Great location, safe, clean, plentiful parking, good (free) coffee, helpful and friendly staff. Tip: get room on 2nd floor if you want some quiet as the floors above are pretty thin and you can hear and feel every footstep from above.

Carpet not laminate

The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Our room was clean, but we thought there was hardwood or laminate flooring in all the rooms but there was carpet. The pictures on the website are misleading.

This was our last night in Bar Harbor. The Anchorage was convenient in parking the car and making a quick exit the next morning. And also still walkable to restaurants, etc.

This is a motel, not a hotel. It’s a 50s era motor court. That being said, location is fantastic. Short walk to downtown Bar Harbor and a few minutes drive to Acadia. The parking is good and the staff are friendly and helpful. But…the rooms are tired, beds need replacing, ROKU TV is inconvenient and the bathroom is small and outdated. Way way overpriced for an aging motel.

The motel overall is good. The cleaning staff missed a whole day and never replaced the toilet paper, we had to go ask for rolls. This is a very basic room, but it is clean. No bells and whistles at all. It is very convenient to Bar Harbor center and to Acadia National Park. It was way overpriced for what it was.

Overheard staff in reception area complaining that they were ready to be done with the season. While I imagine that is true, as a guest currently paying for their lodging, I wasn’t happy hearing it. Staff should be more aware of what they say in front of guests.

Ended up leaving the next day, room above me woke me up at 4 in the morning, lousy sleep. They would not even think of refunding me for the second night, when they knew they could fill the vacancy with a walk in. Someone made some extra money and left me paying 391.00 for a night I didn’t stay, very disappointed!
