Acadia Mount Desert Island Self-Guided Driving Audio Tour
"The room was very nice and clean. There was a lot of parking in the back. It was an easy drive to Acadia and Bar Harbor. There are also lots of restaurants close to the place."
"The property is very nice. Clean rooms and a good variety of breakfast options. A special treat was complimentary ice cream!
However, the sound insulation is lacking, resulting in loud sounds of doors closing, footsteps from the room above us, etc."
"The room was immaculate. We were in the annex to the back. I was Leary but totally amazed when we walked in. No cruddy carpet, only clean and fresh. Mattress was so-so but the AC was quiet.
Close to Acadia and not Bar Harbor prices.
Breakfast had so many options. Hard boiled eggs, packaged bagels, muffins and the like. Plenty of drinks and yogurt to choose from.
Stay Here! You won’t be sorry."
"The room was great. The pool was great I only wish the mini fridge had a freezer.
The breakfast buffet was good but the bacon was half cooked and was unappetizing"
"You have to pay to use the laundry room with quarters there is a machine . Overall great clean room, with some kitchen supplies . We did have a draw broke in our room in the built in dresser . Nice staff!"
