One of the most basic motels in Killington - but also one of the most reasonable. We ended up here due to a trip being planned last-minute. The motel is old and worn but clean. Front desk staff was extremely friendly. Fantastic shower pressure a big plus!

Stopped here after the solar eclipse to go snowboarding. Arrived at 7pm, check-in was fastest I've seen anywhere and friendly. Parked by the office, room was right above. For the location right on Killington Road, you can't beat this for the price.

Very unfriendly management. Bugs found in the room. Should have been given a refund. Not worth it.

I booked a night here specifically because I was traveling with my kids and dogs. I searched “dog friendly” After we arrived and checked in, we were notified that dogs are not allowed there and we needed to leave. He argued with us and took the room key from the door and shut the door on us, saying that it’s “not his problem”. I asked for a refund and some formal notice and was provided with a printed price of paper to take a picture of stating that the dog policy changed as of Jan. 1,2023…. We would have been there Aug. 18…. I would think that is plenty of time to update all web resources. We went to the Days Inn in Rutland instead, where it cost an extra $50, but the kids got to use the pool and we got fresh waffles for breakfast.
