"The property was clean, and the bed was reasonably comfortable. However, the room felt quite dated and could benefit from significant updates. The décor and furnishings gave it the feel of an old basement from the 1980s, and there was a noticeable odor that seemed to be masked with an air purifier rather than fully addressed. On the positive side, the location was excellent, with plenty of restaurants, bars, and other amenities within easy walking distance. I had only text and phone...
"I checked into my room at first it looked clean but later when I went to pull the shade closed there were spots of human blood i assume, the blood was on the plastic rod that you pull the shade closed and the shade it self . Made it feel like the whole place was dirty."
"This was the most lovely New England room and home. We truly had an amazing time. Right next to a ton of lovely breakfast spots, ample parking, and about a 25 minute drive from Acadia. Would highly recommend!"
"Everything went smoothly, the place was very,very clean. The mattress was soft like other reviews indicate but good enough to sleep. I enjoy the morning coffee. Our suite was nice and spacious.The town is not too far from Bar Harbor, I would go back there again."
"The staff was really helpful during checkout and morning breakfast was nice. Also hot coffee & chocolate all day long was a good addition. Hotel was clean and well kept, pool was smelling of chlorine (didn’t use)."
