This property has seen better days. That being said, the people at the front desk were nice. The room looked nice, but had a strong odor like old urine mixed with must/mold. They had a plug-in air freshener in the room that didn’t help. Kind of just made the odor worse. The sheets and towels were clean. Mattress good. Nice sized TV. For breakfast there was a waffle machine, four mini cinnamon buns,bread,cereal,and jugs of milk and coffee set out. Also four sausages and some powdered eggs in the steam table when the breakfast room opened. Pretty much what I expected for the price, except that odor in the room and throughout the hotel were a game-changer for me to come back again. Not sure if the smell is fixable, but if it isn’t,much business will be lost.

This is a great place to stay. The rooms are spacious and very clean. The breakfast was pretty good as well. The only suggestion I would make, is to upgrade the table lamps so that you have easier access to plug your wireless devices into. An awesome place and you can’t beat the price.

A Real Gem!
An amazing small independent hotel! The entire hotel was beautiful, perfectly clean....not a dirty spot to be found anywhere! It was quiet with terrific guest service, even though we did not arrive until 1:30am. Breakfast was far beyond expectations with eggs, sausage, and even make your own waffles, plus other continental items. When we come for family reunions, this will be our place!

One night stay at Burke Inn. The room was spacious and accommodating to our needs for the night. The stair ways needed a good vacuuming, the breakfast room was dark. No elevator.

It's fine. Basically the only place that takes dogs, which is why we booked. Booked a room online and then was told on arrival that we couldn't have a dog in that room, so we moved to a more basic room that allowed dogs. However, we were up-charged for the basic room, which we could've booked cheaper through Expedia had we known our originally-booked room wasn't dog-friendly. A dog cleaning fee was added, which was also not indicated anywhere until check in. They never changed the bedsheets or cleaned the room (or even dressed the bed), and only gave us fresh towels once in four days. That seemed a bit shoddy considering the extra $20 a day cleaning fee.
