Best Western Plymouth Inn-White Mountains

10/10 Excellent
"The maintenance guy was the life of this place. He was full always of life and could sing one hell or a tune. The front desk workers were also very helpful. My only complaint would be that the room wasn’t super clean but not enough to bother. This place is right off the highway and easy to transport around. Parking isn’t an issue at all as well. It was very quiet and peaceful. Great for the price honestly. Oh also the breakfast was pretty dang good."

8/10 Good
"We came up to this area in New Hampshire for a concert. This area was quaint, but the rooms were definitely what you would expect near a beachside resort or on this case of Lakeside resort. The carpet is worn. The stairs are concrete and most of the paint is chipped off. There was a plastic spoon for some reason outside my room that stayed there for the continuation of my stay. The toilet seat had a chip on it. All that said, I thought that the staff were great and the area was fantastic, and saw that some guests had their dogs with them, which should be a great opportunity for next time. The price point was just over $500 for this room, which is expensive but on a very busy beautiful summer weekend what do you expect in such a sought after area? We will be back despite all of these rooms in the Palmer house needing an Upgrade."
