The room was clean but very dated, the microwave was in the common area and our ac unit only worked partially, it was one of the old big units that you turned the knob. The beds were comfortable and the shower had great pressure and very hot water!

Our stay was good, room was fronting the water excellent view, there was only 1 guy at the front desk and was running around taking care of rooms and guest but he was very helpful. Great location, close to bar harbor and Acadia gateway center. Maybe a little update on the rooms. Overall our stay was pretty good. We will definitely be back in the future.

The location is excellent, there are seafood restaurants nearby and bars. The facility has plenty of parking and has been recently updated. Great view out the door of the water for some peaceful morning cups of coffee. The only issue we had is our unit 112 had a bit of a smell, like it had gotten wet and didn’t get dried properly. We bought a scented candle, cleaned the AC and dehumidifier filters and everything was fine. I would definitely stay here again it was a great three days exploring Acadia
