Came here for an over night stay for Grandmothers 102nd Birthday!! Quick idea, would like to have a mini stand in the bathroom, to place our clothes on, between the shower and corner of the toilet. An extra blanket in the closet. The curtains are too long for the heater- A/C to blow air into the room properly. We had to tuck the curtains up and hold it with our shoes. We absolutely loved all of the employees- Extremely Friendly and Accommodating to all of our needs. Pleasant breakfast, perfect coffee and variety of quick breakfast items. The room was immaculate. Not a hair or dust in sight! Even the shower and toilet, was very clean!! We will be back!! Thank You!

Really I would give the room 3.5 but that’s not an option and I don’t know that I feel this hotel is earning 4 stars. This for a notable safety concern. There is no safety latch on the door. There is only a deadbolt. There is also no peephole in the door to check if you need to open. If you are a single woman traveling alone like I was, I don’t recommend this hotel for that reason alone.

We had a wonderful experience. The rooms were clean, the staff were friendly and accommodating, check in was quick and hassle free. The hotel is our go to place whenever we visit Maine. Also it was centrally located right off the interstate and easy to find.

You can see the hotel when you get off exit 127 onto Kennedy Memorial Drive. Renovated a few years ago and the rates are reasonable. Near the colleges and not far from Augusta
