Winter visit. The room was very clean. Had a perfect corner room with 4 windows. Breakfast was very good, also included a little fresh fruit. Nightly baked treats was also thoughtful and enjoyed. Perfect location, close to everything in town and the grocery store is across the street. I highly recommend ...

The rooms were clean and as described! Walkable into town, but also only a 10/15 min drive to Acadia national park, great location! Would definitely come back.
