Clean and comfortable. Non lumpy beds and enough pillows! Short rides to good places to eat and sites to see. Only problem- I didn't know how the self check in worked. I didn't know to check my email for directions. Figured it out when I called the number on the outside of the airbnb then I saw that I had a message. The person who called me back was very nice. Definitely would stay there again

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.

Great place to stay close to Sunday river, and a 30 second walk to the 1888 barn venue next door. The room was clean and actually had antibacterial hand soap in the bathroom that no hotel ever has for some reason. Great water pressure in the shower as well as heat. The owners were present and friendly. I will be staying here again
