The city is beautiful. The people we met on the streets were friendly. And the town smelled good (I know that sounds strange but it really did smell good). We went to the Old Town Burlington Museum and had a blast.

Burlington is small and very hard to find a place to eat. We tried a Mexican restaurant and sat there for 25 minutes with no service so we left. Burlington does offer a great spot to stop for the night on our long travel to Oklahoma City.

I would not recommend this property. It was run down and no hot water. The office door was smashed. It was weird having flies in the room and there were swatters which we used. The beds were worn out and no smoke alarm.

We detoured significantly from our journey to see the Kit Carson County Carousel. We were very pleased to have made the effort to see this historic and fun Burlington attraction. The staff at the merry-go-round were very friendly and informative, and the antique ride itself (1905) was beautiful and fascinating. Rides were on the hour and half hour for 25 cents, and the excellent museum's admission was $1. A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE!

The 1908 Carousel which is a National Historic Landmark. The Dish Room which serves gourmet meals, excellent drinks and wonderful service! We will stay in Burlington again just so we can try another item at the Dish Room.

My biggest comment on Burlington is that the town closes early, most places by 9 pm. As a traveler, from a large city, I am accustomed to late night access to dining and groceries. There was a wide assortments of PLACES to eat, but with a late night arrival, not many open. If I had arrived earlier in the day, there was convenient access to parking and exploring areas around town.
