Nous ne pouvions demander mieux
Pros:

Très bon rapport qualité/prix. Café dans la chambre et aussi au front desk. Lits assez confortables. nous avions la chambre près de la route et c'était tout de même bien insonorisé. bonne climatisation, frigo avec congélateur, machine à glace à l'extérieur, très pratique pur les breuvages qu'on apporte à la plage. Bonne chance pour trouver un bon restaurant. Nous avons acheter la nourriture préparée de l'épicerie à proximité et avons mangé aux tables à picnic près de la piscine extérieure. Motel extrêmement bien géré, il ne manque rien. Propriétaire sympathique qui veut vraiment vous satisfaire.

Cons:

Aucune corbeille de recyclage dans la chambre, ni casiment nulle part ailleurs à Saco de toute façon. Cette ville a une grosse décennie de retard en ce qui concerne è recyclage.

One of the Best Stays We've Had!
Pros:

We’ve stayed at many places over the years, and Saco Motel is by far one of the best. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made our stay feel comfortable from the start. The location is super convenient—close to everything we needed, yet still quiet and peaceful.

The rooms were spotless, and the beds were exceptionally comfortable, making it easy to relax and get a good night’s sleep. It’s clear that the property is well cared for. On top of all that, it’s a great value for the quality you receive.

Highly recommend Saco Motel if you're looking for a clean, quiet, and comfortable stay in Saco, Maine!

Pros:

Comfortable bed, clean, no bedbugs, good price.

Cons:

It was really noisy after I went to bed, but after I got up I saw that a lot of people had checked in, so not their fault.

The Savo Motel is a nice little family-owned lodging that offered a basic room that was comfortable,
Pros:

The staff was friendly. The location was convenient to the places I needed to visit.

Cons:

At check in, the staff offered a casual breakfast with pastries but when I checked out at 7:00 am the office was still locked.
