SInce it had been newly renovated we thought the motel would be a good deal. It was NOT. There was urine on the toilet and hair on the shower walls. The floor was filthy and the room was simply generally unclean. I would not recommend it no matter how tight you budget is. More

...but we had a reservation and no place else to go on short notice. When I saw it on Tripadvisor, I liked the price and the pictures of the river, but those were the only good things about this place. (Actually, it's over priced.) I thought the people with the negative reviews might be "fussy", which I'm not. I wish... More

Looks nice from the outside and it's a pretty piece of property. The things you are likely to touch in the room look clean, but around the edges of the floors there is lots of dirt, lint and who knows what. Walls had globs of something on them, back of the door was revolting. Given the location and scarcity of... More

Ewwwww, OMG and more. We walked in and ran the hell out. Requested our money back, after threatening we'd call the cops. We got our money back. 4 Girls on a girls weenend trip, a little wine tasting and some shopping and we were hoping for a nice nights sleep. Absolutely not. I won't go on with details. I would...

Finding an acceptable room in August on this part of Long Island can be a pain-in-the.... Finding one that can be had for a single night can be even MORE of a hassle. Believe me, I've tried...a number of times. That's why the Swiss Motel was such a surprise: clean rooms (I needed two), with no two-or-three-night minimum reservation, for... More

I stayed here while attending a friend's wedding. One of the staff canceled my reservation, even though it was prepaid through Priceline. After a ton of haggling, and almost arriving late to the Friday function preceding the wedding, I was able to secure a room. That is NOT the good news, because my fiance and I contracted scabies, and brought... More

The service could just not balance the poor condition and quality of the rooms. The bright blue carpet and old blue tile bath I could live with, but the lighting was hideous, and the room felt so dirty. After staying at the W in New York, I felt like I went to hell at the Swiss. The owner/gentleman was so... More

This little motel is a jewel. It is unpretentious, very quiet and has a charming garden and small lawn the width of the property that runs right down to waters edge on the Peconic River. When we first arrived I had my reservations, but the quietness and peacefulness of the setting grow on you. The rooms are bare basics, although... More
