The room itself was very nice. But, the room had an emergency exit door that was located right next to the bed area and the street noise from that door was awful. It sounded like we were on the street. Breakfast was delicious and staff were great. Would be a 5 if not for the street noise.

This is a B&B place and we were in the house portion. We knew it was twin beds coming in but the mattresses were a bit bouncy. GREAT property!!!

excellent stay at the Black Walnut Inn

Lovely historic inn! Very well appointed and spacious room, comfortable common area, attentive hosts, great breakfast (including eggs from the inn's beautiful chickens, and homemade bread), mattress was quite firm (whether it is too firm is just a matter of taste). One suggestion: have pullout sofas in the larger rooms and suites that include sofas -- our son was a little too tall for the non-pullout sofa. He still found a way to sleep on it comfortably, but others may not. Other than that, an excellent stay!

I wish I had known about this place earlier as my daughter has graduated from University of Massachusetts and is moving away from Amherst, but I highly recommend the black walnut Inn if you’re in Amherst for any reason!!

We were in town for a lacrosse tournament and found this gem on hotels.com. It was a great spot, perfect location, and loved the vibe of a farmhouse turned into an Inn. Hot breakfast made to order was fantastic. Room was spotless and spacious. Bathroom was immaculate as well.
