Property is in a good location. Rooms are fine. Pool was closed without notice on Expedia and that was a huge disappointment to kids. Call ahead if pool is important to you.

Staff was fantastic, room was clean & comfortable. There was some maintenance and improvement work being done inside & out. Outside had more going on than inside; it limited parking and was a bit noisy. But they are improving the property. Otherwise it was a very nice stay.

The location is unbeatable—right in the center of Camden, just a short stroll to the harbor, shops, and restaurants. Yet, despite being so close to everything, the hotel feels tucked away and peaceful, especially with its lovely garden and outdoor seating areas. Our room was spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully decorated. The heated indoor pool was an unexpected bonus—perfect after a day of exploring! What stood out most was the atmosphere: welcoming, family-friendly, and refreshingly genuine. You can tell the team here takes pride in making guests feel at home. We’ll definitely be returning and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a charming, comfortable, and convenient stay in one of Maine’s most beautiful towns.

Stayed two nights: Cons: Room was dirty and decor was tasteless. Blackout curtains would have been nice on the windows. Bathroom fan was broken. Breakfast options were similar to most gas stations. I expected much, much more considering what we paid. Pros: Hot coffee in the morning and a nice place to sit outside and enjoy. Attractive facade with many well tended flower pots. Bedsheets and towels were clean.

Great location and ample free parking. The staff was very friendly. The downside is the property was in need of a renovation 10 years ago. Bathroom vents don’t work, light bulbs are out, and the carpets look 30 years old. It’s in a picturesque spot and quiet, yet right in the heart of very walkable Camden. It just needs a major refresh.

Next morning person at desk said no one ever smelled it but they would move us. Weird. All in all a great place and great location! No problem with second room.

The best thing about our stay in this hotel with the staff. Very friendly and accommodating. In the lobby, they have little snacks to include s’mores to make in the outside fire pit. Alas, we did not get to experience this because it was raining when we were there. Our room was very spacious, but the bed was not that comfortable. Very stiff. The hotel is very dated and in dire need of a renovation, but very clean. Our room was oddly furnished with a small round table and two conference chairs. It is very conveniently located and we didn’t have any problems finding a parking spot in their lot. We were here two nights.

Upon arrival at the property we were told check out was 10 am by the front desk staff person. She was unfriendly and when I mentioned I thought it was 11 she said no because of quick turnaround it was now 10. Next morning I overheard the same lady respond to another guest when she asked could they have a later checked out , sure we can do 11! We heard rats in the walls during the night, the tv hung crooked on the wall, the bed was hard, the patio door didn’t lock properly, the water didn’t heat up in the shower, terrible service very unfriendly and not worth any money to stay here but especially not the 400 we paid!

Good place to stay, minutes to everything but still off the beaten path. They have a fire on the patio at night to make smores. Room was good. Horrible internet bandwidth though and their TVs are all Roku so you really can't watch anything during peak hours without it constantly buffering. Of course, TV isn't why we came to Camden but if you have kids, it would be a problem.

The location was great, the staff was initially friendly, but then we started having issues. The message light would not stop flashing on the phone. When we inquired, they said they knew it was broken, but couldn’t fix it. The heater was not working. We were told that they had no one to fix it. They suggested we turn on the wall mount fireplace and hoped that would work. It did to some extent, but the ambient light did not promote good sleep. Seemed a little run down.

The property was close to everything. Overall a very nice clean building. It was the human capital that was lacking. We were there for 5 days and never had our room serviced. The Breakfast was broken down 15 minutes early. My daughter asked if she could get some furit that was already placed on the cart, the employee stated that the breakfast was over. They proceeded to pull the rest of the food with an attitude. I guess if you want breakfast, don't show up 15 minutes before closing time. Otherwise, the rooms are old, but clean. Good location.

This employee was honest and noticed she forgot her purse. She ran the purse out to us! Thank you so much for your honest character! Would stay here again no question!
