I was at this motel for one night while vising Acadia National Park. It was clean, but felt very dark and dingy. We arrived quite late, and a light in the room was not working. We left very early to catch sunrise at Acadia, but the gentleman at the front desk was nice enough to let us know that we... More

Although the motel was clean, well furnished and with excellent room service...we were greatly bothered by the unleashed pit bull that one of the tenants owned which twice tried to attack our leashed Corgi....and on the second incident got halfway into our car. It appeared that the guests were friends of the management who did not appear to be concerned... More

It's nothing special and the room did smell a bit musty but it was fine. The wifi worked and there were chairs outside the room so you could sit there and surf away. It was clean and very basic but really cheap. We got a discount for staying two nights. It's about a 25 minute drive to Bar Harbor and... More

Humble establishment has charm and exceeded our expectations for a motel. More efficient and friendlier service than most places I've stayed. The people with negative reviews probably have issues with their expectations.

Our expectations were modest but this motel and its excellent staff far exceeded our expectations. The rooms were large and clean with a fridge, microwave coffee machine etc., etc. We were 18 miles from Bar Harbor in Ellsworth which was excellent for shopping etc. We will definitely stay here again. The continental breakafast is nothing special but the coffee was... More

I have stayed at a couple of Knights Inn properties from TN to Florida. My prior experiences have been mixed. We booked the Knights Inn Ellsworth/Bar Harbor for a small family reunion. 18 people in multiple rooms. This is an older property so our expectations were not high. Fortunately the management has made improvements. The carpets were new & some... More

Had no problems when I arrived early to the motel on Friday night, they let me check in and I then went to Acadia National Park for a campground. I did get a campground site and then cancelled the next couple of nights I had reserved there. The internet connection was great with a great desk setup with outlets on... More

I did not expect the great service that I got here. As a pilot without a car here, the staff made sure to pick me up at the airport, take me into town several times and actually became my friends. The room was clean and decent sized and again, the level of service was great. For the price it was... More

We stayed here on our East Coast Vacation, and we were going to meet up with our friends later. We stayed there 3 nights. When we arrived around 11:00 we went to the "front desk" to check in and all but, it turns out when we checked in the rooms are clear across the property, a pretty good length car... More

Bathrooms were disgusting. Floor was filthy and had toilet paper stuck to it. Tub looked as though it hadn't been cleaned in years. Carpet was filthy. No restaurant as advertised but wouldn't have ate there anyway.
