The staff was sooo friendly and for being a little bit older seeming it was very clean. The walk to town, can’t beat the closeness, it only takes 5 minutes and you get to walk the cure streets without trying to find parking. And they had the best price point compared to every other hotel around.

The motel was close to everything and the staff were welcoming and helpful. One of our rooms needed a little rust repair and pest control but it was a wonderful stay. The beds were very omfortable and the rooms were clean and cool. They just had the carpets cleaned when we arrived. It looks like they take great pride in maintaining the property.

8/10 Very good

Our room was really clean and pretty well kept up, beds were comfortable, and the front desk staff was really helpful. The hotel is 10 minutes easy walking distance from the main street in town, near a grocery store and gas station. Parking was plentiful, which is really important to have in Bar Harbor since parking in town is impossibly crowded. I would recommend this hotel!
