Didn't like the broken toilet handle or the staff smoking beside our sliding door. Very convenient location to Acadia, staff was friendly and helpful. Room was decently clean.

Clean but this is a few frills establishment. The bathtub was clean but had two different colors of glaze. Clearly old and needed updating and caulking. The front door locked and opened into the hallway but the sliding glass back door, which opened into a parking area, had a broken lock and just a board that fit the track. A little disconcerting. The room was clean and quite spacious and the back door for loading and unloading the car was convenient.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
There was no decaf coffee available for breakfast. There was a good assortment of items available for breakfast on the morning, but a negative was the lack of available table/chairs to sit at to eat breakfast. Also, the locking handle on the sliding glass door was missing a screw that fastened it to the door. Also, door to the room had to be shut hard to make sure that it locked.

Older but updated inn with ample continental bkfst
Older hotel converted over to modern facility/amenities. Huge pool, no hot tub. Would be better if there was a breakfast buffet with hot waffles/pancakes. There was a toaster for bread-type products. But surprising number of things available.

It's an older property. But, I had a room in the 'annex' in back which looked to be newer; room was spacious and clean. I arrived much earlier than the posted 'check in' time but the manger was nice enough to find a room for me without any delays. I didn't use any of the available facilities other than the ice machine so cannot comment on those.
