“Do not stay here!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 October 2010

We had planned to stay at this hotel after attending a wedding. The morning of our reservation, we received the sad news that a member of our family had died. I called the motel at 9:15 a.m. that morning and left the message we would not be staying the night. When I received the charge on my credit card, I called the motel. The receptionist stated that I could be lying to her and so I was charged. I wrote to the owner regarding this unkind practice and received no reply. Friends of ours who had reservations there, told us at the wedding (we returned home that night) that we were lucky we were going home. They said the place was such a dump they were considering going and getting their things after the wedding and heading home - a two hour drive. And they had paid for the night. It was that bad. There are better places to stay in the area. Don't stay here.

“very much ok”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 September 2010

Times change, I don't know what it was like in 2006 but I spent here two days and found it an excellent, quiet place, beautifully located, spacious room, spotless clean. Slept like a log in a comfortable bed. Staff was just normal and polite, the English not always clear but I got what I wanted (= the lowest price as shown in the AAA tourbook, which is really great value for your money). I'm a seasoned budget traveller of the US, and know of many not-so-good motels runned by people from India but this place is the proverbial exception. Check it out!

“great value and pet friendly”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 March 2010

I don't understand the negative reviews the candle light got. My wife and I stayed there with our two large dogs for a ski weekend. We found our room to be very clean, the bed comfortable and the owners (who are not middle eastern by the way, if that matters to anyone) to be friendly and eager to please. Not only did they NOT require us to crate our dogs, they even let us stay past the check out time so we could get in an extra day of skiing for a very modest fee. I would recommend this inn to anyone, especially dog owners who like to travel with their pets.

“Efficient with a super Hard bed”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 January 2009

The Candlelight offered an efficient no frills place to stay for a really excellent price. We were checked in and then we were checked out. Stress free and unremarkable. But I didn't sleep a wink. The bed must have been very old because it was more uncomfortable than the floor. If I went again I'd take some foam with me. Other than that it's a deal for this part of Vermont!

Stayed April 2006

“Don't stay here”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 July 2008

We had reservations for two nights. On the way to the hotel, our car caught fire and was totalled. When I called to cancel the reservation, the person I talked to said it "wasn't his fault" and that they'd have to charge us for the night. I explained again and he said "these are tough times" . He was possibly going to be out $79, I was out a car. Bad attitude, bad business, don't stay there.
