When checked in room there was hair in shower and sink area.
I want my money back. The place was dismal with bugs, mildewed shower curtin, 2 mini lights for illumination and beat up furniture. We didn't stay and left as my wife and daughter found the room awlful. Please refund my money

Convenient
Convenient and relatively low price. You get what you pay for
I was looking for an inexpensive place to stay before going to Skip Barber racing school at lime rock. I was super disappointed to find dog and human hair all over the bedding, pillows , sheets , sink and shower. Not sure I would recommend it to others.
It's a simple, no frills whatsoever, motel in a tiny town. Cute cafe nearby and lots of hiking trails. It's run by a family and they do a good job of keeping it clean and tidy. We had no issues at all. The shower is clean and has hot water. The room has a fridge. The beds are good enough and the linens all smelled fresh. The AC works. No stale smells. The only downside is the price. For the life of me, I had never come across a motel that wanted to charge $250/night for 2 beds. Even after booking through Expedia, when I called to confirm, the owner tried to tell me he can determine or change the price. I didn't understand what that was about because when I got there, he just charged me and didn't argue. I paid a little over $200, which is still way too much but it's a supply and a demand situation
It’s a dump
Drive up motel
No one avail to check people in
I had to pay twice, our room was prepaid yet we couldn’t get a room until we paid again.
The room was at least clean but not frills…bathroom was so small you couldn’t even change your mind in there! It’s just “ICK”.

For a low budget hotel, it was everything I could ask for
Clean room, comfortable bed Wi-Fi very good service
It’s not the four seasons, and I didn’t expect it to be
It's great for just sleeping only. It was a single bed which was big for 2 and a single chair. Private Bathroom, shower, sink, tv, ac, cable, fridge, microwave, side table, office table.
Stayed her while attending races at Lime Rock Park with friend. Great stay foot the cost and will stay again!

This motel was exactly what you would expect from an older motel off a highway. It was clean and the grounds were very nice. The furniture was dated. The hot water was great! The sink area was okay. Microwave, television, and refrigerator were very handy. Nearby high end bakery and light fare.
Needs a vending machine for water, soda, and snacks. Ice would have been good to have as well-maybe a central vending area could be created.
Carpets not vaccumm, fridge I two rooms were moldy. Had to clean. Beds are hard as a rock. Rooms smell musty.

I was a little disappointed to find out that they gave my king reservation away. My husband and I were there for our anniversary, and we had a two (small) bed room instead of one queen.
The other reviews aren't fair or true. This place is within minutes of the Appalachian Trail. If you want a basic room for a day hiking weekend, this is a good choice.
