Nice little spot. Well kept.
Quiet and comfortable. The restaurant had good service and good food. We found the hotel rate was $20 cheaper than the rate we paid on Hotels.com. The clerk at the desk upgraded us slightly because of this and put us in one of the rooms at the very front.

Great views but dated motel
Let me start with positives. Great location if visiting Cabot trail. Makes for a good base. Also fantastic views of the water front and exceptional and friendly réception and service. Now to the negatives. Room is very dated. Musty smell, carpet is dirty. Water spills to bathroom during shower creating a puddle near toilet seat area. Shower curtain was dirty and doesn’t seem to have been changed in forever. Same with the furniture, lamps, blankets, AC etc. The rooms need a full overhaul. The room was as basic as it gets. Wouldn't recommend.
