I’ve stayed at the Starlight Inn a few times, and each time it’s been a wonderful experience. The individual rooms are themed for actors and/or actresses or iconic duos, the rooms are always clean and tidy, and I have had no complaints over all of my visits. Really a wonderful business and a joy to stay in.

What a very cool place to stay. Clean, bright with updated rooms: giant bed (the John Wayne room ) & bigger shower. There was a complimentary coupon for the old school 4 screen drive in movie theatre next door too. UVM parent’s weekend and still not as pricy as the bigger chains. Support local businesses. Two thumbs up.

Neat old rooms. Being able to park right in front was nice. Bed was comfortable. Having to call a number to contact the people and be told my key is under a flower pot, not too hot.

The Starlight Motel exceeded our expectations in every way. Quiet, uniquely decorated, comfortable beds, responsive (remote) staff. And very, very clean. Also easy reach to downtown Burlington waterfront. We will most definitely be back!

The property sits right next to the Drive in theater and you can get in for free by staying at the property. Its just a cute little place with different themed rooms. We had Tom Cruise. We were too tired to go to the drive in but its a great amenity.

This property is connected to an outdoor drive in movie theater. I didn’t realize that. It was not a problem and the room was very nice and quiet. I think the theater admission was included with the room.
