Parking was convenient. Hotel is beautiful and located right in the middle of things. Room was very nice and staff friendly. As others have mentioned there really is no area to eat breakfast so you can sit in the gallery nearby or take it to your room. Still a very pleasant visit. I recommend the small Irish pub across the street for the live music and the brewery next door which has a small menu but excellent food.

Very much enjoyed staying at this property. The one thing about this is they don't have front desk staff at night. We checked in after hours, but it was easy enough. Nice rooms, comfy beds, right in the middle of town. Would stay again for sure. Complitmentary breakfast was delicious, just need a microwave. Will be back

The hotel is small and fits right into the neighborhood with all the buildings close to the street. What this hotel might not have is offered by their sister hotels in the area.

Highlights were view from the balcony and heated floors in the bathroom. Room was a bit dated and large water stains on ceiling and wall under air conditioner, but no cleaning issues.

Another tiny room
The location is great. The room was pretty nice. We never saw anyone at the lobby for check in or out. The restaurant downstairs smelled like old fish…… Clean but tiny room.

There was no one at the desk around the clock. It felt like a third party was running the hotel. I am not sure what I would have done if something happened during the night.
The room was very small. The common outdoor balcony was not very clean.

Clean, quiet, great location.
Excellent location. Quiet room. The digital key did not automatically download when the room was ready. It would have been nice to have access to the room earlier to freshen up after a long drive, but not the end of the world.

Have stayed here several times … always a good experience.
Some suggestions: need better lighting in the bathroom!!! Touch-up peeling wallpaper in bathroom. Small fridge in room would be great.
While I greatly miss the 1st floor suite, will look forward to eating at the restaurant during our next visit.

SPOTLESS!
Only complaint was checking in. No one was at the desk and we were told to walk to the Kennebunkport Inn. It was difficult to get a number. It took me 30 minutes to straighten out. Annoying but not a big deal!

Our bedroom was tiny. Pictures showed larger accommodations. Other larger rooms available at same price but we were given small room. Won’t stay here next time we come back
Front desk person was not friendly
The hallway on our level had an ice refrigerator that appeared to be there temporarily but was in use. Bad

There was no hotel staff onsite which was not communicated until check in. The room was 83 degrees and we could not regulate the heat properly. Again, no on-site staff, Door to balcony did not lock, not ok. Business across the street has live music every weekend until 10p. Not notified at anytime. Unacceptable.
