Lack of breakfast, but plenty of snacks coffee and water.

Very clean and eclectic. Friendly cats and bar were a bonus.

Cleanliness, bar and the attitude

The trains going by every hour all night long. It felt more like a hostel but was pretty expensive for that kind of stay.

I liked the vibe and the step back in history to sleeping rooms and shared facilities. It was nice to be directly across from the river.

Another great stay at the Burlington. We will continue to make this an annual trip and Im happy to have added family this year who are just as sold as I am. Jennifer is a wonderful host and the accommodations are prefect a comfortable group experience. She knows the area and makes great local recommendations for the stay and always entertains and ensures a good time at the on-site bar. We'll be back annually!

An historic hotel filled with charm. Jenifer the owner bartends on Friday and Saturday nights. She is part of the charm.

Perhaps more lighting in the stairwell when you enter from the first floor, and larger garbage cans in the bathrooms. Can quickly overflowed on my second night because there were more guests.

Very well maintained facility. Rooms were more spacious than I thought they'd be for an older hotel. Bed was very comfortable. You can't beat the view from the balcony on the second floor! Host was fantastic!!!

Cute small-town hotel in a beautiful area of the state! Jennifer was an excellent hostess, we enjoyed chatting with her and the regulars in the bar downstairs after exploring during the day. The rooms were very clean and tidy, and there were many thoughtful amenities (keurig pods, a refrigerator, water bottles left in our room, plenty of extra shampoo and conditioner if we forgot anything).

Beautiful old hotel

Jennifer was such a wonderful host! Running the Burlington Hotel is her hobby and you can tell she enjoys it. The hotel itself was like stepping back in time. We enjoyed sitting out on the upper porch across from the Mississippi River watching the sunset. The downstairs bar is comparable to going to an Irish Pub.

Noisy trains coming by almost every hour, did not get a heads up on that.

Very cordial host on premises, cleanliness, precise painting of walls, trim etc.

Air flow can be challenging.

The hotel is quaint, and our host. An honor is always so kind and hospitable! Thank you!

Honestly, not much! The room was a bit small, but it was not a problem, the bed was still comfy :)

The overall vibe of the property was very cozy and homey. Overall a quiet and comfortable stay. They even provided earplugs if the sound of trains bothers you, but you don’t need them, it’s very faint

We would like to have parked off the main street, but handy spaces were available directly in front of the building. Front stairs were a bit challenging for me to maneuver, but I managed since we were out at a wedding during most of our stay.

No breakfast was provided, as expected. Was expecting lots of noise due to motorcycle traffic on Main St and nearby trains, but room was very quiet. Very comfortable; enjoyed my stay. Sharing bathrooms was not a problem. Interesting place to stay!

All the trains! But that's just part of the town. It is very interesting and eye opening to see a little bit of how this beautiful nation of ours keeps everything moving with barges and trains!

Jennifer our host was so nice. The rooms were cute, clean and comfortable. Lots of opportunities to meet other travelers.

Love the old hotel charm

A spicket water instead of a jug to lift. Put the refrigerator somewhere else if it's not for guests.

I didn't know about any breakfast

Nothing!

Jennifer was an amazing host n the facility was perfect

Stayed in June 2023

Occupancy was misleading. Stairs were tricky with bad knees. Pets on location

Location, live music, cleanliness, friendly

I loved the beautifully restored railroad hotel. Rooms are small as advertised, but that's perfectly fine with me. Common kitchenette, TV room and bathroom met our needs and expectations. Really like the bar/lounge area. If I get to the area again I'd love to book the queen room with the exposed brick!

Very unique and historic building.
