Leave the TV clicker in the breakfast area.
The staff is very friendly and remembered me because I’ve been there several times. They go out of their way to be helpful and remember frequent guests. The only thing they might have to do differently is leave the television quicker in the breakfast area available for patrons to use to change channels. Apparently somebody who works there thinks that MSNBC (MSLSD ) is the kind of propaganda guests should have to stomach while they’re having breakfast. That employee, whoever she or he is, hid the clicker! It’s almost enough to make me vomit when I have to listen to those excuses for journalists lie the way they do. I certainly don’t want to listen to them at breakfast. Everybody has their own preferences about news and which of the multiple points of view expressed by the news organizations they want to watch or listen to. I suppose you could say the same thing when it happens the other way as it did when I was staying at a Marriott property recently in Tennessee. All the monitors were tuned to FOX NEWS, which of course I don’t have a problem with, but then again, they don’t like it. They can complain the Marriott just like I’m complaining about it here. Those breakfast facilities are in a much larger venue and you don’t have to watch the screenings if you don’t want to because they’re not right in your face. It’s pretty much impossible small motel not watch or listen to this, especially when the monitor is mounted up near the ceiling.

Dear Mr. Scholz,Thank you for returning to Best Western Plus Berkshire Hills Inn & Suites. For the very reason you described, we instruct the staff to leave the TV's on weather or sports. However, if a guest requests, we will change the channel per the request.I hope you will consider returning and let us know if the channel is not showing a program you wish to watch.Sincerely,

Great place to stay in Pittsfield to see the Berks
The location is right near one of the Berkshire’s most famous historical attractions, Hancock, Shaker Village. It is about 2 miles outside of downtown Pittsfield, which makes it a more attractive location for people who don’t wanna deal with downtown traffic and yet it’s quite accessible to downtown attractions for people who are looking for that. The staff was very friendly and accommodating and they have coffee available for anyone who wants to use the machine in the lobby to make flavored coffee at any hour of the day or night it seems. Breakfast selection did have a meat item as well as potatoes, and a variety of yogurts And cereals as well as baked goods. There seem to be parking both in front and back of the property and the location was very quiet. The one thing that’s possible and structural is that the wall between the individual units might not have the latest sound dampening because I could hear someone’s story And that’s all the odd thing that I noted but not enough to take away from my overall rating. Excellent.

Clean and friendly hotel stay
Great stay at this hotel with my pup. Hotel was very clean, and there was ample room around the parking lot to walk my dog. Front desk and breakfast staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast had a small but good variety of foods which were more than ample before a long day of hiking. And there was 24 hour coffee & hot water service, as well as microwave and fridge, which are always appreciated when I'm on a multi-day trip. Comfortable bed as well.

The location was convenient; felt safe and comfortable. Parking lot was a bit snug in front of the property, but very much appreciated being able to pull car up to unload/load during inclement weather conditions. Staff was very friendly and courteous. The only thing we would have like was the fried eggs of the breakfast buffet to have been hitter; and maybe offer one or two gluten free options in the individual bread or pastries. Fresh fruit and “fix your own” oatmeal was a big hit! And the choices in your 24 hour coffee bar were very nice.

Clean and dog friendly
Pleasant experience - room was comfortable and relatively quiet. Check in staff was very friendly and helpful. Guests in the room upstairs from us were up all night long walking around so that was a downer - need more sound insulation. Loved that the hotel was dog-friendly and the fee was much more reasonable than some hotels. And there were some grassy areas to walk around in outside. We appreciated the coffee and hot water for tea but did not take advantage of the breakfast.
