Clean, spacious parking, close to a nice little pub/ restaurant. I'd recommend the inn,it supports a small, local business.

The room was ready for us. Very clean! Wifi worked well. A good value for the price! Friendly! This is the 3rd time we've stayed there...twice my sister and I stayed and this time it was my husband and I. Very easy to schedule on line with Expedia and had the option to cancel or rescedule as long as not too close to date of reservation. Thank you!

I have stayed at this motel many times. My biggest complaint has always been the lack of towels. Every time I have to go to the office to ask for more, however it's never a problem getting more. Just inconvenient. This time the room smelled musty and triggered my allergies. The property could use some updating. That's why I gave it 3 out of 5.

Don’t waste your money! If you must stay away from room 17 which is on the other side of the staffs smoking area. It smells absolutely disgusting. After hours of candles, a fan and windows open I finally went and asked to be moved. The women at the front desk acted completely annoyed. She finally told me they smoke on the other side of this room. Such a waste of money.

They accommodated my late arrival. Flight was delayed and wouldn’t have made it in time for check in. Room was spacious and clean. Really quiet as well. When we come back we will stay here again.

Yes the room was clean and the staff was nice. The two things that I would comment on is the flush was broken and it was very very hot and no way to turn it down or control it in anyway.

The room was big. 2 queen beds, floor looks new, probably vInyl. No rugs to keep from slipping when floor is wet. Plus I’m 5’1” and had to climb into bed. Otherwise just the 2 negative things take it down to average. Beds comfy. It worked ok.

This was a nice older motel that is being fixed up. Our room was clean with comfortable beds. There was some nice new furniture but some unfinished area so maybe still being renovated. Overall a good one night stop. A great place for breakfast not to far by car is Gather. Great coffee and breakfast.

It was beautifully maintained? My room was in the design of an old Maine Camp, it was really well done. The beds were comfortable and there was a microwave, refrigerator and even a little breakfast nook. A great place to stay

I didn’t get to stay there (yet) because I was held up in my light aircraft by weather and couldn’t get into Lincoln. Under the contract I forfeited my lodging fee, but they called me and offered to switch it to next time I came into town at no charge. It was an amazing act of generosity and hospitality. I am a fan for life.
