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.

The property was in a great location, about a 5 minute walk to shops and restaurants. The only thing is we came back late one night from dinner and had no parking as spots in front of office were reserved but the staff assisted us and created a spot next to the steps.

Location, Location, Location. Loved the fact that you had a 5-minute walk to shuttles and downtown Bar Harbor. The accommodations are basic, a bed, TV and a shower. But, if you're like me, you are rarely there only to sleep, and there is so much to do outdoors. Room was clean and staff was very friendly

This was a great option! Centrally located, and walkable to everything that Bar Harbor has to offer a quick car ride to Acadia Park, CLEAN, with a great staff. The only issue we had was that there were not blackout curtains, and there was a very bright street light shining directly into the window, lighting everything up And making it a bit difficult to sleep. Not the end of the world for sure.
