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.

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.

Had booked a brookside room but when checked in I was put in a beautiful barnside room with fireplace, big bathroom etc come to find out that all the brookside rooms were closed due to code violations! our room was beautiful (barn side) but we had no control of the heat which was only thru a wall fireplace and space heater - dangerous! Outlets had extension cords and lights near a canopy bed that screamed fire hazard, water was iffy and pressure came on and off. Toilet didn’t always flush. Jacuzzi tub didn’t work. No one in office for entire stay other than check in so we had 2 towels and 1 roll of toilet paper for 2 nights /3 days! I have stayed here before and found the property cute and charming and dog friendly but I will be looking for a new place to stay when visiting the area going forward.

My room was clean and cozy, the gas fireplace and the wide bath tub made it stand out from a regular motel room.

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

It was very nice, we had a large room, porch with chairs to set out side, it was more than we expected. Only knock i can give them is, they said there was wifi they gave us a password but the signal was so weak that it only connected for a couple of minutes then it was gone. Went to the office, they said thy would look into it. It never worked during our stay. I would definitely stay again, but if you cant live with out wifi ,this might not be your spot.

We stayed in the Cottage Queen room. Everything was clean and well appointed, but the room was very dark and the mattress very uncomfortable. Otherwise no complaints. Service was excellent.

This hotel served its purpose of a bed and bathroom but the photos are misleading and need to be updated.

Stayed on the pond side. The pool looks like it hasn’t been used in years! The beds were very hard and we didn’t receive enough towels for the amount of guests we had but everything else was fine. It was clean, safe and in a nice area.

The pools out of service and it’s a motel. Like with 2 beds. Not a bed and breakfast. Breakfast is not available for a fee! Just a regular clean motel.

I absolutely love the 1896 House! There was a little mixup at check in and Josh promptly fixed it for me. The room was clean and cozy - exactly what I was looking for! We ate lunch at The ‘6 House Pub - terrific food and service! The grounds are quaint and well kept. If you’re looking to stay at a place with character and comfort, I highly recommend! I will definitely be back. Thank you!
