Very nice place to stay

The couple who own this motel were very friendly and accommodating. When I called to let them know we would be late arriving they kept the lights on for us. After knowing we would arrive late they made sure we picked up something for dinner before coming into the area because every thing closed up by 8p.

Great staff and rooms!!

The checkin was easy done and we were in our room less than 10 min . The staff was very friendly and helpfull when asked about restaurants in the area. The room was very clean and had a small refrigerator with freezer,microwave and a kpod coffee machine. They also provided free coffee kpods with cream and sugar packets in the room. The power did go out for about 2 hours last night but we were already in bed as it was 2am and stormy out. Also a very nice largecswimming pool! I would definitely recommended !

Straightforward classic motel. Rooms are extremely spacious and very clean. It was perfect on our way through Maine, very quiet and comfortable. Skowhegan is only a short drive away and has plenty of dining options. Would definitely stop here again on a roadtrip.

Maine Stay

We was in town for a funeral of a family member. The hotel itself was a old one that has been updated/renovated. Our room was very clean, so was the bathroom very roomy in bathroom especially the shower. The water pressure was almost non existing. Took a while for the hot water to "kick in".The beds was comfy. But all in all it was a very good stay. Will be back!
