No one was at the front desk to check us in. We could not get into the room we reserved. So, after a very long flight and drive, we had to look for another place to stay at 1 am. It was not a good experience.

Our stay was comfortable enough, but the property was very run down and there was a musty odor that no amount of opening the window could change. The shower apparatus was falling apart. Based on the condition of the rest of the physical plant, we weren't willing to try out the pool.

I loved my stay here and would recommend it and stay here again. The room’s layout was perfect for a longer stay (sometimes motel rooms are small or toilets are facing the bathtub so there’s little space to move but not here). It was super clean, and had a lovely smell everyday, even after a few days. The chair and bed were very comfortable, and very welcoming after day’s of hiking. The late night coffee and tea station was very appreciated! Thank you for making for a great, reasonably priced stay so close to Acadia!

The property is old and a little run down, but we only slept there and it fit out family 5. I was a bit annoyed they after I booked through Expedia, they charged us extra for a 5th person when we checked in, although I searched for a hotel that slept 5.
