"I got the impression that Yankee Inn has quite a history, although it has been recently updated and renovated. The staff were available and friendly. At times I felt I was on a 1950s movie set, imagining Bing Crosby singing in my head. I ultimately extended my stay because it's location was a hub for the many surrounding activities--it's slightly over an hour drive to Hartford, and I was happy to leave the hustle and bustle of the city and return to the beauty of the Berkshires. I was surrounded by nature, but a grocery store, pharmacy, laundromat, and stores were also a short distance down the road. An extensive daily breakfast selection surpassed any I've recently had, and I've done my fair share of traveling."
