Maria, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

honestly, the room was really nice. Everything was great just was a lot smaller than I expected.
Kaitlyn, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Room was clean and large. Comfy bed. Very minimalist kind of room. Easy access off of 95, and couldn’t hear highway noise! Breakfast was lacking…never brewed a fresh pot of decaf coffee! They had homemade jam for English muffins.
Kim, 1-night trip

Dog friendly, which was a first for us. Not super cheap for essentialy a motel, but ample for what we needed overnight in Maine.

The bed in our room was a little uncomfortable due to be broken in quite a bit but no complaints . The woman who checked us in was extremely pleasant we checked in on 7/26 at 3 pm thank you

We would stay here again

This hotel looks a typical motel from the outside but has been fully renovated inside. The room was clean and comfortable. The art was colorful and the furnishings were modern. The beds were great and the sink area was right inside the room. The shower and toilet area had its own door. There was a fridge but no coffee maker or cups in the room. It was perfect for an overnight stop on our way to another destination. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast had a lot of options to choose from and a nice space to eat. There’s a great restaurant named the Proper Pig not far away. We would stay here again.

Upgraded rooms in a traditional 2 story motel

This hotel has been entirely renovated, very modern, cool wallpaper, innovative plumbing fixtures, lots of outlets for electronics. But it still has the basic 1960’s Motel architecture on two floor, so half the guests have to walk up the 16 steps to the second floor. Breakfast is continental, basically, cold cereal.
Linda, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Nice new renovation

Very well done renovations. Couple of rusty spots on metal furnishing. Linens were very old and thin. Some stains and a hole. Bathroom linens were very old and thread bare as well. If you’re looking for a one night stop it’s perfect.
Ross, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Much better on the inside than the outside. It looks a bit run down on the outside, but the rooms were clean and comfortable and had modern conveniences. Bathroom was very small but clean and bed was comfortable. Breakfast was all carbs, but there was a lot of choices like cereal, oatmeal, breakfast bars and yogurt. Employees were very welcoming and kind. It was an enjoyable stay.
Valerie, 1-night trip
