If I was comparing this motel to the Ramada or Crowne Plaza, I would not rate it as highly. However, I stayed on a weekend during the Tanglewood season and saved $100 a night, for a place to sleep! The bed was comfy, the AC worked great on 2 very hot nights, the water pressure was fantastic, the tv had... More

We were looking for a place to stay overnight - it was getting late. So we called them directly - still had available rooms. Original quote was good anyway, but got a discount upon arrival. Super-nice owner, helpful - even brought us a microwave to heat up kids' stuff. Great value for the money - definitely recommended :) More

This past weekend myself and three other families went to the berkshires for a horseshow. The minor issues were that the place smelled musty, the beds were rock hard and I found a condom box in the bedside drawer with three children sitting there. The major issues were the fire hazards that developed for one of my friends. I am... More

Have stayed three times over the past three years, visiting my son at camp. I think it has changed ownership in the past year. While nothing terribly wrong, nothing terribly right either, so like I say, it's fine for an overnight, but not for an extended vacation. I felt corners were cut; no alarm clocks, for example. Decor, and bathroom... More

The first night was ok, room was clean but small. Second night we blew a fuse while blow drying our hair and the owner said he could not get someone to fix it and told us he would give us a flashlight to use. When we got back, he had left 2 lit candles in the room, unattended and ran... More

My family came for Easter Weekend with my wife's folks, so we just wanted an affordable and comfortable bed nearby. We found a pleasant vintage motel (loved the Lucy and Ricky reference from an earlier reviewer), a very friendly and easy-going owner, clean and well maintained rooms, and firm, comfortable mattresses. We took two rooms and the owner discounted our... More

stayed 1 night while travelling round Massachusetts, as a result of previous reviews. The motel is a little dated in decor and may not be to some tastes, however this is compensated for by its convenience for touring the Berkshires and by the cleanliness which was impeccable. This appears a small family run concern and we were given a warm... More

When I read the review about Lucy and Desi, I wasn't sure what they meant. I understood the moment we walked in - you'll find this charming little motel right out of the 50's. Very clean, very appealing with carpet that looked new, a microwave and refrigerator, screens in the windows and air conditioning. You'll fall in love in a... More
