The room was very nice, well lit, very roomy, and the bed comfortable. Nice. We loved the location and view. Good health food store next door. And, a gas station across the street. For me a shorter person, the bottom step of the stairway was higher than normal and when wet was slippery. So be careful when stepping down.

The property is in a great location for the Sunday River Resort, restaurants near by as well. Quiet and easy process to stay for a short trip on the mountain. Few hairs in the beds, quite sandy in parking lot that tracks into the hard floors, season plays a factor understandably. Overall great stay!

Brand new king sized bed and spacious bunk beds. Clean, cozy, and reasonably quiet. We have stayed here many times and will continue to return. Very responsive management.

Snow Angels

We had absolutely wonderful stay. There was a fresh snowfall the evening we were there and woke up to the most gorgeous scene. We ended up drinking coffee in the hot tub and making snow angels. I can’t thank this place enough.

Drive-up motel entrance so we can go in and out of room close to car and not have steps or lobby to contend with. We could bring our ski gear in easily to room. Very clean, everything we needed, great king mattress, hot water, good heat. You do need earplugs because of the truck traffic that downshift in front of motel, and if you are a light sleeper, it could wake you in the early morning.

This is a nice little motel close to Sunday River. The price is reasonable and the rooms are clean. The walls are a bit thin and you can hear what goes on in the adjacent room. Will likely stay here again mainly due to the price and location.

Check in was super easy. Hotel is just out of town, so it is easy to find places to eat without traveling far. Comfortable night's sleep. You have to deal with a little road noise before falling asleep and as you awake, but nothing too bad. My only complaint was that the hot tub was not hot at all, 65 degrees.

This stay was really enjoyable. We were skiing Sunday River and found this place online. The room was very nicely decorated. There was a bin of garbage that was left from the people who stayed before us but other than that the room was really clean. The staff was really nice and helpful, they don't have an office but rather a phone number that you can call/text and they answer right away. The room was small, although there were two beds, with all of our skiing gear it was a tight fit and couldn't imagine having more than just the two of us staying there but again, for the price it was great! We would definitely stay again and recommend to friends.

Although there were some hiccups with the heating in our unit, staff, specifically Colin, was responsive, attentive, and went above and beyond to ensure that myself and my family were well taken care of. Some of the best customer service we have ever experienced, including waking up early to ensure that the ground was properly salted in winter to ensure safe passage and frequent check-ins to ensure the quality of our experience.

Very average accommodation, not worth the pricetag

Very basic property, effectively a prefab building of a motel form. Accommodation is clean, no interaction with owner/anyone of the property as the room number is text before arriving and door left unlocked. Room was cool upon entering, took a few hours to warm up. Room/bedding smelt musty throughout the stay. Definitely not worth the $ paid, but all properties in the area take advantage of the limited supply of accommodation options around Sunday River; worth at most ~$80/night...
