Disliked: Staff & service

Feels a bit too self-serve

This place is kinda nice... design is nice. Room is comfy. But it strikes me as a a bit overpriced considering no one is ever on site. No front desk, no cleaning staff. If you need something, you need to drive to the Red Lion Inn about 10 minutes away. Also, sounds travel in this hotel. This usually dies down around 11... but until then, you hear everything next door.

Little Lion Inn provides very basic services in very clean facilities with a welcome atmosphere at the Red Lion Inn. a few miles up the road. There is nothing very remarkable about the property — but the Berkshires provide plenty of opportunities for beauty, well designed gardens, places to walk and relax.

There are better choices elsewhere

What a dump. Old, worn down and noisy rooms. Dirty floors and cobwebs from the bathroom ceilings. No coffee on site unless you bring your own machine (like we did). Room smelled funky and musty. Why the group that has the Red Lion and Porches would want this property in their portfolio is beyond my understanding. I'd never stay at either one now.

Q

This is a charming older motel that is quiet with spacious grounds. There was no check in- they just gave me my room number and my code. I personally loved that. It was during a terrible heat wave and the small AC window unit struggled to cool the room, but eventually did. There didn’t seem to be coffee anywhere on the grounds so I would have loved a coffeemaker in my room.

The property did not communicate with me about the unit and entry code until 1:30 pm for a 3 pm check-in. The property was similar to a 1970's Motel 6 which may be the "norm" for this area. While adequate, it was far from impressive or even "reflective of the cost."

The room was very cozy and clean. The area was pretty and quiet and only 2 minutes down the road from downtown. The owner Rhonda was very nice she goes out of her way to meet your needs. She asked me what I like to eat for breakfast, I told her, "scrambled eggs," so she personally cooked me scrambled eggs the next morning.
