Convenient spot if visiting UMaine. Rooms are nice yet small. On the down side, there is very limited parking. Felt lucky to find 1 spot. We were put in a room that was in a different building from the check-in. Since there are only 7 parking spots at the building we were sent to, it required a lengthy walk in frigid temperatures and windy conditions. Not ideal.

find somewhere else

The bed felt like a lumpy trampoline, and the sheets were suspiciously thin. The bathroom boasted a shower that dribbled lukewarm water and a toilet that seemed to have a mind of its own. As for the promised 'high-speed Wi-Fi,' it was more like dial-up from the Stone Age.
