Really nice hotel! I was a little confused when I first drove onto the University of Maine campus, the outside looks like dorm but the inside is Not a dorm. The staff was really helpful and nice. There is a washer and dryer for guests. The room was spacious and comfortable. Loved the work area, well thought out. Only thing that could be updated is the bath towels could be bigger… I’m not a big person but these barely wrapped around me. I would definitely go back if I was in the area.

Rooms are very nice, comfortable beds, and very clean. Staff was very friendly and responsive. It is located ON the college campus. We were there while school was not in session so it was not terribly busy but I would think it could be busy if the school is in.
