We stayed here when we were passing through on a spur-of-the-moment trip. Furnishings were old and outdated, the carpet and linens were worn, and the room smelled musty and damp. It was summer, so we thought we'd open the windows to get rid of the smell but there were no screens and we were close to a wooded area. The... more

Although the rooms are fairly large, it would seem that the rooms haven't been updated since the construction of this motel (in the 60's/70's). The chairs in my room had odd staining all over the cloth (and actually look like they were rescued from the trash). The carpet looked nasty and out-dated. I don't think they had been cleaned in... more

I stayed here about a year and a half ago when every other hotel/motel in town was booked. It was Parents/Alumni weekend at Bennington College and the height of leaf-peeper season. I have to say this is one of the sketchiest places I've ever stayed. They put me in this room that was removed from the rest of the motel... more

The walls are very thin, we stayed next to the innkeeper, and when their phone rang, we thought it was in our room. We booked the room for 2 nights. We checked out after one night, as our plans changed. Most proprietors would refund the second night, since we did not use the room. Since I signed it, the credit... more

This is an expensive area to stay and we were looking for an affordable place to sleep for one night while passing through town. The room was $72 for the night. Very friendly staff and our late arrival was no problem. Clean room but worn carpet and furnishings. Uncomfortable bed and I was hesitant to walk barefoot on the carpet.... more

The rooms are set back from the highway on a well kept plot of land. This location is great in the late spring and summer with all of the fine shrubbery and tall trees. Reasonable price for a fine room and comfortable beds, with fine people running the place.We can not wait to come back and continue or tour of... more
