Looking at the website you would not expect it to be on the main road into Bar Harbor.
We had a room at the far end on the right on the 2nd floor.
The door was very hard to open. You had to sort of throw you whole body against the door to open it.
The room itself was fine if the rate would have been around $70, but at $115 is was a bit of a dissapointment. It had these kind of shutter windows, so you can not fully close the windows. Which means you hear everything from outside. As it is more of a motel kind of hotel it is very noisy with people walking past the rooms, cars with engines running and the worst was that near the end there is this depot of housekeeping. so at 6.30am you can hear the trucks getting or dropping towels, sheets etc. Very annoyoing.
Earplugs do help
Best part of the room as the shower. Best shower we had on our trip till then. Bathroom itself was a bit shabby. needed some work.
Breakfast was good, about 10 different cereals, bagels, bread, muffins, fresh fruit etc.
bit small breakfast room though. only 6 tables.
All in all the hotel isn't too bad but it is just too expensive. It is quite close to Bar Harbor but you still have to take the car so you can just as well get a motel a bit further away for about $60
And Ocean View?? well we had to try really hard to see the ocean :-)
