Hotel was just what we needed on a trip to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. Located on the edge of town, it was an easy walk to where ever we wanted to go in Bar Harbor, but away from the busiest parts. Easy drive to Acadia.

Pros for this property are its location, free parking, good air conditioning (it was in the upper 80s when we were there in August) free coffee, water and snacks, and nice staff. Cons would be the rooms. We had two double queen rooms, with next to no electric plugs, no door hooks or a desk lamp in one room, things left in the drawers in one bathroom, and the bathrooms just weren’t in great shape. It served its purpose for the 3 days we were there, but at $400 per room, I expected the rooms to look like the website photos. That being said, it was probably better than a lot of other places and you could walk to restaurants and the harbor without ever moving your car.

Cute, quaint motel that offered just what we were looking for during our Bar Harbor/Acadia Park get away. The decor and cleanliness of the motel was top notch! The grab and go goodies, fresh coffee and flavored water was perfect throughout the day. The location of the motel was ideal and within walking distance to many local shops and restaurants. Acadia Park was easily accessible. We would highly recommend this motel for anyone traveling to the area!
