<p>I am planning a marathon college tour at the end of the month and looking for a place to stay between Ithaca and Boston. Any recommendations?</p>
<p>Are you perhaps looking at any colleges on the way between the two? Williamstown is lovely whether you’re looking at Williams or not.</p>
<p>Depending on your route, there are also Skidmore, Amherst, Clark University, and other schools. Williamstown is lovely, but if you’re looking for easy access off I-90, I remember it taking less time to get to Amherst. If you’ve got a D, then you could also check out Smith and Mt. Holyoke.</p>
<p>I prefer to stay the night before a visit in the actual town where the college is, if possible. It’s nice to have that time the night before to look at the town and to be able to easily get to the college in the morning.</p>
<p>agree with kathiep!</p>
