Motel remis à neuf apparemment assez récemment. Le lobby est tres agréable avec poele à pelets. Petit dej avec savoureux petits gateaux Tres bon accueil. Heureusement que les voisins n'étaient pas bruyants, car feuilles à cigarettes Prix excessif par rapport à un motel

Les chambres sont bien décorées, très originales, au goût du jour. Bonne connexion internet, petit-déjeuner continental délicieux avec scones, yogourt grec et granola, oeufs durs, céréales...La réception est bien aménagée, conviviale, avec un foyer et des jeux de société pour se divertir. J'aimerais y retourner l'été pour profiter de l'extérieur (qui semble aussi très bien aménagé).

Not sure why our rating would be poor as the only issue the guest had why a declining Expedia payment. Expedia corrected the issue. Spoke with guests in the morning at breakfast and no room or stay issues were communicated. These guests travelled with their dog where Briarcliff is pet friendly with no pet fees.

This guest is not welcome back to our property, as they disturbed guests on other side of his room with loud voices and loud music. They also had a strong smell of cannabis in their room. We had to room move the guests next to his room and put the room off market for ozone cleaning. This is a very rare occasion for our peaceful property where guests are respectful to one another.

I was swayed by their claim to be associated with the Red Lion Inn(as a sister property) in Stockbridge and the photos. I had major problems and there was no employees on the property to assist with anything. Dresser was dirty, windows had spider webs and shades and curtains didn't work, front door handle works up not down. There might be other rooms that match their pictures , mine did not.

Mr. Kimm,This is the 3rd review we are responding to. We are hoping that you have received our two previous responses. We contacted Expedia on your behalf and you we not charged. We understand that you had issues with your room. We are sorry to hear that you had difficulty operating our lever door handles. The Innkeeper lives on property but was at the market during your brief time at Briarcliff.We were glad that your received assistance from our sister property the Red Lion Inn. Just to clarify, we are a vintage rehabbed charming roadside motel. The Red Lion Inn is an Iconic American Inn and completely different concepts. Our rooms are clean and simple, all shades in good working order. We appreciate feedback of any kind as we are always trying to improve our guest experience.

The Briarcliff Motel is a nice place to stay if you want to explore the Berkshires and Great Barrington. The room is cute but barebones. The property and innkeeper are very dog friendly which is always nice! I would recommend staying here if you want to don't want to spend a ton of money on a hotel in the Berkshire but still want a nice place to rest your head!

The lobby door is mostly open while we are cleaning rooms for arrivals. There is an informational sheet hanging in the room that let's guest know they can reserve the lobby. The lobby has several tables available for a workspace. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.

The property could use some upgrades. For the price it would have been nice to have a new toilet that wasn’t stained and yellowed, walls that weren’t damaged and upholstery that wasn’t stained. Also the curtains fell down when we tried to open them and the window lock was broken.

Hi Lori,Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We understand the rate is higher in the height of the summer season in the Berkshires, please know the market and location set the rate. We are a renovated vintage motel from the 1950's, located at the base of Monument Mountain on 4 acres of green space. We are always improving our guest experience and are grateful to the guests who let us know of their experience while they are staying with us. We were happy to welcome you, your husband and your dog for a no pet fee ever stay. Another aspect of savings when staying at Briarcliff. We are aware of our desk chair cover being permanently stained. It is an Ikea chair that has been discontinued. We assure you that it has been laundered many times. As for the toilet, we have well water that is high in minerals, that leave a mineral deposit on all of the bathroom equipment. Again,I can assure you that our cleaning process addresses this issue. Lastly, we were happy to assist you after you check out with helping you clean up your dog before you headed back home, He is a good boy!

Great dog friendly motel.
This is a great little motel. We only stayed 1 night but were so pleased @ how clean it was. Looks like they just redid the bathrooms and the bedding was bright and fresh. Room had a small refrigerator and microwave and an a/c unit. The grounds are well kept with fire pits out front and a big, grassy backyard for our dog to play ball! This place is so pet friendly which was why we booked it. Would definitely recommend it if staying in the area. Only 15-20 minutes to Tanglewood and 5 minutes to several good restaurants.

Upon arrival, we found no member of staff on site. After reading the information on the doors, we were informed that we should have received a text message regarding check in. Sadly being international and having an international number, we didn’t receive anything. We sent an email to the motel manager and also a Facebook message and sadly didn’t receive a reply. We visited the sister hotel, and they helped and provided us with the check in etc. Room was good. Very comfy. TV signal was not great ( but not an issue as extremely tired ). Fir internationals maybe need a different check in system?

Thank you for leaving us this review as my response will hopefully be helpful to other international travelers. We understand that not all international travelers will be able to use their phone for calling purposes while in the US. This being understood we ask that travelers please provide an email address in their reservation so that we may email their contactless check in information. We provide check in information on all 3rd party platforms and on our website. This information explains our contactless check in procedures. We either text or email check information to our guests. The Innkeeper lives onsite but does not have a 24-hour desk. We did not receive an email from you and do not check our social media for guest messages. We text, email and use our mobile phone to communicate with our guests. We are glad to hear that our sister property was able to assist you with your contactless check in information. Hopefully this information helps you and others.

Stanley, this is a bit of a naughty review, considering you shared no unhappiness when you joined us for breakfast with all our happy guests in the morning . We let you check in early as our check in is 3pm and you arrived early. And the MARKET dives the rate, of being able to stay ONE night in the Berkshires during the Summers a 2 night minimum. We never list that we are in the center of town which we THINK you meant in your review. We are tucked away on Monument Mountain on rt 7 in between Stockbridge and Great Barrington Proper with beautiful views. We are indeed old as this property is from 1950 and REHABBED in 2017...….thanks Stanley...we always take any kind of feedback in to consideration.
