Great place to stay if your not in need of a kitchen. Very clean and updated. Staff easy to work with and hard to beat the price. Close to really great dining in Great Barrington. Close to the area attractions.
I had a great stay. Please read the most recent reviews as it was completely renovated and maybe under a new owner and/or management. 1) King sized bed - very comfortable with 4 large pillows and a cute decorative Berkshires pillow; the linens were very soft and the blankets were very warm 2) 58" TV - Hulu was logged in with live channels available; very nice 3) Bathroom with modern, high end fixtures and ample lighting - shower pressure and temperature had no issues; towels were extremely soft and there were more than enough towels 4) Fridge with two water bottles and Smeg coffee maker - I had the water, but don't drink coffee so didn't use it, but perhaps some tea bags might be nice 5) Plenty of room to store clothes, hang coats, shirts, etc. 6) Nice little corner reading nook with a lamp and side table for a mug 7) Nice desk with a chair and hi speed wifi 8) dual purpose AC/heater with thermostat 9) white noise machine 10) USB outlets 11) Cute little backyard porch space with 2 chairs 12) Check in and check out was breeze and I had no safety concerns
Do not base it off of the pics. This place was completely renovated. Had I known that I would have taken pictures. Very clean and cozy. Great location. For it being on a busy street, it was still pretty quiet. Great size walk in shower. Very warm inside. It was low 30's outside and the thermostat said 65 inside and I was still comfortable walking around in shorts and T-shirt. It also has the cutest red coffee maker. The mini fridge kept everything I've cold.
Off US-183, this modest motel is 3 miles from both Monument Mountain Reservation with hiking trails and picnic spots, and Ski Butternut with 11 lifts and artificial snow makers on all trails.
