I really wanted to like this place as it's very convenient but it just was okay. The room was not clean, sheets and towels were stained. The heat was not great, the hotel just felt tired. Nice to have good wifi and hot water. The highlight was the staff, super friendly and helpful. You could not ask for better staff.

The front desk staff was super nice. Room was clean. Bed was comfortable. Shower was hot. But the room was quite cold and the heater had a max of 78 degrees, but it was much colder than that.

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.

Staff was nice, the room was fine but the towels are terrible. One “bath” towel and everything else was small. They did have a room for my son and his dog which was great.

This is a former motel that has been renovated to resemble more of today’s boutique style. Room was very nice and clean. Good value. We had a pizze delivered from a place in Watertown, I believe? Really good pizza, I think the front desk recommended.

Great spot to stay near Colby College. Easy in/out and very clean. It’s a motel, but the rooms are updated and modern with comfortable beds. Would stay again.

The property was surprisingly high quality; and the staff was above-and-beyond pleasant, kind and helpful. It was a full night, and parking was a tad tricky but in the end not that bad. Really it's the staff that will have me coming back to this location!
