I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was perfect, right in the center of Bar Harbor with plenty of fab restaurants nearby. The rooms were spacious and had three comfy queen beds, which was ideal for me, my partner, and our two kids. The service was top-notch, with excellent housekeeping and laundry services available. However, the dining options were a bit limited, and the atmosphere felt more like a fast-food joint. Overall, a great value for money stay!
