I enjoyed my stay at the Berkshire Motel. The motel is always clean and well maintained. I would like to suggest an extra blanket be available in the room for use at night. A safety grab bar in the shower would be useful to prevent any falls while showering. Thank you.

I was very happy with this choice. We had a 1 night stay and this was an affordable option that was better than my expectations. Possibly cleanest motel or inexpensive hotel I’ve ever stayed in. The people were nice, the decor was nice, and it had great water pressure in the shower, by the way. I would choose it again.

I arrived late. I think I woke the manager up. The remote was not in sync with the TV so I had to call for help. Parking can be a problem as there are only 4 spaces and the manager uses one.

I asked for a quiet room and they put me in a room that was very quiet and comfortable, so I was very pleased about that. It wasn’t far from the naval hospital. Dennys was right across the street. McDonald’s was a block away. The room was nice. The price was perfect.

Upon check-in we were put in a room that was already occupied. Room was clean and seemed to be updated recently. Neighborhood was a bit suspicious. A solid 2.5 stars.
