Liked: Cleanliness, check-in
Disliked: Communication
Separate entrance in home. Very clean room. It was a last minute trip and was grateful for the accommodation.
Very comfortable, soft bed, cute decor and very convenient location for Great Barrington and surrounding area. Owners are kind, ready to help whenever you need something. Overall this is a great place to stay and we highly recommend it to anyone spending some time in the area.
We had a very great time in Great Barrington and hope to be back. Andrew and Susanne could not have been more gracious. They were very helpful from beginning to end and even after. We thought we might have left our dog's leash behind and we did. They checked confirmed and we had and we picked up on our way back thru town.
