I have stayed here before and it is just as terrific as I remember. It got a tad expensive and I stayed at other places in Gorham but none can compare. So I came back! Very quiet, comfortable and with good amenities. Plus the staff is very friendly and accommodating.

We did not notice that this room was a roadside room. It is only about 20 feet from a highway and the traffic noise made it very difficult to rest. We will have to check twice on Expedia room descriptions in the future. Of course if I had seen this description I am not sure I would have figured that it was so close to the highway. Additionally the manager was very good about offering us a complimentary upgrade to a “quieter” room but it was only 50 feet from the highway so we declined since it meant moving all of our luggage.
