This is a nice hotel that is located near downtown Brunswick. I did not give it 5 stars because our bathroom was so funky. You had to walk ALL the way in before you were able to close the door. It was very awkward. It had fewer room amenities than I expected - no little coffee maker or supplies.

Request a room on the side away from the highway!

Pretty hotel and room was nicely decorated. Bed was very comfortable with nice linens.2 bottles of water and a fridge. The problem was the location of the room at the back of the building, so close to the highway. I'm guessing that the other side of the building - facing the front door- is probably more quiet. We had a terrible night's sleep, the sound of the highway was extremely loud.
