Hotel Ursa is affordable, clean, and comfortable. Those are the essentials for me. It’s an interesting setting being located on campus at Maine State University. Colbe was friendly and welcoming at check in. He was very polite and professional making it clear that this is an outstanding hotel in every way. First-class front desk experience!

The room was very clean and access was easy. There were a few things we did not like however. There was no lighting that was good enough to read by. The accommodations were very spartan... no decor at all. You could see into our room from the street.

The only negative I have about this location is that it was not clear as to what building I needed to go into to sign in and after a long Trip I just wanted to get to my room and relax. All Staff were friendly and very helpful. Gave great restaurant recs and were patient when I needed to change my method of payment. Rooms were clean and comfortable but obviously old dorm Rooms but more than adequate for short stays. Better than a lot of hotels I’ve stayed in! I’d stay here again in a heartbeat!

Such a fun hotel with a dorm room vibe. The staff was so friendly and being able to walk the university campus in the morning to see a beautiful sunrise was an added perk! Clean, comfortable, and a very enjoyable experience.
