The hotel has a good view and quiet.
on Expedia site, it said that this hotel is 5-6 minutes walk to the Acadia Park, but the truth is that it takes 10- 15 minutes to drive to the Park.
In addition, the hotel has charged $65 more than the original online booking.
The room was clean, which is the only positive, although there was a pervasive musty smell. The rooms and some of the furnishings are very old and decrepit. My son forgot a stuffed animal that has a lot of sentimental value in our room. No doubt the cleaning staff would have found it, but it was not turned in and the hotel did not respond to my follow up calls. In retrospect I would have much rather slept in my car.
Nothing special about this property, except the view of the lake if you had a waterfront room which we did not

The hotel was very expensive for the condition of the room and hotel. It was very musty and had a damp smell inside. The worker/manager was a hard worker and helpful though.

Disliked: Amenities
The hotel is clean but no amenities. There is nothing in the immediate surrounding area and if you plan on spending most of your time in acadia or bar harbor the location is a bit inconvenient. Bar harbor is 15 to 20 min drive and parking dowtown is busy. The rideshare apps dont run in the area and the cab services are limited and expensive.
We left our stuff in the car looked in the room found bed bugs talking to the manager he said that we would not be charged anything because we were not staying he even signed a paper from there found out they changed us even though we didn't stay there so they lie have bed bugs and are liar's never again would stay in our car first
