It’s unique historical property. The front desk allowed us to check in three hours early due to it’s a snowy day. We had a lovely thanksgiving dinner in the restaurant belongs to the hotel.

Everything was clean and worked well. After a not-so-good visit last year this was a total reversal in all areas of quality. We also ate at the restaurant which was very good.

The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The lodging was quite charming and in a beautiful setting. Great place to stay if hiking or skiing in the area or just visiting Williamstown and North Adams. The room was comfortable and quiet. The TV audio didn't work properly and there were a couple of lightbulbs out, but we didn't trouble the staff who I am sure would have been immediately helpful. We would definitely stay here again!

The sound proofing is terrible. The handle fell off of the storm door. The shower head is not angled correctly and water spewed out of the shower when we turned it on. The room was clean and otherwise fine.

Good location , near williamstown but very overpriced for what you get. Bed was comfortable.
but…
My room was missing lightbulbs in several of the lamps.
My room had outlets that didn’t work
Several rooms had no water so they had emergency maintenance going on for long hours making a lot of noise
Was severely overpriced due to fall foliage

After checking into the room, we noticed the room was very cold at about 60 degrees. The thermometer was not working and we informed the office. Got a different room and had to move all the stuff to the new room. Then the hot tub was not working and the tv was not working. Driving into the hotel’s parking lot was very difficult where the pavement was filled with holes and very uneven. Although the staff at the front desk were polite, the overall condition at this place is extremely poor. Will not return.

It was very nice, we had a large room, porch with chairs to set out side, it was more than we expected. Only knock i can give them is, they said there was wifi they gave us a password but the signal was so weak that it only connected for a couple of minutes then it was gone. Went to the office, they said thy would look into it. It never worked during our stay. I would definitely stay again, but if you cant live with out wifi ,this might not be your spot.

Stayed on the pond side. The pool looks like it hasn’t been used in years! The beds were very hard and we didn’t receive enough towels for the amount of guests we had but everything else was fine. It was clean, safe and in a nice area.

1896 is a rather charming motel. It is situated just outside of Williamstown with quick access to the roads that lead to Albany and Pittsfield. We arrived late and our keys were waiting for us in an envelop. The room had a pleasant mix of wood, carpeting, lace and tile that felt homely in a thoughtful way.
