Loved this great motel! Close to everything in Bar Harbor, plenty of parking around the motel, coffee available every morning, and everything was very clean and well kept. Would definitely stay here again if I came back to Bar Harbor.
It was humid and musty in the rooms. I don’t believe their systems can deal with the outside humidity there. Otherwise nice staff and location. Free water, coffee, snacks in the lobby are a plus
Young lady in the office was very pleasant and helpful. Office has a waterbottle filler. Coffee water and snacks all the time.
We truly enjoyed our stay.
The room was clean and sufficient but not as nice as the pictures showed online. It is what to expect from a motel but a bit pricey.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Our only complaint was that the room felt wet. No fan in the bathroom and even with an AC unit, it felt humid in there all the time. Not sure we would stay again.
We really enjoyed our stay at Main Street Motel. The grab-and-go snacks and breakfast options were a fantastic addition! It was also really nice to have a refrigerator and microwave in the room. The decor and furnishings were updated and felt very fresh. Thank you for a great experience!
Bed was comfortable & room was clean. Location was perfect with an easy walk to the shore, restaurants, shopping and marginal way.
I would have liked some additional washcloths but I was able to get some additional once I asked. Coffee was good and the snacks were a perfect grab and go
