The hotel clerk was excellent and very helpful. He was very attentive to our needs and a pleasure to talk to. Very good location close to downtown and marina's. We attended the Lobsterfeast which was right next to the hotel.

Great location and a pleasurable stay
Lovely location. We had a sea view room for 2 nights overlooking the harbour and breakwater lighthouse. Really friendly staff.
Fairly good price for our room as the Maine coast can be a little pricey.
Just 2 small mentions ... The bed I had was quite creaky and the mattress seemed to be lower on one side. Wasn't too big a deal as I slept reasonably well. Other issue for me was hearing the next rooms A/C switching on and off all night. Being from the UK it's not a noise I am used to!
Would stay again if I ever come this way again

We had a panoramic suite and it was wonderful! Comfy bed, great water pressure and you can see the boats! Amenities are limited after 7 which was a shame but the pool, hot tub and sauna room made up for it! My husband says the work out room is thumbs up also! We would definitely stay again.
