We stayed for 2 nights and had a really pleasant stay. We booked a king sized bed with jacuzzi and were very pleasantly surprised by the size of the room and the little 'extras' including free WiFi. Upon arrival we were given a warm welcome and lots of suggestions of local places to go. Although alongside a fairly busy road,... more

This motel is a good value. Great brookside location. Rustic, paneled room was very clean. Small television on stand and adequate toiletries and towels. Enjoyed meal at pub as well as the complimentary breakfast. Friendly and efficient service in pub as well as at the motel. Unfortunately the mattress was very firm. Because of this I was able to sleep... more

This motel was recommended by a friend and we could not be happier with the recommendation! The room was so clean and roomy enough for the two of us. The king size bed and the large whirlpool bathtub were perfect. We enjoyed the free breakfast each morning...waffles, bagels, juices and coffee were just enough to start our day. We had... more

Two significant problems attach to a stay at the 1896 House. Rooms on Pondside can be damp, smelly and unpleasantly musty. It seems the management are aware of this and on our complaint transferred us to a room in which the heating appeared permanently on - this helped but the rooms are not great. If planning on a stay you... more

I was expecting more from the reviews. the motel which it is is on the main road. Our room on Pondside had an overwhelming smell of chlorine and chemicals. Changed to a second room which looked a bit tired. The tavern was great fun, but breakfast was very ordinary. The welcome was very businesslike. Maybe it is the best available... more

We stayed in the Bed and Breakfast Luxury suites-the rooms couldn't have been any better-just beautiful with all the little extra's, very clean, breakfast was great and cook was very friendly. We also went to the Pub that is on this property-very good food and so convenient. more

At first glance, it was not exactly what we had in mind. We were looking for more of a bed & breakfast, and this is really a motel. However, since we made our plans at the last minute during the high season and were therefore limited in places to choose from, we went ahead and booked it. We stayed in... more

This is what most tourists would hope a New England Bed and Breakfast would be like. The rooms are not huge but very comfortable and VERY clean. Ours was located in the Brookside building. The grounds are not overly lansdscaped or lighted or decorated. Very low- key , almost like a private residence that the owners are very proud of,... more

We were travelling through New England on our annual holiday. The 1896 was one of our pre booked stops. We had not realised that it was not actually in Williamstown but on the main road going out of the town and near nothing!! Thank goodness it had a restaurant and the food at least for dinner was OK, We had... more
