UGH. The front desk manager was on the phone when I walked in to check-in, held her finger up to me and mouthed "Hold on" and walked out of the lobby to get another employee who came in to get all the information from me. We had room 116: the key card unlocked the door but you could have opened... More

I am sorry you did not enjoy your stay. If you ever have a problem with a room in any motel you need only to go the front desk and you would gladly be given another room. As for the desk clerk who was on the phone with our computer tech. support I am happy she acknowledged you and promptly... More

At first sight this is off putting, sited on a one way system and difficult to reach from the Acadia direction. Didn't seem any too clean at first, and our parking spot was occupied by a massive pickup. However... service we found pretty good once we 'broke the ice' (though it won't win any prizes in 'Best America') Kenny's over... More

Do not stay here. Horrid smell and very unsafe. Read all the reviews and consider with the number of reviews that tell you how bad this hotel is , there are only a few that say its ok. I will bet you that it is staff going on here putting those reviews. Save your self and your family from this... More

I was really wary of this hotel after reading other review,but it was fine. Better then some of the others we stayed in on this trip. We had a ground floor ,to easily take our luggage in to the room. The desk clerk was very friendly and cheerful. She offered help for finding food late in the evening. The room... More

This motel is not great but not the worst we have stayed in either. It does have a funky smell in the hallway, but the room was clean and everything worked. Yes the tub and sink were green; some people actually pay money for the “retro” look so it didn’t bother me. The spa that one of the other users... More
