This is a vintage motel, comfortable enough, and clean, but not up to date. Easy parking; some restaurants nearby; wifi works well. Most of the usual room furnishings. Coffee machine down the hall, with intermittent refilling. Surprisingly, there is no security for the guest rooms: the access doors to the corridor are unlocked all night, the areas around the access stairs are dark, and the door to our room lacked a security bolt. Even in a quiet town this seems irresponsible. Overall, it's a kind of 1980s student experience.

Easy to find, other than the GPS instructing me to do a U-turn to access the property! Easy check in. Very nice room, clean and spacious with a sitting area. Each floor has a coffee station plus kettle and tea selection. A basket of granola bars is set out. Not exactly the inn keepers fault but noisy neighbors on both sides slamming themselves and belongings into the walls. Inn was not busy, based on only a handful of cars, so it seems the inn keeper could have spaced out the occupied rooms which would limit the noise from adjacent rooms.

So-so Hotel
The staff was friendly and pleasant. There were croissants, muffins, fruit, coffee, and tea available for breakfast. But this hotel doesn’t deserve a rating above 8.0 in my opinion. More like a 7.0. This is an old motel with little modernization. The street traffic was loud. The bed was very hard. Cleanliness was so-so. There are better choices in the Burlington/Colchester area.

The good: The shower was fantastic and the beds and pillows were comfortable. They offered limited breakfast selections on the go. The bad: We could hear traffic on the highway all night long. The parking lot is not set up well. Stairs only, no elevator so not very accessible for everyone.
