Room was awesome. Clean, quiet, comfortable. The only trouble was the billing. I had a receipt from Expedia , but they claimed the pmt hadnt gone through and required me to pay again. Then, they billed two more times. It took a lot of back andcforth to get them to refund excess charges.

It was a little noisy within the building. You could hear the ppl in the rooms talking and a beep (like a microwave beep). The next morning the wasn’t a lot of hot water when taking a shower. However, the room was nice and clean.

I didn’t realize that the hotel was on the campus of the University of Maine, but thought it was a fun experience. What’s even better was that reception/check in is in the old chemistry building that had been used for 100 years and then vacant for 50 years before becoming one of 3 buildings used for a hotel. So much history here! Beautiful campus, friendly staff, clean facilities, spacious rooms (we stayed in the new building), felt safe walking on campus after dark, thoroughly enjoyed our experience and highly recommend! My favorite hotel of the week! Wish we could have stayed there all week, but we traveled too far away to stay in the same hotel every night.
