The rooms are very very clean, along with very clean sheets and towels!! They have everything you need in them as well. They allowed me to check in at 6am for my stay verses having me check in at 6am and check out at 11am. It's up on a hill away from the traffic, so it's very quiet. You're not going to find any rif raf here at this motel from drug addicts and loud disrespectful people. You're gonna find Travelors, families, and people just rolling through for a good nights rest here. The refrigerators are really spacious as well!! The beds are super comfy for a good nights rest. Although the bathrooms for a single person are really small, there's still room in there to move around. Most of the items are up to date except for a couple of things that could be upgraded. Plus the heat works well and keeps the room nice and toasty. Everywhere has some cons: So I would recommend replacing the grip tape in the shower for protection of people like myself who are a fall risk. Also New England is starting to drop down at night but still gets hot during the day, so I would recommend fixing the window unit. I would recommend getting locked trash cans for outside, since we are in the woods and there are bears. Otherwise it's a really lovely homey space and I would definitely come back here!! I give it four and a half stars but you cant do half on yelp!

Actually, early Saturday morning since it was well past midnight. Very comfortable and cozy, though a bunch of noisy people right outside my window prevented me from sleeping in very long! But that's no fault of management, of course. My friend from college had some other guests at the home he shares with his wife a few minutes away, so there's $160 with tax I'll never see again. But the hotel in No. Adams I had stopped in at and inquired about rates an hour and a half earlier was out of control at $210 that night. Clerk at that hotel gave me another for another hotel in No. Adams, and it was even worse at $350. So Giovanni's was welcome find indeed, and the gentleman I awoke (occupational hazard, right?) was a paisan originally from Brooklyn, like all my late father's peeps! Fuhgeddaboudit! I had started by little five-day busman's holiday in Great Barrington in the Berkshires, and it turns out there are tons of ex-patriate Brooklynites who seem to have had enough of urban agita in NYC and sought refuge in rural Massachusetts. And I have to say I don't blame them a bit, though I will love New York until my last breath.

The breakfast that was included in it, though repetitive was fabulous and thoughtful. Bagels, cream cheese, lox, hard boiled eggs, yogurts, fresh juices, coffees and teas. We had 2 breakfasts and took the same things. Bagels, lox and cream cheese, OJ, coffee, eggs. There are a couple. of baked goods that were very disappointing. They should upgrade those definitely. The rooms were fine. We were automatically upgraded to a suite because we paid in advance and went mid-week. The bathroom was lovely, nothing to change. The hallways and rooms were a bit dated. Fresh paint, cool colors, but old. The room AC units were loud too. Was ok but wouldn't return. In the hallways there is great unusual art. Like what you would put into your own home which is cool and unusual. The colors they chose to decorate with were wonderful. But, for example, we had a painted old wooden floor with throw rugs. A bit uneven. Not something I'd ever put into our home. The grounds were very nice. It was nice weather when we were there, and we brought bathing suits but the pool was covered with leaves.

We brought a telescope along with us and I was able to show my kids a close up view of the moon and Jupiter through the clean and dry mountaintop air.
