Although I didn't arrive to enjoy the pool and hot tub, it is a nice feature. I liked the convenience of its location off I95; easy off/on. Several retail shops and restaurants nearby. It was a safe place to stop for the night since I was traveling alone. Well stocked breakfast options to grab and go. I would stay again.

We stayed one night on the way to Bar Harbor. We chose this place because of multiple excellent reviews; however, the hotel didn’t meet our expectations for the $$ we paid. It’s quite outdated hotel with GRAB AND GO breakfast like back to COVID times. Room may need some updates and cleaning (poorly smelling). Bed was comfortable. We didn’t use a restaurant though as we thought for the $$ we paid we should have some decent continental breakfast. We wouldn’t stay here again.

The staff are very friendly, and they support one another. The breakfast is nicely laid out, and you had an option of preparing a bag to take with you. On a couple of days we prepared a lunch of bagel and cream cheese to take with us. This is an older hotel, but will maintained, and reminiscent of hotels I remember from 50 years ago.
