Adequate for the night- felt a little humid in the room but centrally located and staff was very friendly and helpful.
It was good for what it was. Not as close as some of the other motels but we could walk to a lot of stuff. The room smelled and looked very clean but the bathroom was rusted and smelt like mildew. The shower stall was starting to peel away from the wall. I think adding an exhaust fan would make a big difference.
Great spot to stay prefect walking distance to town and close to Acadia national park

The staff was really nice and the room was comfortable and clean. Great location in Bar Harbor.
Clean and comfortable. Would have appreciated a microwave and coffee in room, but the coffee at the front desk was exceptional and available every time I sought it. Friendly staff. Great location for exploring Bar Harbor and Acadia NP.

Super nice little motel with good parking and walkable to downtown. Candy and coffee at the front desk. Cleaning ladies did great; cleaned our room every day. I travel a lot and that’s been a rarity since COVID. Susie and all the front desk ladies were great with recommendations and just being super personable. Highly recommend!
Stayed here for 2 nights. Excellent place to stay. The room the spotless and the staff was outstanding. The location was fantastic - 2 blocks to the central plaza of Bar Harbor.
