All the staff was pleasant, friendly and accommodating to all questions. Rooms were clean with updated style furniture, floorind and furnishes. The porch had nice lounging chairs to sit outside. Our room had a small bathroom (1 person at a time) but it worked for our needs to have a landing spot for the weekend. Easy 10 minute max walk downtown. Plenty of bars or places to eat less than a 10 minutes away. Found it nice to park right in front of your room door and not have o carry everything into a larger hotel. Overall great stay.

Great little property located on a quiet street within easy walking distance of all Bar Harbors amenities and can even walk directly into the national park from here. The staff were all exceptional and I would stay here again if coming back to the area.

This is a standard motel property that has been well kept and updated. The double my husband and I shared was modest in size, but ample to accommodate us and our things for three days, with a small fridge, and sitting areas indoor and out. Walkability was important to us—especially since you pay for all parking in town and it is regularly enforced —so being a 10 minute walk to the Harbor and downtown area was great. Front desk staff were very helpful with tips, and office is open by keypad when it is not staffed.
