We stayed over Memorial Weekend. From the time to making reservations to arrival time the owners were great to work with. We had a group of 12 and had no problems. Very clean, price was right, and location was great. Could walk to everything. We would stay again.

This is my 5th year staying at the Ship Motel, and I have already booked for 2014. Perfect location, within walking distance of shopping district, restaurants, and Alex Bay planned events. Hot coffee is always brewing at the office in the morning. I love it because it handy, a one minute walk puts me right on the Main Street.

Dean was very helpful on restaurant recommednations in the area. I would definitely stay again. My only thing was the bed was a bit soft for me,... More

We arrived at Alexandria Bay mid-afternoon on a Saturday, with no reservation. Luckily we got the last room at this motel which is well situated in the Center of town, so you can walk everywhere. It is not luxurious, but very clean. We are in our 50's as were most of the people staying there (which doesn't mean it was... More

Group of 12-14 of us will be visiting Alex Bay for a weekend this summer (two years in a row now) and will be once again staying at the Ship Motel. The owner/manager, Dean, is extremely friendly and helpful. Love the fact that it's right in the middle of town, so it's a nice easy walk back to your room... More

What a disappointment. Although a two star AAA rating, our bed was awful...sit on the edge and slip right off. Was clean. Room was tired and worn out looking. When I asked about a coffee maker, they indicated I could get it at the office in the morning. What they didn't say was that the office didn't open until after... More
