This was a real gem. So glad we lucked into finding it. It was very affordable and we were surprised by all of the amenities in the room. Bonita is an excellent front desk/property manager. If you have any questions or concerns, she is kind and friendly we would definitely stay here again

Our room, including kitchenette, was clean except there was an abundance of fruit flies. No evidence of food anywhere in the room. Appreciated some obvious green upgrades including dual flush toilet, water saver option in shower and heat pump for climate control. Parking lot was very convenient, but small. A spot for each car, but not a lot of maneuvering room. We did not hear much road or guest noise and we did sleep well.

Everything was close by. The Staff was so wonderful. Helped with all my needs. My husband doesn't has a short time on this earth and we haven't been here in 28 years. The price was great and you never run out of water. I would stay here again.

Quiet little place.
This little motel was a very clean quiet place just on the outskirts of Ellsworth, ME. It was very convenient to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. I definitely would recommend this place to beat the price of the chain hotels.

We (married couple, no kids) needed a place to stay overnight while visiting Acadia. It might not be the best place if you want to be closer to Bar Harbor, but for somewhere to just sleep before heading back to the park, it was perfect.

Bed not so comfortable. Room not well insulated for noise. Bathroom sink aerator sends water everywhere. Most rooms not ADA friendly Roku TV was a nice amenity. Otherwise, not bad.

I stayed here at two different times during my trip. It's a no-frills hotel with clean, very functional rooms. If you are looking for a place to crash for a night or two, this is a good choice.
