    friendly staff
    clean room
    outdated facilities
    dirty pool

    Starlite Budget Inn had a super handy location, just a hop away from tasty spots like Toast A Go Go and Anna's Country Buffet. The staff was friendly, which made our stay that much better. Plus, the room was clean and comfy—a cozy haven after a day of exploring!

    But let's be real, the place felt outdated, with wall a/c units and tiny fridges. The pool area had some major issues too—the outdoor pool was algae city, while the indoor one was kinda questionable. Still, it all had a certain charm.

    The location was perfect for family fun. Plus, I appreciated the friendly staff who made our stay easier, especially since I had my mother with me.

    convenient location
    lack of wi-fi
    limited breakfast options
    no coffee maker

    A convenient location made it easy to reach the ferry and explore nearby shopping. The friendly staff were a highlight, and the kids enjoyed the playground on-site. However, the lack of Wi-Fi was disappointing, and the breakfast options could be more varied. While the beds were moderately comfortable, not having a coffee maker or hair dryer might be a downside for some families.

    playground area
    affordable rates
    flushing toilet

    The pools offered a clean range, with the hot tub indoors providing a comfortable, chemical-free soak. There were also picnic tables, wooden swings, and a playground for the kids, making outdoor time enjoyable.

    The toilet had flushing issues which were only resolved after a lengthy wait, and the shower fluctuated annoyingly between hot and cold. Breakfast options were limited and challenging to carry back, with no trays or plates provided.

    During my stay at Starlite Budget Inn, I was pleasantly surprised by its cleanliness and the welcoming nature of the staff, especially Rebecca, who promptly arranged a shuttle for my ferry. I felt at ease and comfortable throughout my visit.

    WiFi service was very poor during my stay.

    Charming and Cozy Getaway

    Enjoyed a delightful stay! The manager's homemade gravy with biscuits for breakfast was a highlight. The quaint, well-maintained atmosphere made for a comfortable evening after a day of exploring. A tip, be patient when calling for the manager. she may take a bit to arrive.

    two-bedroom suite
    outdoor pool
    wifi issues

    We had a lovely time staying in a spacious two-bedroom suite, where our son loved the cozy corner for reading. The seasonal outdoor pool and sun loungers were a perfect way to unwind after a day of adventures. The only little hiccup was the wifi acting up a bit, but overall, we really enjoyed our stay! 😊
