"Ellsworth staying was surprisingly pleasant and comfortable. I love this hotel's staff because they are all super friendly. The lemon iced water in the lobby, the free ice cream, and the breakfast were all fantastic during our staying. This hotel is located right on a busy street that can take you to Acadia National Park, or other cities in Maine quickly, but the rooms were super quiet and comfortable. Highly recommend this hotel!"

10/10 Excellent
"Exceptionally clean quaint cottage. We loved watching the boats and marine life from both the lower and upper deck. By the pictures and description I was under the impression that it was a little more secluded but it was still very quiet countryside. I would recommend this place to anyone. We really enjoyed all the amenities as well."
