Five stars for this budget-friendly motel in an ideal location in busy Bar Harbor! We stayed four nights while cycling through Acadia National Park. It was a short ride to the park and an even shorter walk to the bars and restaurants in BH. Natalle and Susie in the office were wonderful and made sure that there was always hot coffee available. Our rooms were spotless.

Odor

The hotel was generally just ok. Most disturbing was the strange odor in the stairwell leading to my room. Also no screens on the windows meant no fresh air.

Basic Room

Great location and great service, but room was not what I would expect for $300 a night. Very small bathroom, paper thin walls, uncomfortable pillows, no coffee machine in the room, and no desk or coffee table for me to work on. The maid left a dirty coffee cup between the bed and nightstand from the former occupants. Super nice at the front desk but probably won't stay there again.

Very disappointed for the amount of money we paid. Needs updating. The people above us were loud and the floor creaked badly. Parking was terrible. Lucky to find a space.
