Charming and fun
The inn is above the brew pub/pizzeria, which is an old ski lodge, which is pretty rustic and very charming. Great deck over the river where you can enjoy pizza and beer. Quiet (when no live music, which is mostly), easy to access. Stairs, basic plumbing, nice location.

It was an easy and pleasant stay. Perfect for the price if you are just looking for somewhere to lay your head. We didn't see another human our two days there but we got in late and left early. Most importantly it was clean.

Very nice, easy place to stay. Charming old New England feel, with a brewery pub and restaurant in house.

Horrible place to stay
The website indicates air conditioning. The thermostats did not work so no air conditioning. Other lighting was so bad I couldn’t see anything much but everything looked dingy and dirty. The bathroom sink was tiny and the second bathroom was across a public hall when it was represented as a two bathroom unit. It was so bad that we had to find another hotel to stay in. We did not stay in the room that was totally paid for. Complete waste of money.

The rooms are above the bar area so it can be loud if there is a band. We knew that and were prepared. Ear plugs are provided in the room in case you need them. The room was clean and met our needs. Very reasonable price. We had a nice stay.

Valley craft is a great time. Hotel is nice. Pizza and brewery downstairs is excellent. They do have bands occasionally which can be loud so be aware.

I knew this place as the Red Mill Inn. It's familiar, price was great, and it was quiet. I'll have to remember Monday nites are quiet

Very nice and cute. Really wish it was quieter though, the neighbor was so loud in the morning and woke us up at 7am. They did have a note that tells people that it’ll be loud, so that’s good at least!

VCA solo stay
The room was just as expected, basic, clean and comfortable for a solo stay. The noise level SAT night was quite loud due to the band performing downstairs. A TV in the room would be great for relaxing during down times. WiFi was good and bathroom was exceptionally clean and even had toiletries. Only thing lacking was a spare roll of bath tissue.
