Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is conveniently located in Kennebunk, providing easy access to the town and surrounding attractions. The rooms had a few issues like road noise and a wet carpet smell but overall offered a decent stay. The service was highlighted by a friendly staff and helpful recommendations. The dining options, while better than competitors, lacked variety in breakfast choices. The facilities were satisfactory, catering to basic needs. The value for money was reasonable, considering its location and service.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were beautifully decorated and the bedding was so comfortable. However, being like a motel, the outside noise from traffic kept me up all night. On the bright side, the room was impeccably clean and fresh.
My stay at the hotel was great - the rooms were spacious, the staff was friendly, and the complimentary breakfast was a nice touch. However, the room size with two beds might feel standard, and the dining could have been better considering the price we paid.
