At Pamola Motor Lodge, reviews describe an older motel with clean, comfortable beds for many stays but dated interiors and occasional noise, alongside service that ranges from friendly and responsive to hard to reach.
Amenities are sparse, with repeated mentions of no coffee and minimal on‑site services, and reports of the bar/restaurant being closed or inconsistent. The location is convenient for Baxter State Park and Katahdin, but the small town has limited dining choices. Expect a simple, no‑frills stopover if proximity matters more than amenities.

I chose Pamola because they allowed cancellation up to 2 days before our stay which was important because we were hiking Katahdin and possibly had to change plans due to weather. The service was fine. They supplied a microwave and fridge at our request. There was no coffee maker or coffee in the lobby. Very few options for food in the area other than the attached chinese restaurant. The room was clean but very dated. the bathroom door wouldn't close. Beds were comfortable and clean. Loud people partying outside downstairs, very loud air conditioner, and plumbing. If you just need a no frills place to lay your head and can sleep through noise, this place is fine.

This motel is well worn and not been kept up. It’s dark, dingy and marginal accommodation. Traveling solo it was ok but the bathroom is from 1970’s. Capet is tied and coming up In places. Wall paper is coming off the wall. Musty and dark best describes the room I had. Bed was comfortable and clean sheets and towels limited lights plugs. The small fridge and microwave shared one lug while the a/c unit used the other. For $120/night I expect much better. This is a $70 dollar room. Oh and the doors, locks and keys are questionable. (All beat up and bearly functional).

I arrived at about 6 o’clock. The office is already closed, but she did leave a phone number to call which I did and she did call me right back. She left the key in the room for me so I could at least get in the rooms were a little bit of a letdown. They were very dirty musty. The bed is one of those foam mattresses so I basically got no sleep shower had no pressure. When I went to check out in the morning, I left at about 805 and there was still known in the office so I just left my key on the wall. I don’t think I would stay back here again.

I want to start by saying that i have been coming to the Pamola since the 90\'s and i have seen it death spiral since. When we arrived there were "Poperty AUCTION" signs all over the front of the establishment, we went to check in and the office area was abandoned, there was a sign that said to go to the restaurant, which was closed and abandoned also, there was a phone number to call, nobody answered at first and when he did he said he\'d be right there 20 minutes later (96 degree heat) he showed up and told us to pay no attention to the signage, "The property was sold". It breaks my heart to see the state of the Pamola in Millinocket.

No hair dryer. Had to ask for Wi-Fi password as there was no information in the room. No coffee - anywhere, though there is an office, tavern and restaurant on the property. Comfy bed.

The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the carpet looked fairly new. However, one window was cracked and broken and wasn't capable of being locked. The room was extremely outdated and there was much noise in the adjoining room.

This was one of the worst hotels I have ever stayed at. The wallpaper was peeling off, the entire building was dilapidated, and they clearly have not updated anything since the 70's at best. The bathroom fan did not work, there were only a few towels of very poor quality, and no bath mat. The fact that it cost $100+ a night is absurd, they should have paid me to stay here. There was no staff onsite, so no way to get more towels etc. Don't stay here.

For a night stop over while traveling, it was fine. Unit was clean, bed was comfortable, shower was hot. Cost was a lot lower than others nearby. No amenities to speak of, no info provided about wifi.

Very outdated. The bar was attached to the facility, so there was a couple of inebriated folks in the hallway. Would not recommend this place at all!
