“Spacious and Clean”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed April 27, 2010

I've stayed here several times in the past year, while my daughter was attending UMaine. The price is great, rooms are spotless, and plenty of room. If your looking for luxury, this is not for you, but if you want a quiet, clean room to sleep in this is it.

“A quiet and clean two bedroom apartment with an incredible view”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 27, 2009

My husband, son and I spent two nights over the Thanksgiving holiday in a two bedroom unit on the top floor. The unit was spotlessly clean with a living room, two bedrooms and a nice size full kitchen complete with four burner stove, full size refrigerator, microwave, dishes, utensils, and everything needed to cook full meals. We also had an incredible view of the river which looks more like a lake because of its size. The owners were very friendly and accommodating. Even though the motel is right off Route 2, it was very quiet in general. There is a communal washer and dryer on the first floor. I would recommend this motel to anyone staying in the Bangor/Orono who want all the comforts of home but don't want to pay the inflated chain hotel prices.

“Great Little PLace at a Great Price”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 20, 2008

We called this motel at the last minute as we were escaping a wet campground and loved it! Their two-bedroom suite is like a two bedroom apartment. There is a full stove, microwave and fridge. There were two separate bedrooms and the entry room/kitchenette. There are laundry facilities onsite and it was all just for $120! For three adults and two children, you can't beat it. If you are family on a budget, you could easily stay there for a week and cook your own food to save money on eating out with the full kitchen!

  • Liked — The full kitchen
  • Disliked — A little bit off the highway

“Roomy, clean & friendly”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 15, 2007

This Pet Friendly motel may not be the newest in town but the management is very helpful and friendly. The rooms are completely clean and well equiped. On-sight guest laundry is convenient. The two bedroom suite is spacious and easily feels like home with all of the comforts of home. The view of the river is relaxing. The area is safe and quiet with plenty of room to walk the dogs. Only a few minutes drive to the university, grocery store, shopping and restaurants. A short drive to Bangor and to scenic areas. A great deal for the money! We highly recommend it.

  • Liked — size, price & friendliness of management
  • Disliked — a little out-dated but well-maintained
