Very clean. But when I went to check in the office door was locked and she wouldn’t answer the door bell. Had to call her to open the door even though she was right in the other room.

The room was small and smelled of cigarette smoke. The tv was broken. It was supposed to be a king size bed but was two full size instead. One bed had sheets with fresh blood stains on them. The overall condition of the room was best described as dingy and old. The photo offered on the website does not reveal the real condition of this place. I will not be going back. And it was over-priced on top of that! This place was probably nicer about 50 years ago when it was built.

Comfortable room and was very clean. Property was quiet and felt safe. All extended stay amenities provided. Only complaint was the lack of working outlets. Otherwise extremely satisfied for the cost of the room.

Nothing fancy but clean and comfortable. Coffee pot didn't work but reception offered to replace it as soon as we reported it. Very handy location for Tanglewood, Edith Wharton's "Mount", and Mount Greylock.

Surprisingly pleasant for an inexpensive (mid-wk) motel: large room with micro and fridge; places to sit outside (a glider! a fire pit!); convenient for what I wanted (except for ice cream . . ). Go eat at Mad BBQ up the road (closed SunMonTues).

Please refund me for this transaction. This property sold the room that I paid for with two double beds to another party. I am not going to take the time to call Expedia on this. Please confirm that a refund is issued.

A Good Night's Rest at a Reasonable Price

I had a problem finding the office, as I arrived about 9:30pm. It's actually next door, built into the owner's house. Check in was quick and easy, though I had near miss on my way out: The steps and the sidewalk in front of them are on an incline. I lost my balance on the top step and didn't regain it until I got to the driveway. After that, I was more careful. The room was gorgeous, spotlessly clean....and COLD. I tried calling the office several times, but no one picked up, as the owner was somewhere in the house where he couldn't hear the office phone. So I went back to the office and rang the doorbell. I was given instructions and told that if I couldn't get it to work, come back to the office and he'd send "....one of his guys over." Not long afterward, there was a knock on the door; the "guy" came without my asking for him. The room was toasty warm in about 15 minutes. On the whole, I was very happy with my stay.

Quality hotel if your on a budget

One of the best hotels I’ve stay at. They do need to expand their WiFi a bit to cover all the rooms, but overall an excellent hotel
