Walkable location for Bar Harbor vacation
Pros:

Great location. We could easily walk into downtown Bar Harbor. Clean and comfortable room. Coffee always available by the front desk along with water, fruit and granola bars.

Cons:

We weren't told at check in that we needed to request housekeeping to tidy up the room. We followed the instructions in the room that said we should put out the door hanger to request housekeeping. So after two days of no new towels and full trash cans, I went to the front desk. They were very apologetic and told me housekeeping doesn't check the door hangers because they blow away in the wind. They did send housekeeping right away and everything was good after that.

Bar Harbor is a fun town with Acadia National Park.. Hotel was close enough to town to walk.
Pros:

Very quiet and comfortable room and bed. They don't advertise a breakfast but have 24 hour coffee/tea service and "Grab and Go" snacks and water available all day. Pastires and muffins and instant oatmeal in the mornings.

Cons:

The tile flooring was very cold to walk on.

Bar Harbor is beautiful!!! I would stay here again
Pros:

The property was conveniently located, just a short distance to Acadia National Park and down town. Didnt really have interactions with staff but received a warm welcome at check in. The little ‘patio’ was a plus for sitting outside of room.

Cons:

The location was at an intersection and was a bit noisy, otherwise I have no complaints.

Pros:

Das Personal war sehr freundlich, aufmerksam, aufgestellt und hilfsbereit.
Der Herr (leider wissen wir keinen Namen, aber er ist seit 15 Jahren in Bar Harbor) wusste am 2. Tag sogar noch unsere Zimmernummer.🤩
Die Lage ist top. Das Zentrum in gut 10 Minuten zu Fuss bei einem schönen Spaziergang erreichbar.

Cons:

Es war alles in Ordnung 👍

Perfecte lokatie & goede prijs-kwaliteit verhouding
Pros:

Super lokatie, gratis parkeren & op comfortabele loopafstand van het centrum. Het grab & go ontbijt was was inbegrepen (ondanks dat hierover niks werd vermeld in de Booking app).

Housekeeping maakte elke dag de kamer geweldig netjes & het personeel was zonder uitzondering ontzettend behulpzaam.

Cons:

Het was een beetje gehorig, maar ik heb me hier niet aan gestoord.
