Starlight Inn

We really noticed how clean, and well maintained the entire property is. The location is ideal for those exploring the Burlington area. One of our favorite things are the themed rooms, it’s quirky but awesome! Oh and the shower and bed were excellent in the Elvis Presley King Suite!

The coffee offered in room was absolutely terrible! Luckily there are plenty of places to grab a cup nearby! We did notice that we could hear conversation from the next room and could hear things going on in the parking lot - but this was not even that bad, just that we noticed it more this visit than our previous.

Beds were absolutely amazing! Cozy rooms

Hot water wasn't very good, would go back and forth between warm and cold but never hot. Had trouble getting the heater in the room to work correctly, was perfect during the day but the room got ungodly hot at night and wouldn't turn down .

Property was very clean and comfortable. The room was so pretty. I loved it. Easiest check in and check out I have experienced as it was contactless. I will definitely be staying here again!

The tub and shower were amazing. The room was cute!

The bed left us feeling stiff -this was the only downside.

The Starlight worked out great for us. The room was spacious and clean and the bed was very comfortable. The movie themed rooms were fun, but the highlight was the pass to the drive-in next door. We hadn’t been to a drive-in in years. It brought back many fond memories. We were initially reluctant to book a motel, but it turned out to be a great choice. It was so convenient being able to park right in front of our door. No schlepping our bags down long hallways or waiting for elevators. We were a quick hit to Burlington and to the Lake Champlain island road. We also liked the fact that we were able to watch the Red Sox on NESN.

We liked everything. The internet was spotty at times, but we survived. One thing that would have been helpful was a list of or link to information on nearby restaurants and attractions (such as walking trails, bike trails and places to enjoy the view of the lake).

This place completely caught us off guard in a great way. We did not realize it was a movie themed motel. Each room was a movie star theme. I won't ruin any surprises by saying which ours was, but let's just say we were flying high when we saw it. We also had no idea there was a drive in theatre next to the motel where we could watch movies for free. What a nice surprise! We just wish we knew that going in.

We did not like how there was nobody there to check us in. We were traveling internationally and luckily were able to use the phone, but if we did not have access to a phone to make a call we may not have been able to get in. Something to think about!

Beautiful property. Super clean, stylish and comfortable.

clean, quiet, easy to get to. check in was easy

nothing

This is a small, no-frills motor inn adjacent to a charming old-fashioned drive-in movie (I think the same owners) in Colchester, which is about a 10 minute drive from downtown Burlington. The room was spacious, up to date and very clean with a terrific king size bed with great bedding, so good value for a room not far from the center of things that was about $150 a night instead of roughly $300 a night to stay right in downtown Burlington. There was a supermarket, Dunkin Donuts etc within walking distance.

The wifi was so weak that it was basically useless; I couldn't even get an email to go through, never mind research things to do in Burlington (thankfully I had my iPhone). Also on Night 2, the TV kept mysteriously turning off - not sure if that was because of some button I pressed on the elaborate remote control but basically this took Wifi and TV off the table - thankfully I brought a book. Also, I didn't know how to get in to my room when I got there in the early evening and nobody was in the main office - I had to call the main number and the very friendly guy said my entry card was under a plant outside my door - probably I missed this info in the reservation, but I was briefly left not knowing how to get inside.

Clean room. Basic but everything we needed. Convenient access to a grocery and morning coffee spot. We were visiting Burlington and appreciated the relatively close proximity at a better price. Would recommend to visitors who are okay with not being at the center of the action at the days end, but who want to be close enough to come and go.

Some issues with WIFI that were not insurmountable but did make the stay less straightforward.
