Too much money for this old musky smelling motel. Won’t be back.

The coffee lounge area was a nice addition, and the only thing i liked. Coffee was good. Liked the bulletin board with all the dog pictures and the picture of the Westie in the suit as I have a Westie back home i miss.

Walked into the room and about fell over from the horrible odor in the room. It was hard to get to sleep. The fan didn’t even get rid of it. Smelt like mildew. Also bumped mu head real hard when i bent over in the bathroom to pick up my clothes and hit the top of my head on the corner of a cubical shelf they had hung on the wall. Bad place to position it.

Like having a fridge and microwave. Coffee in the morning in the main lobby is a nice touch, thank you! Ice cube tray in the freezer is nice to have as well! The room was clean and the air conditioner filters were clean as well!

Bed is very firm, stayed in room 17, there were 3 pillows for king size bed, I slept on 2 pillows my second night. Could have used an extra pillow on the bed. Wheel on desk chair is breaking, did not use the chair. Housekeeping does a good job, but if you look at the shower when sitting on the toilet, you can see mold or dirt under the lower 2 tray areas.

Sweet little motel that was comfortable and clean it would be perfect for families with children and pets

The motel was in disrepair due to age and lack of repair. It was musty smelling

Surprisingly nice for the price.

Room was basic but very clean with a small microwave and refrigerator. Nice yard for the dog to walk around. Very close to Great Barrington restaurants, shops, and lots of walking/ hiking trails.

Bedding was nice quality but didn't fit. Bottom sheet kept pulling off the corners. Coat hooks would have been helpful.
