Stayed two nights at Anchorage Motel and was very pleased. The hotel was very clean, and the grounds were very well maintained. The towels were some of the nicest I have seen in a hotel. It's a very basic, 50's style motel, but I loved that. Real room keys!! Park at the front door!! And at the front desk, Jamie.... More

Stayed late Sept early Oct. No or minimal ability (you may lose any second) to connect to wifi in the rooms. I changed rooms hoping for better wifi, but it only worked when I stood outside the door. The AC / heater was SO loud I couldn't run it at night or for very long if I was in the... More

With in the next couple days we knew we had to cancel our vacation. I called to cancel and was told it was taken care of. I also canceled other reservations in the... More

The place is defiantly in need of need of a renovation. But wow, what a great location. Only a few minute walk to downtown. We just needed a place to sleep while we spent our days exploring Acadia and bar harbor. I think they only have double beds and the beds are "springy". But the place was clean, front desk... More

I first stayed in this motel 33 years ago and have been back about 10 times since. First the positives. Staff is friendly and the location can't be beat as it is a quick walk to the main street. I can even overlook the fact that they haven't changed beds in a long time and the 60s style wood panel... More

This motel is the worst place I have ever been! Especially, don`t book this hotel via any internet websites such as cheptickets.com, orbitz, etc. When you get your credit card bill, you may get shocked. Yes, Anchorage motel overcharged me and never refunds me the overcharged amounts!!! What they told me was "We can do our business without you", they... More

I've stayed here several times in the last few years. This place is an inexpensive hotel located within walking distance of the Bar Harbor commercial area (a big plus) but there are no extras. This hotel is best for hikers and people on a budget. On the good side, the hotel is clean and the area around the hotel is... More

This is the budget stop in Bar Harbor. Great location but it is definitely not a deal. The brochure says it is a quiet neighborhood, but don't think that means a quiet room. The first floor rooms of this older frame building are like sleeping inside a drum. Every footstep on the second floor will wake you up with booming... More

Besides smelling old and musty, the sheets were soo thin i could see the pattern of my pajamas through them. the ad said they had colonial decor. this really means they have not remodeled since 1962. i would never go back nor...

the Hotel is basic, clean fairly comfomfortable. Location is the biggest drawing factor. I would stay there again. went with my daughter to meet other women and go biking, Brought the bikes to the park for the free Bike Shuttle to Acadia. The trip was a waonderful experience. Walked to dinner that night, for a lobster roll. Fun. Affordable.
