The Rooms are freshly renovated & clean the Staff is attentive and very helpful , parking is right outside your door , it’s within walking distance to the Water Front park and Restaurants , I’d stay again.
Very nice motel with huge rooms. Everything was very clean. Older style rooms but have a nice rustic feeling to them. The management was insanely polite. We stayed at other hotels and nothing was as nice or pet friendly as this one. Will definitely be coming back for another stay!
The Motel is under new ownership and the staff are endlessly working on the property from the inside out! On a daily basis the management accommodates every request to make weekenders, travelling contractors and overnighter customers satisfied above and beyond. Can't wait to see the finished product. Keep up the great work guys and gals
Cant get a better view of the Burlington Bay then from the rear of the motel. Dinner and drinks are steps away and all ground floor rooms! Excellent architectural site next door
Great location right on the water, and close to local shops and restaurants. Reasonably priced and great service over the phone. Room was clean and updated. Would stay again!
Super friendly staff, lovely old Spot kept spotless, a mix of old and new in the best location in Burlington. Added bonus, you have a guaranteed parking spot 2 minutes walk to the main downtown and waterfront park. You can’t beat the prices, either. You need to call to reserve a room.
This is a slice of the past perfectly preserved. Rooms are small, but very clean. Our room faced the lake and had a beautiful view. Nothing fancy, but a fun alternative!
excellent staff very very reasonable pricing and absolute beautiful view. I have been here for 1 year and have not had any issues at all. Also the only pet friendly affordable place to stay in Burlington. i would recommend this motel to anyone who is looking for a short term or a long term stay.
