The property is in poor repair and is in serious need of an update. When we arrived the towels were on the floor and when we called about getting clean towels we were told we’d have to wait until the following day.

When booking at the Starlite, expectations MUST be managed. This booking is in the Catskills, got it. Each area/region has a specific aesthetic. However, basic standards of good business practices SHOULD BE CONSISTENT wherever the booking. Basic things like functionally of the “amenities”, cleanliness of the space SHOULD BE a given! And, considering the price I was charged for this booking, these accommodations ABSOLUTELY missed the mark! Burn marks on the cheap carpet, missing and broken tiles in the bathroom, old/out dated furnishings that are too worn to be properly cleaned, spotty/unreliable WiFi in a region where you’ll probably have no other signal/connectivity access…. Look, if the price was commensurate with the experience, I would have no comments. However, you can’t charge Hyatt Regency prices and deliver an experience comparable to lodgings that charge BY THE HOUR and usually host shady behavior! I was depending on that 9.2 rating to be the case, as a woman traveling solo for work. This place was an absolute disappointment. I truly wish I could post screenshots. Book at your own risk!!
A rain shower head  installed as a regular shower head. One could drown😩 An actual hazard ⚠️
Tile damage
Missing tiles
Old, questionable furnishings with troubling levels of ware and residue.

I was a bit nervous staying at a motel, but the Starlite exceeded expectations. Large rooms, very clean, comfortable beds with lots of pillows and well equipped kitchen. And only a six minute drive from Bellearye Mountain. Easy late check-in was a plus.
