We may have arrived at a bad time. Upon entering the room, we found grass and dirt on the floor, and during our stay, there were bugs inside. Additionally, one of the curtains is broken and cannot be fully closed. Due to the holiday, no maintenance could be done. The door code did not work, so we had to contact staff to get in. The mobile signal is weak in that area, and unfortunately, the regional internet was also down on the day we arrived. However, the staff did respond fairly quickly over the phone.

I used to stay in it when it was the holiday house which was a purely 50s motel. it’s been bought and refurbished and renamed the brooks. The rooms are still not very big but the beds are comfortable and I don’t spend a lot of time at the hotel when I’m in Hillsdale. there was a coffee maker that made delicious coffee and there is room for my small dog and his crate. The water pressure was good too, so I would say this place handles the basics well and is very centrally located especially for me. The other thing I would add is that there is no on-site staff so I handled everything via text, but whoever was answering the text was incredibly responsive and helpful. Just something to know I would recommend the brooks.

The motel is at a hreat location...only 2min away from Catamount mountain. The room was clean and pretty basic but thats what we needed. Only downside was the walls are very thin so if you have loud guests with kids u will hear everything. Check-in was seamless with no issues.

Nice place to stay.

The property felt safe and welcoming. The room was comfortable and had everything I wanted or needed. The styles “spare” and I like that.

There is nobody on-site for assistance. The remodeled rooms are like putting lipstick on a pig. Cold concrete floors, exposed partical board for headboard and furniture. Had to ask for wash clothes. Definitely not worth the money for a 2 night stay.
