The property was very clean, the location with ocean views spectacular. The property however could use some updating, the decor appeared to be a mish mash of styles from eras gone by. Additionally it seems that the staff was new or in transition lacking in customer service and helpfulness.

Awful front desk employees
Staff was awful. The hotel website and hotels.com say the hotel has a concierge service, but they do not. When I asked if they had one to help give advice on things to do in Bar Harbor and hikes at Acadia I was told rudely they did not know and dont have concierge to help. They also rushed checked me in, didnt explain any of the extra charges, and sent me on my way. Very very unhappy.

Loved it!
Excellent stay on the ocean! Staff were very welcoming, accommodating and kind. I had a lot of trouble sleeping the first night, needed to find a comfy spot in the bed but then night two I slept great! Traveling alone as a woman I felt very safe staying here which was important. Highly recommend

We had asked for an ocean view. We were told we were being upgraded to a suite. Sounded great, but it was not great! It was in a beautiful stone building, but there was a shared dining table, sofa and chair area, also a shared balcony for I think 4 different rooms of people. It did have a beautiful view! Roman shades were not functional on french doors to balcony, as pulls were ripped, so you couldn’t see the view from inside. One of the globes covering one of the 4 bathroom lights was chipped. There were very few places to plug in electronics. It just looked like a building that had been nice maybe 50 years ago… it felt old and tired… I don’t consider shared areas a suite at all!!! Fortunately, the weather was beautiful during our stay and so walking outside to the restaurant wasn’t an issue. The restaurant BTW was very nice! We had drinks, dinner and breakfast there! I was very pleasantly surprised that the pool and the hot tub were still open in mid-September! My other issue was I was told I would get 500 points for each day if I didn’t use housekeeping. I only got it for one night of our stay. Not a huge deal that I only got 1/2 of the promised amount of points, but still left with a poor impression.
