The room was clean and in excellent condition. The bathroom fixtures looked new. The breakfast was good. On site restaurant has very limited options for dinner. Staff offered suggestions for restaurants in town which worked out well.
-
The cleanliness and the staff. The location between an interstate and a mall parking lot had all the charm of housing project. The room was small and stuffy with the drone of the I-95 in the background.

Comfortable bed, very clean room, good breakfast. Delay at check-in

Overall a very nice motel with cool art throughout and a good bar/restaurant. Every staff member I interacted with was helpful and friendly. I would definitely recommend it.

Great set up with the wine bar, lobby is warm and gives you that Maine Feel. The opportunity to buy local art work that's on display is a unique way of making the stay even more inviting.

We had just stayed at over a dozen hotels & Inns while doing a big Nova Scotia loop back to Ohio and even though a few chain hotels were their usual consistent quality this one was truly an unusual stand-out. There’s no need to leave the hotel because the bar, restaurant, entertainment and breakfast were all perfect! We even found ourselves taking many photos of artwork, cool furniture and decor. We’ll definately go out of our way while back in Maine to stay here again.

Clean room and very nice lobby area. Breakfast buffet was very good. Didn’t get to hang out in the evening but the bar looks very nice as well.
-

Never had breakfast . It was too late foe us as we had miles to travel 7 is too late Late breakfast
-
Nice setup with the seating in the eating areas. Bed was quite comfy. Location was perfect for our stay to break up a long trip home. The people were wonderfully attentive and helpful. The breakfast was quite good for a buffet. Good offerings. I found it interesting that we needed to walk outside to get to our rooms. Not a problem as it wasn’t too cold for us. Some people may not like the outdoor entrance in the winter.

It is a lovely boutique-type hotel, very clean and comfortable. It has a lovely, inviting bar area that serves a selection of food. The original artwork throughout was a wonderful, personalized touch. I did not realize it was more of a motel type set up, with doors to the outside, then a hotel which, for the money, was a little disappointing. Still, overall it was lovely.
