Nice receptionist who was very accommodating when I asked for a room with a view. Was more surprised than concerned about the open stairwell to the back dumpster. Seemed a bit eerie. I was expecting the stairwell to be inside the building and not open to the outside. We did have to wait to get the room after I booked online. Good internet and TV. I wasn’t a fan of the toilet flusher and no cover to the bowl. The walk in shower was nice and everything seemed clean, but I didn’t love the black bed spreads. Heard about possible danishes in the morning, but I must have misused them because I slept in. I was excited to grab a banana though. Thank you! I’m not a coffee drinker, but I’m sure there was tea too, just didn’t have time to look. Thank you. I think I would definitely stay there again.

Pretty clean room. Room is pretty dated, bed was comfortable. A/C was a little noisy. For the money it was worth it.

This property is extremely outdated. There were a dozen stains on the carpets. Both mattresses were caved in, the WiFi did not work and the girl at the front desk was very unpleasant. Save your money.

Book directly through Inn for best prices.
our stay was very good. however, we will never book anything through hotels.com. and we will not recommend them to anyone. it cost us over $200 more for the room than booking directly, which is what I will do in the future. There needs to be hangers in the room and the water that comes out of the ice machine is not cold. The inn is very convenient to downtown Burlington.

The door bell situation is weird. Someone was ringing it in the middle of the night waking us up. Then the two women upstairs were engaged in very loud obnoxious relations for an hour at 3:00 am. No care was given that others might be in the hotel with them.Then, men in the hallway talking loudly and slamming doors at 6:00. I got zero sleep for a pretty hefty price.

I liked the quaintness of the property. It was a good mixture of old with the new. Also, I appreciated the attention to detail & the things they did with purposeful intention. I could tell they really cater to their regular customers. It was sweet.

Would definitely stay again!
Check-in was a breeze. All of the staff we encountered were very nice. There were some breakfast items in the morning (muffins, croissants, bananas, coffee, etc.). The room was very clean and the linens were comfortable. My only complaint, if you could even call it that, would be that the bed was a bit too much on the soft side for me. An overall good experience!
