Nice Place!
Very comfortable, clean room. Drive-in theater right on the other side of parking behind a privacy fence. Rooms have radio codes to listen to the movies next door shown on four screens. Unfortunately, we stayed after Labor Day when the theater only shows films on the weekends and we were there during the week.

Educate yourselves on the law with ADA regarding service animals. Don’t hang up on the caller…intentionally the second time…and then ask stupid questions about if the dog is going to pee in the room and if am going to ‘service’ the animal. Don’t say I can have the service dog but have to pay a pet fee. Illegal. Don’t say you want to see papers. Illegal. Also, no reason to be so rude and sarcastic. Your room wasn’t cheap. It was wonderful. And I paid good money for it. . I am not a joke as a person with a disability.

Great.
Clean and comfortable. Nice Hollywood theme. We did not take advantage of the drive in theatre next door (part of the room rate) but it is a nice idea. Large, spacious room. Cool place.

Had a great time in Colchester. This motel was perfect for us. Near a McDonalds for morning coffee and Zachary's Pizza has everything you could want for dinner. Beautiful area, beautiful friends, and beautiful weather made this trip one to remember.

This motel is quirky and interesting. The check in process for me was over the phone as no one was in the office upon my arrival. The person on the phone was however, pleasant and helpful and all went smoothly. The room is large and comfortable. The Elvis theme is fun and the free access to the drive-in is a welcome and unprecedented perk. All in all I will stay here again.

Property is easy access to older people with walkers. TV is limited but drive in movie is available when open. We never saw anyone in the office, but check-in and out was explained by the cleaner. Good enough resturants are nearby with accessable parking. Burlington parking is a challenging.

Wanna be Hollywood motel
Room size was ok. Pillows were extremely flat. Thank goodness there were extras. Drive-in theater was next door. Owner provides free tickets to it. This doesn’t warrant the high price of the room. Motel is right next to the road.

Very quaint and cute property. We were in the VIP suite and it was quite large. Great big jacuzzi bathtub too! Easy check-in, but had to read the fine print to realize the front desk wasn’t open past evening (and we were arriving late), so luckily had printed out the reservation with all the details. Those weren’t on notice at the site I used to make the reservation. Theres a great drive in movie theatre literally next door. The decor was kitschy Hollywood prints. And the bed was fantastic!
