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.

I had a wonderful stay at the Anchorage Motel in Bar Harbor. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming, making me feel right at home from the moment I arrived. The location is convenient, the room was clean and comfortable, and the hospitality really stood out. I’d be happy to stay here again on my next visit.

Overall, it was a great choice. The location was excellent, and the staff were warm and reliable. Everything was within walking distance. The only small downside was that I couldn’t find any body wash.

The Anchorage motel was great for us. It’s a very basic accommodation- but, very walkable with a lot of good restaurants around. The staff were friendly and it was clean.
