The Inn on Mount Desert is a unique place with fairly decent size rooms, that are clean, and updated. The staff adds a comfort to the inn as well. Each of the staff members I chatted with were incredibly friendly and helpful, especially the innkeeper, she was a delight to talk to. My wife and I plan on coming back again on our next trip to Bar Harbor.
