I checked in near midnight after a late flight, and the clerk spontaneously offered me a late checkout at noon, rather than 11:00 AM, which I gratefully accepted. The price was also surprisingly low for a full suite with a good kitchenette. I would definitely stay there again, especially for a longer stay in the Burlington area. Although I did not use the kitchenette, it was well set-up, with stainless steel cookware rather than peeling dangerous non-stick, and a full-size fridge and dishwasher. I had a few minor issues about the room that I shared with the clerk on checkout -- one was that I could have used full instructions on the full-size Keurig, which I do not have at home and never figured out. They were taken seriously and I'm sure they will be addressed.

Dated but worth it!

Could not have asked for better service. The friendliest staff I’ve ever encountered. The hotel is a little dated but how clean everything was overshadowed the vibe for sure.

Reviews online for this property were great so I was very surprised at the condition of the hotel. Right after we checked in, we heard a gentleman come in behind us and say I’m not staying here. Give me my money back. The property is very very outdated. Wallpaper was peeling and there was a heavy smell in our room. It seemed like it must’ve been a smoking room at one point and has never been fully cleaned of it since. My son was staying on the pullout couch and when we pulled it out, it was covered in crumbs. The staff was very friendly and helpful and gave us clean bedding when I asked for something for the couch. For the amount of money that we paid we definitely did not get the value. We always try to get a room with a kitchenette, which was our saving grace, but I will never stay at this property again. I definitely do not recommend it.
