The hotel is dated and I am really ok with that. I understand upgrades cost, the bathroom grout and sylicone were black. that can be cleaned and fixed. and the toilet seat was in terrible shape. another easy fix. The room had a bad smell, I needed to keep the sliding door open for a hour each day to try and air out the room. there seemed to be a few hours everyday that they didn't have staff on site. I do not find that this hotel was worth the money.

The conditions of the room were pretty bad. The ceiling in the room had disgusting stains on it. The bathroom walls were coming off. Silicone is coming off around the bathtub. Ceiling in the bathroom also have yellow stains allover and it looked like it can fall down any minute. The floors are wooden so for half a night it sounded like someone is walking and sliding chairs on our heads (we were on the first floor). The plumbing was making noises too. We did not end up using the pool or any other facilities. The breakfast was ok with some healthy options like hard boiled eggs, cream cheese bagels, etc. Location is 30 minutes away from Bar Harbor. The restaurant next door is good. Overall, all of this would be acceptable if we were paying $100 USD for the room, for $300/night it is not.
