The room was spotless, and while showing some wear, so were the facilities. Better yet, there was signs everywhere of updating! My only disappointment was that I had indicated that I needed disabled access when I booked the room. The manager expressed their dismay, but since they were fully booked, there was nothing that they could do. Is there anything you can do with your site to pass such information along?

We havent been to the Towne Motel for a few years. It's been renovated, new mattresses and a brand new pool house/lounge. Pool was nice and clean, as was everything else. Staff were super friendly.

Everything about our stay was excellent! Room was clean. Beds were very comfortable and the blankets were warm and soft. Continental breakfast was great. It snowed a half a foot during our stay and the parking lot was clear in no time. The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. Rates were very fair and affordable. This is by far the best place to stay in Skowhegan. Mark - McKinney, Texas

Very clean and well maintained. Comfortable furnishings. This was one of the most well maintained properties that we stayed in. There is a newer addition at the back of the property but we stayed in the older section and highly rate this motel!! We would Definitely come again.... we're not related ;) and this is an honest review.

Being on 2nd floor is the pits dark and dreary and lack of good lighting. TV so small that even with glasses difficult to see. All could be improved with new lighting, larger Tv , new bed covers and perhaps a couple of scatter rugs on the floor. Stayed here before on 1st floor several years ago which at the time was much better. Not sure I’ll book again Judy Harris.

A throwback small hotel that is in pretty good shape. Large room, comfy bed, and staff was very helpful, knowledgeable, and efficient. However, other guests were loud, and the walls were (as with older hotels) thin. Combined with the fact you could hear doors closing several rooms away, made for a long night.

Motel is in a great spot, rooms were immaculate and had everything we needed. Nicole was great - she checked us in and had put salt out in front of the door (it was snowing) and turned on the lights and heat before we arrived so we would be comfortable and welcomed. Incredibly friendly staff, breakfast and coffee was great. Would definitely recommend.

I love this motel! This was my second time here and I'll be back. The people are kind and caring, my room was immaculate and even though it's on a busy highway, I do not hear the traffic from my room at all. It's half a mile from the center of town, an easy walk. The Skowhegan Fairgrounds is (are?) just half a mile in the other direction. I just cross the road and walk through the neighborhood to go downtown . There's lots of beautiful walking and there are many options for a good meal. Don't miss The Miller's Table.

Best towels I've seen at motels ever! Liked soap & shampoo dispensers in shower. Good continental breakfast.
