Although the floors may have been vacuumed in the main traffic path they actually need to be washed along with the mop boards. Maybe a once a month rotation of completing this would help.

Room was not well cleaned and musty smelling. Many water stains on the ceiling , furniture in poor condition. It was a last minute unplanned booking so was grateful to have a place to stay for the night as I was too tired to continue last leg of my drive but would not stay there again.

It was very hands off-- you go, retrieve your key from the lock box and let yourself in. But it is a gorgeous old building built like a fancy plantation - castle, in the middle of a small coastal town in pristine Maine, with a pool and a fitness center. I didn't realize it at first, but my room had a hallway to another living room area, with a balcony to sit and watch the sunrise from. Wow! Yeah, it's a great place.

The Trade Winds is an awesome location for visiting the Maine Lobster Festival, as it’s literally across the street. Be aware that being that close does have a disadvantage if you go to sleep early since you can hear the live entertainment from the main stage of the festival. We enjoyed it though since we could open the balcony door and enjoy the music from the comfort of our room. The staff were very kind and helpful. Being able to park our car and walk everywhere was another benefit.

I have always stayed here when visiting family. It’s changed for the worse. It was under construction. The hallway smelled like sewage. Our room was quite far away from elevators. It was a hike down three long hallways and steps. The window didn’t open. The shower almost scalded me then I froze by turning it down al little. It used to be free breakfast now you had to buy coffee and horrible muffins. Will be going elsewhere when I visit again.

Building code prohibits this in many places...

Friendly staff, unfortunate accommodations: I was placed in a room with no outdoor windows. This should be a closet, not a room! A shame to visit such a beautiful town and stay in such a depressing space, just for the sake of profit maximization.
