave (from the 1970’s) and coffee maker. The coffee provided couldn’t make a single cup of coffee. Ice is available through the front desk. Good enough stay for my purposes.

There were no pet friendly rooms, but my dogs were OK to stay in Van. I was disappointed that I could not get TV to work , and there was no coffee supplied for second night stay.

Everything was great! I would just recommend adding salt on the ice near the front door & parking area, it was very slippery.

Before getting to the room. Tge front desk counter wss dirty and sticky. This set the tone ..... The room it sekf had a terrible fake fragrance smell, the floor was dirty and this bed was old and so soft it hurt my hip and shoulder. The other ratings are suspect. Not recommended.

Very old motel in poor condition. Probably very nice 50 years ago. The bathroom was so small you could s—-, shower and shave at the same time. The bed frame was too large for the mattress. Kept stubbing our toes on the legs. My wife eventually wrapped towels around the legs. The step going into the room was too high. We are both in our 70’s and this was a very bad motel. The host ( owner) was very friendly, but I cancelled this location for our return trip.

The photos on the listing are not accurate. It is very run down on the outside. The inside had been updated a bit in the bathroom but the bedsheets were threadbare and the mattress was very old. The door didn’t close well so there was a draft coming through and it was cold outside. There was no additional lock other than the handle lock inside which didn’t make me feel very secure. The floor slanted towards the back of the room. The heater didn’t work and gave off a burnt smell when I tried to turn it on. Overall not a great place to stay.

We were pleasantly surprised with our stay here! Price was great, staff were very friendly, the room was a good size and had all we needed. It was right by a main road but was still pretty quiet (tho we do sleep with ear plugs anyway). Would stay again if passing through the area.

It was nice to have a Friendly and informative receptionist. It was very affordable price in an overall good condition. The only downside was it’s located near the railway, so I heard train’s moving noise but was tolerable (I’m a bit sensitive person).

The motel was easily accessible from the highway and is close enough to Sudbury downtown (about 5 min drive). The staff was helpful and respectful. They were available for a late check-in and even provided us with an upgrade. The room was clean and comfortable.

It is on a main highway so there is some noise, where I live it's noisy so that didn't bother me. when you want to eat you will have to go into Sudbury or maybe order delivery. If you plan on stopping to sleep and then get up in the morning, have a shower and go, for the money I would stay there again.

I stopped in Sudbury after a 16-hour drive and before a similar one the next day. So if you're just looking for a quick stop-over, this hotel is fine. While the place is dated and would benefit some updating and renovations, it still provides a clean room and a shower, with a comfortable bed and TV. No breakfast at this facility and quite out of the way from services. Friendly staff
