Very nice place and we would go back.

Right in town, walk to anything. The motel lobby is fully stocked with coffee, snacks, and even umbrellas to borrow.

Cons:

We were there in July with 4 people and our room could get a little humid.

Basic but Cozy, Ideal for Short Stay
Pros:

This location is convenient for walkable access to the Main Street and Square of Bar Harbor. The room was basic and clean - comfortable beds, refrigerator, tv, etc. The bathroom was small and a little outdated but not really a problem for two people and one night stay. I stayed in a room on the base floor, and at around 12am as I was getting ready to sleep, the visitors directly above us could be heard stomping around for almost an hour. You can also hear the pipes when the water is run, and it is quite loud. My check in and check out were quick and easy. I would recommend staying here if you want quick easy access to the town, are in town for a short stay, and not in need of luxury.

Good choice for walking in town and close driving to Acadia
Pros:

Clean with adequate size bedroom and small but adequate bathroom. Comfortable beds. Excellent on-site parking. Excellent location in walking distance to good restaurants and commercial district and close driving distance to Acadia National Park.

A 5 Star Stay!
Pros:

The rooms and facilities were so clean with excellent amenities, like 24/7 free water, snacks and coffee. The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful, and the location was within short walking distance to the heart of Bar Harbor. You get a lot of bang for your buck here, and we loved everything about it.

Bar Harbor Family Trip
Pros:

Very nice hotel at the end of Bar Harbor. Friendly office staff greeted us and offered advice on restaurants and things to do. Breakfast items, coffee, water and snacks were available for free all day and we very appreciated. Comfortable basic rooms, and quiet location made for a nice stay. Only negative were the lumpy bed pillows.

Pros:

The location to downtown was great. Just a short walk to shops & restaurants

Cons:

While the room was clean and comfortable, the sheet that was on our bed was due to be thrown away. Very rough with pilling due to multiple washings. Ended up sleeping on the top sheet that was smoother.

Awesome customer service & location!
Pros:

Location was excellent, close walk to downtown Bar Harbor but enough away from all the traffic & a very quick drive to Acadia National Park. Room was clean and comfortable. The amenities of having coffee, snacks & water available 24-7 was a bonus I hadn’t expected. Staff was exceptional…friendly & helpful. Special thanks to Patricia, Morgan & Janique, glad to see there are still people that care about customer service! I would recommend this place to anyone that wants a great place for home base while visiting Acadia.

4/5 Would recommend
Pros:

Location was awesome. The last lodging located on the good street. Great beds and pillows. Blankets were fluffy. Large rooms. Fridge was super cold 💙💙

Cons:

Slightly overpriced for being non-staffed and without breakfast. Beds stayed damp from humidity & poor airflow. Shower had a constant drip. Stairs could use some maintenance. Housekeeping is pushy even when you have the sign on your door.

Perfect location

Cute motel within walking distance to downtown Bar Harbor. Clean, quiet, off street parking and friendly staff. Good pizza place across the street is a plus! Highly recommend staying there.
