What guests think

Reviews of Pleasant Night Inn Carthage Near Fort Drum describe a place that suits quick overnights, with some guests finding clean, quiet rooms and friendly staff, while many others report worn conditions, inconsistent cleanliness, and mixed experiences overall.

Cleanliness feedback ranges from clean rooms to serious issues like dirty bathrooms, stained linens, musty odors, and in a few cases bedbugs. Rooms feel dated, beds can be uncomfortable, and noise varies from quiet stays to disturbances, early-morning activity, or traffic. Service runs hot and cold: some note welcoming staff and flexible check-in, while others cite rudeness, unprofessional behavior, and confusion over checkout and breakfast availability. Expect a very basic, low-cost stay best for a short stop.

They honored our request for ground floor room close to parking. I think there were only a few guests, so that was easy. The beds were comfortable. The microwave & fridge were clean & worked fine. Old, wornout furniture in the room--scratched, gouged up, etc. Sticky bathroom floor. Seriously in need of upgrades. "Breakfast" was coffee & tea--thankfully we weren't planning on it being our actual meal. Huge issue with checkout time. Listed on Expedia as 11am, when I checked in, I was told 10am & they charge an extra day immediately for late checkout. AND they have a sign saying 10am! Chatted with Expedia--they called the property & were told, something like "No we have 11am not 10am checkout. No extra charge if they stay until 11! We have an early checkout option." But they have that sign...and EVERY hotel lets you leave before the official checkout time! I wasted my key points on this one!

the price was right but the curtains were torn, run was torn, bathroom curtain was hun backwards. The firepit looked like garbage was being burned outside, the phone didn't work for room to room communications. The property needs a bit of TLC to fix it up.

This location was clean, quiet, and comfortable. The rooms are spacious. The entire place is a bit run down, which is reflected in the price you pay. Bedding looks like it's straight out of the 1970s. Carpets in the hallways and rooms show some kind of stains at the edges by the walls, looks like bleach. Overall it wasn't a bad stay, I'd stay here again if in the area.

The property was filthy, it was infested with bedbugs, and the staff was nowhere to be found. The clientele did not make me feel safe. I didn’t even spend the night there.

Very unspectacular. Dated and dingy. Nothing was horrendous, but nothing stood out either. Mattress was old and lumpy. A few small stains on the bedspread. Slightly musty smell in the room but not overwhelming. Spartan and utilitarian. Fine for a night, decent value for the price.

They let us do a very late check in at 1 am/ let them know ahead. Very inexpensive to stay, nothing fancy but staff was friendly, everything clean.

The entire place smells so strongly of deodorizer it left my eyes and throat burning. Lots of road noise and uncomfortable beds. Obvious stains on sheets and carpet. Bathroom was surprisingly clean so getting a shower was the best part of my stay. This place has seen better days.

I look for lodging in smaller communities because I worry about my car etc in urban areas. This was comfortable and quiet. Not much business it seems as I counted only five cars as I left early in the morning. I’ll return next time I find myself in the Watertown area.

I stayed only overnight in October. Property a bit tired and run down. Bed decent slept ok. Pillows ok. Shower clean and water pressure decent. Served it’s purpose for a 1 night stay. I usually stay at the hotels in Evans Mills when I’m up but was only up for 1 day and needed to be as close to Carthage as possible. Not sure if u recommend at all if you want nice atmosphere because place is really only useful for a quick in and out situation.

The room I had booked was not ready, key lock didn’t work, was moved to a different incomplete room that was dirty and when I asked for room service was not given any for the entire stay. The only person who I had encountered actually came to get me in my room with a bad door lock with a towel wrapped around him as if he had just gotten out of the shower. Very unprofessional!

We paid $24 for Continental breakfast but they don't offer it. We were also told check out was 11, but it is really 10. The site needs to be updated to what the hotel offers.

You should reconsider your association with this motel. Upon arrival we noticed many men drinking near the fire pit area, "o.k. men traveling enjoying each others company." About 10 p.m. definite yelling and fighting in one or more rooms. About 2 am woman screaming and other's loud talking. In morning we were told by community business persons this is a known temporary residence for released pedophiles and sex offenders. IF THIS IS TRUE THEN: We, the usual traveler, should not be uninformed and exposed to this situation and possible danger. Plus, we need our sleep! Understanding there are laws; I need to trust you will only offer me safe, honest and reliable residences for me to sleep while on vacation. Again, reconsider your association with this and any other such motels. Or find a legal way to warn your clients!
