"Amazing stay. The property is conveniently located near a grocery store (2 minute walk) and downtown is only a few more minutes a walk past that. The room is clean and comfortable. The staff were excellent and offered tips for visiting the area and couldn’t have been more friendly. Also, there’s a grab and go breakfast that’s suitable prep for a day hiking in Acadia. I would definitely stay there again. "
