Such a cute little property with its own little bar for breakfast and happy hour. Very aestheticly pleasing. Same with the room itself. I will cherish the memories I got to make in this little town and in the national park for the rest of my life and love the place that I chose to stay for the night to make those memories happen.

The location is the best part of this hotel. The rooms are clean, the gym is ok, and the breakfast leaves a lot to be desired. But the location allows you to access downtown Bar Harbor with ease and it came in super handy on a rainy day.

Very antique building with a modern update feeling, but not so much updated that it takes away from the history. It would be bice to have hot foods for breakfast. I feel most of the foods were grab and go, not really "breakfast". Other than that, it was great.

The hotel was very comfortable and central to everything. Since it is off season, they didn't have housekeeping in for a couple of days, but I'm sure it's better when in season. The staff were friendly and helpful! The room was nice and comfortable!

Cramped bathroom

The room we have had the tiniest bathroom i had very seen. Very uncomfortable to maneuver in the shower. Their remodelling of the room didn't consider the use of bathroom at all. As soon as we see the bathroom, we decided to checkout earlier. The manager was very accommodating. Refunded us the second night charge. The hotel is super clean and friendly. Unfortunately, the bathroom is designed terribly, don't know how guests could use it comfortably.
