The pictures about this motel is mostly inaccurate. It shows a living room, a kitchen… but it is not true. Nothing but a queen bed and a tiny bathroom.

This place was the most horrible place we have ever encountered. The room had not been updated since 1960. I am not kidding and I am not exaggerating when you walked into the room. It smelled like mold. We went to the desk to cancel the reservation and they offered us an updated room, but it would cost us more money. I think that is called bait and switch, which is illegal the pictures of the room on Expedia do not match the actual picture of the room I think Expedia should reconsider offering this site for their customers

Quality was about as expected for this price. We didn’t need anything special since we were spending long days in Acadia. The place was clean and had daily house keeping. Very out dated and some broken ceiling tiles, but clean. AC worked great. The room fit our need perfectly and didn’t break the bank

All we wanted was a good nights sleep but instead we were kept up most of the night by a loud and noisy next door tenant. We were actually told by management to bang on the wall to quiet them down! Out of desperation we did but to no avail… the noise continued. Management said they were gone home and lived far away so they couldn’t be bothered. Later we found out that they lived across the road. We did ask for a refund that night to go find a place elsewhere but they refused to give one. If you want to party all night this hotel would be ok but if you have a family or just simply want a good nights sleep, go elsewhere. Nevertheless all the other regular people working there were very understanding, kind and considerate.

It turns out they are right next to the Bar Harbor Lobster Pound (which is one of the main reasons we come to Maine). Nice folks in the office and the room was ok, bed was comfortable.

The property, like the building, was practical, not beautiful, but the staff was friendly and professional,the rooms were quiet (even the bikers staying there came and went without revving their engines) and everything I needed was provided. It was an excellent value and I would stay there again.

Motel is in bad shape - D

Stay away from this dump. The exterior condition is poor: paint falling apart, roof is in shambles. There were people loitering in the parking lot and didn’t look safe. Inside the room there were critters. The room was dated, had a musty odor and was very small - a double/ queen bed barely fit. The bathroom was old and smaller than a cruise ship bathroom. We booked online based on the description and pre paid over $140 per night for 2 nights. At the property they were offering the rooms for $69 per night. Still no takers. We didn’t check in as the online description did not match the property. However the hotel would not refund our payment. We do not recommend this property. Unfortunately we’ve had similar bad experiences with Hotels.com. They do not stand behind the property listings nor do they verify them. The star rating does not mean anything - I would give this property 0 stars and delist them. I’m not happy with how Hotels.com handled or reservation either.

This motel is one step above camping. Dated, run down and if they give you room 26, just turn around and sleep in your car. On the plus side, the staff is very nice.
