The staff was eager to assist and friendly. It was a bit of a trek to get to Acadia, but it was doable. The place is also nearby a grocery store, which allowed me to save on meals, thanks to the microwave and refrigerator.

Getting to the National park was easy, however we did see many options along the route that might have been closer. It served its purpose and the staff was friendly. The room needed a bigger trash can, the bathroom window was ajar and we could not close it, and the lighting options in the room were limiting….too bright with the overhead, too dim with just one lamp

For the price, it provided a clean place to sleep with adequate amenities that was located close to many popular destinations such as the national park and bar harbor. The facility does appear run and worn down but was adequate and clean. We did not spend much time at the facility except to sleep and shower. They do not have regular room service which helps them save in cost. Overall, we liked the low cost and having a clean place to stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
This hotel was convenient to spend time in Acadia. The furnishings were very minimal with no framed art at all, no lamp for the bedside, very much in need of painting to clean up the walls. I could hear a man staying in a room adjacent to mine as he snored all night long, so the walls are thin. Fortunately, I had earplugs or I wouldn't have been able to sleep myself. The staff in the office are very friendly and helpful. I was told I should have let them know about the guy and I could have moved.
