What guests think

Across recent reviews, The Putney Inn is described as a simple, budget-friendly stop just off I‑91, with generally clean, spacious rooms, friendly staff, ample parking, and quiet surroundings, though the property feels older and plain.

Common drawbacks include musty odors, occasional mold or pests, worn furnishings, and thin walls or outside light affecting sleep. Breakfast is a basic continental setup—often with waffles—but selection and seating are limited, and there is no onsite restaurant. Location is convenient for Landmark College, Brattleboro, and ski trips, though dining options nearby can be sparse and a passing train is sometimes audible. Expect a no-frills, affordable stay focused on convenience over polish.

Easy access from I91. Very nice staff, reasonable pet friendly fee, and spotlessly clean. The rooms are basic, updated, clean and the beds are comfortable. Plenty of room to walk the dog. Note to dog owners, fewer hotels are pet friendly now, please treat the ones that are with respect, and pick up after them - don’t ask me why I mention this!!!!

Staff was welcoming and very professional. The breakfast was ample, fresh, easy with variety, and I love those fresh waffles. My room was very large with lots of towels and toiletries and an iron and ironing board. Natural beam ceilings. Very tidy and clean and the parking was very well lit and safe feeling. My one concern in room 202 was that the plumbing in the bathtub did not flow out well when I ran the shower, but that's an easy thing to fix and I bet that the conscientious staff will immediately see to that with this report. It was a great stay, so easy off the highway, pleasant even though I arrived around midnight, and I'd return. While I was unable to stay in town long, I learned from a fellow guest that there is good recreation in the area. I think the owners take a lot of pride in the property, treating me with formality and friendliness, and that was lovely!

Like others have said, don't judge the inside by the outside. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. I loved that my room had a functional bathroom window! Breakfast included waffles, oatmeal, cereal, toast, pb, yogurt, etc. Coffee was so-so. There is also in-room coffee, with fridge and microwave. There might not be a pool but there is a small playground for little ones. Pet rooms do not have king beds.

We've stayed at the Putney Inn multiple times, because it is clean, quiet and right off the main roads. The rooms are large and well laid out, so we have room to spread out. The property is dog-friendly and the entrance area is large enough to place her dog bed and food bowl. There is also a large,secluded area in back to walk her. The owners are nice and eager to make your stay enjoyable. We will definitely stay there again.

The website showed it as an inn, not an old Motel. The room smelled musty when we went into it and when we opened the sliding glass door to let in some air, there was black mold along the rim that the glass door rode on.

Beware! One of the beds in our room was crawling with ants, near the foot of the bed. We had arrived late at night and gone to bed immediately, and only discovered the ants after my wife had felt itchy and unable to sleep. After a fitful night, we reported the ants to the front desk first thing in the morning, and the clerk told us 1) any complaint would have to be filed with Hotels.com, and the motel couldn’t help us directly, and 2) the expected refund would only be 25% of the nightly charge. There MUST be better options than this in the region!

Towels were stained with rust or other.

Rooms

Rooms are spacious and basic with comfortable beds, but decor and fixtures feel dated; lighting can be dim, some noise carries through thin walls, and exterior lights or uncovered windows may let in light. In-room fridge, microwave, and coffee maker are common, and Wi-Fi can be spotty.

I have stayed at the Inn multiple times and was very pleased. This visit, our room was not as nice as usual. There was a strong musty smell upon entering that eventually subsided after we opened the windows. The bedding was mismatched, the rug was frayed, and the lighting was poor. It just didn't present a welcoming atmosphere, nor was it the kind of room I was accustomed to staying in while at the Inn. Still a good stay, but the room could use some attention.

Convenient stopover on our road trip. Large rooms and comfy beds. Great location just off the highway, yet quiet. Rooms were a little dated (decor), but good enough for a 1 night stay. Limited restaurant options nearby as we stayed on a Weds night (some places closed mid week). Overall good value for money.

This is the most basic of accommodations. The breakfast bar is a sad state of mealy apples, bagels, and cereals. Thin walls/noisy neighbors/and no drinking water offered. The room was clean but very rough and in dire need of updating; it also smelled musty. This is basically the Rosebud Motel from Schitt’s Creek but no David or Moira to entertain.

The Putney Inn is very comfortable and friendly. Love that there is a mini-fridge and a microwave in the room. Also the coffee maker is handyeven though there was excellent coffee in the office every morning. The room needs some updating. The carpet was frayed by the door. The bathtub was a bit stained. Also the design choices were sad. There are two prints in the room with exactly the same scene. It would be nice to have some lighter brighter colors for the bed, curtains, and carpet. Overall, the room was nice, clean, and comfortable. Would recommend to anyone staying in Putney

This Inn does not get 5 stars from me because the shower is not great (mediocre water pressure) and the Wi-Fi was spotty too often. It's a very good choice for the price, in an area without a ton of options, and I would definitely return.

The noise proof is very poor. We can hear next door conversation clearly till they stopped at late hour like 1:30pm. Even there were 2 doors (one connected to the other room), but noise was quite obvious. The second door cannot be closed fully, as if it’s built by a amateur contractor. It’s like a plywood put on a wall instead of a regular door. The front desk was rude during I checked in. Asked for my ID without saying please, and no smile.

This property is a mixed bag. The room is spacious and appears clean. However, there is a funky smell from the carpet. Bed is comfortable but the linens are old. What really put me off was the check-in. The counterperson was curt and rude. Cut me off midsentence when iwas giving him my name. Asked me if I had a pet. I said no. He said, "Because this room is NOT A PET FRIENDLY room." What the heck?

This is a very basic motel. Don't let the name 'Inn' fool you. The beds were comfortable and the place was clean. The overall feel is very dated. The heat/ac in the room is noisy and it is very close to the highway and its noise. Also the rooms have a small window in the front by the door that doesn't have a curtain so it is impossible to get the room fully dark. The breakfast is very very basic.

My room was in deteriorating condition. Carpeting is old. Radiator in bathroom is falling apart; while not needed as they have an a/c unit in the wall, it should be removed as it is unsightly. Dirty baseboards which need to be painted. "Breakfast" was a joke, just a waffle maker, some low quality bread and coffee that ran out after I filled a small cup. The lack of attention to detail was appalling. Outdoor planter bed next to my unit was all dead grass. I don't know why this property gets such good reviews.
