We loved the location of The Tugboat Inn - our room was on the pier over the water. We found the room to be dated - furniture had nicks, the pictures on the walls were faded and dreary, the carpet had seen better days, and the toilet made awful noises and we discovered that the water supply was almost completely shut off and it wasn't filling up properly. Just seems like things could be updated to make the room cheerier and more up-to-date.

Reserved a room for two nights December 27-28. There was no heat in the room. Desk is not manned after 9 pm. In the morning, notified the desk and maintenance confirmed that there was no heat. It was after noon day two before we were moved to a room with heat. It was below 30 degrees the first night. A refund was requested and we were told to request a refund from Expedia. My card was charged for the second night at check-in. Heat is expected in December in Maine. What is my recourse?

The property has beautiful views and is convenient to all of the shops. Unfortunately the cleanliness of the room was terrible. It had looked as if only the bed was made. From the toilet, to the dust in the room was pretty gross. There was no time to ask for another room, as we were rushing to get to a wedding.

The Tugboat is an older property and it shows. The location is great for visiting Boothbay Harbor but the room is a bit rough around the edges. The key was hard to work to the door, luckily a staff member was in the area and explained the way to make it work....would have been helpfull at check in. There was an empty kleenx box with no replacement and only plastic water cupe for the coffee pot. For the price, not a gooe fit
