Budget in a good location

Pros: Great location right near Bar Harbor village and the Island Explorer shuttle. Cheap compared with other locations in BH and easy parking. Clean facility and friendly staff.

Cons: Just keep in mind this is a BUDGET motel, so these are not criticisms just more "what to expect." It's an older and dated facility. It's clean but has a slightly musty smell. Bathrooms are small but serviceable.

Pros: It was Columbus Day holiday week and we really wanted to stay in Bar Harbor another night. Bar Harbor Manor suggested them and they were one of the few vacancies in town. We loved being able to stay close to what we went there for.

Cons: It didn't have any amenities other than hot water & coffee available in the main office
