Like one of the previous reviews said, absolutely nothing fancy. The rooms are very outdated, and it took a long time for the room to heat up. EVERY SINGLE light fixture buzzed when on, which drove me up the wall, and this happened on two separate stays in two different room. It was nice to have a restaurant in the... More

The staff was amazing, very friendly and helpful. You are not going to find much in this area. I was told the International down the street was better. My room was out dated, COLD!! Even though input the thermostat up. I had fruit flies hanging out around my bathroom sink !! this isn't the Hilton but the rooms could use... More

We only chose this hotel because there were no other options in Calais. The room was old. The bathroom was straight out of a horror film complete with flickering lights. The hallway reeked of marijuana. Two of us saw something scurrying across the floor and into a hole the wall. Skip the continental breakfast and go to the dunkin donuts... More

Staid here for a business trip and will never go back! The room I got hadn't been cleaned since the previous occupants left. The 'do not disturb' sign was still on the door, there was half a pizza in the fridge, and dirty sheets on one of the beds. I later found the receipt for the pizza and it was... More

POOL AND JACUZZI CLOSED. And they don't tell you that when you book. Also, they had no seniors rate. 8-P For what you get it is OVERPRICED. I stayed in better rooms in INDIA. The walls are thick cement and NO decor. Rugs are so dirty...I was concerned about walking on them. More

This motel is about 10 minutes from the Canada border,and having crossed the border after about 9 hours of driving, we needed a quick and affordable room and were taken in by the "Olympic Sized Pool" sign, although it turned out to be closed. The price was cheap (You get what you pay for), but we ended up stuck in... More

When we travel we just put up for a night at a time and look for a clean room with reasonable rates.We found that at the Calais motor inn there were four of us and they gave us a large clean room and decent breakfast,all for less then $90.00 tax encluded.You cannot beat that when on a fixed budget.Sometimes they...

I've stayed here several times--this time was a little better--I think there is still an awful cat urine smell in the hallway, but my room wasn't musty like it's been before. Why can't they provide shower heads?? I ate in the restaurant and it was really good--surprised!! Better experience than in the past. Swimming pool still closed--after 5 years???--they told... More

I called and booked a room with 2 queen beds. When we got there, I was told there were no rooms in the hotel with queen beds. And the pool which is advertised has been closed for 3 1/2 years. The restaurant menu had lower prices that what were charged. And the room was small and old. In order to... More

Not pleased, typical cheap hotel room but many guests were loud, drinking, women screaming, kids running around the parking lot and cars squealing out. In the heart of Downtown Calais, very noisy for rural area., bad, busy intersection. Pool was closed. Restaurant buffet was absolutely horrid. Poorly cooked, sat out a long time (tasted like it was reheated in the... More
