Hawthorn Extended Stay by Wyndham Williston/Burlington

The rooms are huge and the hotel is so clean. We paid more than I’d wanted to, but needed space for as many as five adults. Four of us stayed, and six could’ve fit comfortably. The reviews don’t do this place justice.

Everyone was kind to us, and both our room and the seating area by the main entrance were clean and tidy. We enjoyed the continental breakfast, which had lots of variety.

The room felt stylish and had a really comfortable bed. It’s a new hotel with nice rooms, though ours was a bit echoey and the door wouldn’t latch by itself, so check that it’s firmly shut. For VT, the location was convenient, with plenty of places to eat and shop nearby. Go before 8:30 p.m., though, because everything closes early. I’d stay again when visiting family without the kids. Weekend vacation!

Our king suite had a lot of room and a well-equipped kitchen: full-size fridge, two-burner stovetop, sink, microwave, dishwasher, and the essentials. The bathroom was spacious, too. Breakfast was free, with scrambled and boiled eggs, waffles, bacon or sausage, fruit, bread, cereal, coffee, and juice. The hotel was brand new and clean, and the staff were helpful and friendly. Someone was at the door at all hours. There was both above-ground and underground parking. The WiFi was strong, the location was a 10/10, and the price was reasonable. A really nice stay outside Burlington.
