I stayed for two days and had a wonderful experience. The room was cozy, clean, and well-maintained, and the room service was excellent. The location was very convenient—just a short driving distance from the Acadia National Park Visitor Center and Bar Harbor. I’d definitely love to return!

Great experience, very nice staff and the room was clean, the only downside was the bed being a little on the hard side and the shower would immediately be switched to shower mode once you open the faucet. Otherwise it was good!

When checking in, the staff member was nice and gave us information about the park. Our room was quite small and basic, and overpriced. In some areas, the grass was long and unkept. The location was a bit far from Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. Coffee and tea were available in the small reception area, along with bite-sized cake donuts.

Old style motel that has been kept up well. Baskets of flowers all around. We had a motel room with two double beds and a kitchen, and it had a large table so we could play board games.

Good location outside of Bar Harbor. The front desk person was very friendly & helpful. The only negative was the small bathroom & shower space and the direction of shower head was not adjustable.

The cabin was tiny with no frills, and very clean/tidy. Just what we needed for our 3-night hiking trip. There were 4 reasonably comfortable armchairs, no sofa or loveseat. One tiny table that we used to eat dinner one night. The bedrooms each had a bed and nightstand with table lamp, and no door, which was not a problem for us. Bathroom was tiny and the showerhead could have been better, but it was spotless. They provided clean towels each day. There was a blow dryer, soap and shampoo, so no need to pack your own. There is a drink machine on premises.

Our room was clean and spacious. We had a full kitchen, dishes, and cookware. Management was very nice and accommodating. It wasn't a Marriott, but it was clean and comfortable. It was near a major street and we could hear traffic but not enough to bother. The street went to Bangor one way and to Bar Harbor/Acadia National Park the other way. A stop for the free bus service to Acadia & Bar Harbor was also very close-but wasn't marked.

This was not the first time I have stayed here and it won't be the last. Definitely one of my favorite hotels. No its not fancy or has room service or anything like that. But its clean and safe and for an older person safety is a priority. Its on a busy road so its not very quiet. But the location is what makes it easy to get to the hot spots. The owners are fantastic people. Rooms are old but very clean. This hotel reminds me of the places we use to stay when I was a kid. This is a very comfortable hotel. Definitely recommend it
