Staff was awesome! Breakfast was good. The room wasn’t as pictured for size, cleanliness or ambience. Facility needs upgrading. Needs new carpeting, new paint, exhaust fan in bathroom was very loud. Lights flickered. Couldn’t regulate the temperature in the room. The $300 room was actually only worth $150 compared to other places we’ve stayed with same amenities.

No heat in our room so taking a shower was bad news until mgmnt gave us a space heater to plug in. After 5 nights, mgr said will get heater fixed after move out. Were there 7 nights living with a space heater pointed at bathroom and our beds. Breakfast was minimal with eggs, potatoes, coffee, jc. No meat til last morning.

Having never been to Maine, we were so impressed with everything. We had a fabulous meal in the Ships restaurant and bar. My husband said it was his favorite dinner on our fall foliage trip.

This is a typical New England inn. Very quaint with a lot of character. It’s in a great location, right across the street from the park and beach. Our room was small, but comfortable. However, I have to say I’ve never seen such a tiny bathroom. It was difficult to shower - the stall was sooo small! And the sink was just a tiny little triangle!

Awesome breakfast

The best breakfast ever!!!! Very friendly staff! The temperature control in the room was quirky. Please trade out the bed frame to recess the corner legs. Extreme hazard to toes. Great view of the harbor.

Room furniture in poor conditions. Depressing.

Most of the furniture in our room are in poor conditions. Some have veneers in the process of peeling off. Obviously there is a lack of care and maintenance. A bit depressing, really.
