    I didn¿t like anything about the hotel except the location. Although, it is in a very busy road and my room was less than 10 feet from the edge of the highway so constant traffic noise keep me awake all night.

    Everything about the place was very old and had a used furniture look about it and the property was just covered in weeds. Had to look at an abandoned building although many people were staying there. The so-called breakfast with nothing to speak of it wa

    Visiting with the clerk and the classical music. The outside was cute.

    Rooms need to be updated. A little pricey.

    8Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 9-21-2021

    Location is a key and price. This is a back to basic motel. It is clean, tidy and the mattresses are comfortable. The motel is an easy drive into Acadia and the sites.

    This motel is in need of an update in carpet, furniture and style as it is circa 1980 at best.

    9Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 9-20-2021

    The motel was ideal for our busy daily excursions. It was a no-frills room, but very clean. Coffee and donuts for breakfast in the office for breakfast. It was conveniently located for the things we wanted to do in the area. The owner was very helpful.

    No, it was ideal for our needs.

    10JacksonPosted on: 9-19-2021

    Price and that it was available. The host kindly allowed me to stay an extra hour after check-up so that I could complete a Zoom business appointment. He also offered the use of a desk. Our room had a nice back deck.

    The room was too small for comfortable placement of a desk. There's significant traffic noise being so close to the road, but there's nothing to be done about that, and the location was convenient. The pros definitely outweigh minor cons.

    Clean, cozy room.

    Maybe more shelving in the toilet sink.

    10Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 9-6-2021

    The pricing was great for the service provided. Its location though a bit far from the park entrance but was nice and quiet at night.

    The wifi signal was unstable and kind of slow in the room we stayed in.

    On Main road

    Was charged extra even book two double bed and max rates listed in the room were below than what he charged.

    almost everything...esp. privacy...The best...love it...will come back

    The donuts breakfast are OK...but if you are investing or spending some money for free breakfast for clients, why not just buy some fruits too...instead of all sugary foods? Some fruits are cheap...like banana..in the morning. You help folks to be healthy

    Rooms were very clean and the staff were all very friendly and knowledgeable. Check-in was quick and efficient, even though we arrived at the same time as 4 other groups! Good location for visiting Acadia and Bar Harbor.

    If you're looking for common amenities like an iron or microwave you won't find them here.

    8Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 7-15-2018

    Location near the parks and nature centers. Reasonable cost.

    Unable to open windows at night as our room was facing a highway.

    10DhavalPosted on: 7-2-2018

    Cozy environment, room had both fridge and microwave as asked for.

    I really prefer a motel/hotel to have a full breakfast as traditional bed and breakfast, but I knew beforehand that they would not have breakfast and was pleased with the coffee and donuts for breakfast.

    Small but clean. Very nice owner.

    Very noisy air conditioner. Only had a small shower, I prefer a tub.

    10NathanPosted on: 8-29-2016

    Great price for the proximity to Bar Harbor. Nice hotel with friendly and flexible staff. Very clean with all the basics covered.

    No frills. If you are planning on sitting by the pool then strolling over to the bar this is not the place for you. If you are only going to sleep in your hotel then this place is perfect.

    6Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 8-3-2016

    Location is good, along the main road to Bar Harbor. Price is about as good as you're going to get anywhere close to Mount Desert Island and Acadia. Staff was friendly and courteous.

    Excessive road noise, even later at night, made it tough to sleep. Very small room. At one point, door could not shut fully, though that was quickly fixed by staff. Window A/C unit wasn't draining water and got so loud it had to be shut off for a time.
