Room was enormous, clean and very comfortable. All the staff we dealt with were so friendly - explaining the local area and Acadia National Park. The hotel is so close to everything in Bar Harbor so you can leave the car and just walk around. Super close to Acadia - just a 10 minute drive. Coffee, tea etc. available at the reception, as well as a place to refil water bottles which was appreciated. Would have loved if the rooms had glasses instead of plastic cups though. Would definitely stay again!

Great Location, Friendly Staff

The ONLY thing that bothered me about this stay was the price. At almost $400/night (when fees & taxes were added), it seemed expensive for a room in an older style motel with no frills, no breakfast, & very little amenities. That being said, the rooms were clean & in very good condition. There was only one community microwave to use in the Lobby but there was a fridge in the room. The staff were very friendly, welcoming and informative. When we checked in, they had maps ready to show us the recommended eating & shopping places and how to get there. Parking was free & it was an easy walk to downtown Bar Harbor so it was nice not to have to fight for a parking spot because we could leave our car at the motel. It was also in a good location to slip out & be on our way to Acadia Nat'l Park quickly without fighting traffic. The beds were comfortable & the water was hot. Even though they did not offer breakfast, they did have a coffee bar in the lobby that was available for hot drinks & guests had a code to access the lobby before/after hours. If it had been less expensive, it would have been nice to have had more time to explore Bar Harbor & Acadia Park, but the price of the rooms limited our stay to 2 nights. To be fair, the prices in the area were all a little steep though, and some much higher than what we paid so maybe it was just a matter of demand over supply, but it hurts a common person's budget to pay that much just to have a place to sleep.

All the staff was pleasant, friendly and accommodating to all questions. Rooms were clean with updated style furniture, floorind and furnishes. The porch had nice lounging chairs to sit outside. Our room had a small bathroom (1 person at a time) but it worked for our needs to have a landing spot for the weekend. Easy 10 minute max walk downtown. Plenty of bars or places to eat less than a 10 minutes away. Found it nice to park right in front of your room door and not have o carry everything into a larger hotel. Overall great stay.
