Joseph, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay in terms of accommodations. The location is kind of isolated in terms of dining options. There is one fast food option close by. Otherwise, you will have to travel into Burlington for other choices.
Rick, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Highly recommend!!

Beautifully renovated motel with many amenities that are no longer standard in independent and chain motels. Very clean. Easy check in and check out. Best placed we’ve stayed!

Wonderful place to stay!! The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. The bathroom was huge and had two sink areas.
Buffy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved the old time quality. And all the thoughtful amenities. The experience is one I wish we could find in all motels. Highly recommend this motel.

Lisa, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Awesome location and price!

Prices in Burlington proper were VERY high. The Starlight Inn is just a few miles north and one can easilyy get into the city. We also found it well placed for excursions in ANY direction. It was SO quaint and unique. It was well priced and allowed us to spend money elsewhere...breweries, vineyards etc.
Julie, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect check in, clean room and right next door to a drive in movie theater. Perfection
Gregory, 1-night trip

The cleanliness was a plus. A very cute and well-kept motel! Comfortable beds! An affordable place to stay while passing through VT. Would stay here again! Thank you!
Teresa, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This property was amazing! Incredibly clean and the room themes were a fun touch. Beds were comfortable the bathroom was huge with accommodations for handicapped access. Love that you could have access to the Drive-In with your room key. Just a spectacular experience.
Dawn, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This property is adorable! Very clean, spacious and comfortable. The drive-in theater tickets are a bonus. We arrived too tired to attend this time but plan to stay here again when we're back in the area. Also, even though the theater is right next door, we heard nothing in our room.
Melanie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Our first time staying here and we loved it. Easy check in and the room was all ready for us. The room was spotless. Unfortunately it was raining so we didn't go to the drive-in. We will definitely come back!
Nicole, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room was immaculate. Although no one was on the property, it was easy to reach them by phone. The bed was comfortable (not so much for me because I don't like memory foam). Room well laid out, not quite so easy bath and toilet for handicapped. Would recommend highly.
Leanora, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location near shops and restaurants. Room was spacious and VERY clean. We loved the free admission to the drive in movie next door. I only knew of this amenity because of a comment in the reviews. There wasn’t any info about this in the room that I saw. If you book here, show your room key and they let you in the drive-in movies for free.
Erin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Fantastic little motel
Michelle Renee, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I loved my stay! FYI, if you go during the drive-in season, you have free access by showing your room key. It is unfortunate we weren’t told about this and paid the 25$ fee at the entrance, however we’ll know for next time. I loved the concept of movie stars and the decor.
Jorge Stefano, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great little motel, bed didn’t work for me.

Great comfortable spacious room. Everything you would expect from a two star hotel. Good Wi-Fi, good temperature control. My only problem was the thick memory foam topper to the mattress, which made it impossible for me to sleep, like sleeping in Big canyons, and hills. Didn’t expect that—I didn’t realize just how horrible it was. So if you love that, then this is the motel for you!
