While on the surface it appears to be "just another motel" ... it has been renovated very well and the rooms are quite.well appointed, clean, and not the musty motel experience one might fear. New showers/renovated bathrooms, new floors, comfortable beds ... all in all a place i am actually favoriting for the next time i am in the area.

Convenient to shopping malls and Colby college, but very noisy from the highway. Putting coffee makers in the rooms and not so thin towels would be helpful.

We stayed recently and thought it was odd to have the sink outside the bathroom and no tub ! Happily, we were accommodated for our heater to go wrong (cold room) but they surely accommodated us immediately. Over all clean and friendly nice staff

Sub-par breakfast, but modern room

Aside from breakfast offerings and being hard to pull out of parking lot due to traffic it was terrific. Comfy beds, high end shampoo and soap provided which surprised me a little and overall nice modern room. The breakfast wasn’t really a good one they just had mini cereal boxes and packets of oatmeal which you still have to make yourself, if you like coffee hey had a lot of it
