6/10 Okay

Near hiking for Mt. Greylock and the Appalachian Trail. Nice walking area close by at Lamb's Hill. Clean Older mattress, was OK, but could feel springs a little. If you like a tub, it is tiny. The shower is OK
Margaret, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

A pool was listed when we got there they informed us when asked that the pool was undergoing maintenance in the middle of the summer this is not the time for pool maintenance.
Theodore, 3-night trip

4/10 Poor

Very dirty and old. Did not tell me my suite was not available until they tried to give me a small old room. Would never go back.
Robert, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

I checked in after hours. Key with instructions left at the front, easy to find. Room was clean and cold from the AC (thank you!).! Room smelled a bit like a motel, but nothing crazy. Bed was firm, but I slept ok.!!
Amanda, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Light in bathroom doesn’t work. Front desk doesn’t respond to a call.
Ellen, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We arrived after 7 pm and it turned out had reserved the room for Wednesday night instead of Monday night. A person associated with the restaurant which was closed on Monday, helped us. He called in to the staff and checked us into a room. Everything went so smoothly and it could have been last minute looking for a different motel.
Amy, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Lovely inn and great restaurant!

The room was pleasant and the grounds were nice. Nothing in disrepair. The ‘6 Restaurant was wonderful-our waitress was fabulous, decor was lovely and the prices were quite reasonable. A definite “thumbs up” and sure to return.

It’s unique historical property. The front desk allowed us to check in three hours early due to it’s a snowy day. We had a lovely thanksgiving dinner in the restaurant belongs to the hotel.

Emily, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Everything was clean and worked well. After a not-so-good visit last year this was a total reversal in all areas of quality. We also ate at the restaurant which was very good.
Stephen, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

This motel was a classic old time roadside New England accommodation in the Berkshires. It is actually in three different locations spread out over a quarter of a mile on both sides of the road and I suspect one's experience will vary dramatically based on which location and room you actually end up in. Overall the place seems to have overwhelmed the owners in terms of maintenance services. It definitely does not match the confusing and somewhat misleading descriptions on their website or the booking sites. It is very basic with few amenities and unevenly maintained. The TV in our room had obviously not been hooked up to work in a long time. The owners/ staff are impossible to contact and subsequent looking at the reviews of this property show that that is an ongoing problem. I drove down to the other location where the office was located and although the owners were in their apartment, they would not come to the door (apparently everything is done by notes and there is a weathered permanent piece of paper on the door saying they will "be back shortly"). The place has some potential in a beautiful location and was inexpensive but I wonder how long Covid will be an excuse for lack of maintenance, etc.?

Leo, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

Good location , near williamstown but very overpriced for what you get. Bed was comfortable. but… My room was missing lightbulbs in several of the lamps. My room had outlets that didn’t work Several rooms had no water so they had emergency maintenance going on for long hours making a lot of noise Was severely overpriced due to fall foliage
Mary, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Accommodations were fine it was just not kept up well enough. Reception was friendly, the food at the inn was fine.
