Home to the University of Maine, this riverside town offers a perfect blend of outdoor adventure and college-town charm. Explore the Orono Bog Boardwalk, catch a Black Bears game, or venture to nearby Acadia National Park for breathtaking coastal scenery.
The room was massive, clean and well looked after. The pool was a little small but did the job, there is no longer a hot tub but this is explained by the staff at any opportunity. Breakfast was great buffet where the hot food changed slightly daily but was always plenty of bread, waffles, coffee, tea etc all available including a bowl of fresh fruit. Reception staff were really friendly and the little shop was great with soft drinks and snacks available 24 hours

This was a very comfortable motel. The owner and her staff were very helpful. For a lo cost motel it provided extras such as toiletries and washing up.liquid in the well equipped kitchenette. It also had a launderette which was invaluable. Well placed for touring from and not too far from a couple of small supermarkets and a short drive to a nice bar/restaurants
