Old Orchard Beach Parasail

I was forced to get a hotel room at the last minute and I chose this place. While the staff member who checked us in was courteous and friendly, the facilities at the hotel were fair to average, at best. The beds were clean and comfortable and the wi-fi operated perfectly. The hallways had several dehumidifier/air purification machines that were running non-stop. I assumed there was some water damage previously and that's why they were on. The floor in our room appeared "tacky" and I think that was why. The ice machine was out of order, the coffee station normally in the lobby was not present upon check in, and the grounds appeared to have people hanging out on the sidewalk to all hours of the night. I don't know why they weren't asked to move along but it created an uneasy feeling for my wife and daughter. The write up online said that the facility recently underwent an upgrade but, quite honestly, it looked pretty run down to me.

Location, food options, quiet and safe

The decor and private garden were nice, as was the self-service pantry on the 2nd floor. The destination fee was a little annoying on top of the proxy room rate, as the credit for the bar was not useful for one member of our party who does not drink. Very convenient to Old Port.
