When we arrived the maid was sitting on the bed watching tv. The room was not clean. My feet were black from the few times I walked across the carpet. 

 I turned my bedding down there was hair on my sheets who knew if they were clean... 

When the room was booked the night rate that was charged was 100+ more than posted rates in the room. When asked about the rate difference they said we were liars and was charged correctly. 
The manager refused to give the owners information. 
I would not recommend this Motel to anyone!

Dirty, dirty, dirty

I booked two nights at this motel.  The reviews online and the pictures assured me the motel was a good choice.  There were four adults in our party.  Upon arrival (2:30 pm) we found no one at the front desk and all lights were off.  The sign on the door said check in was 3:00 pm so we sat outside and waiting until someone showed up.  At 3:00 pm the front desk receptionist (also the owner) came from across the street and helped us check in.  We were given room 6.  This room had a king bed in one room and a queen in the second room.  There was one bathroom accessed through the king room.  This room was in poor repair.  The tiles in the bathroom were in bad shape the walls were in need of repair, and the mattresses sagged considerably.  These issues were overlooked by us as we were trying to stay positive.  However the morning of the second day found us to be without water; of any kind.  There was no way to take a shower, we could not brush our teeth and worse we could not use the toilet.  I went to the front desk to get help and nobody answered the door even though the owner lived on site.  They did not answer the phone either.  After over two hours of trying to figure out a solution, two people showed up to load their van.  I asked if they were here with the owner.  They said they worked there and the receptionist would be in shortly.  The door sign said the office was open 8 am until 6 pm.  I explained the situation and they shrugged their shoulders and said to talk to the receptionist.  I waited until 8:15 am before dropping the key in the slot and loading our car and leaving because the receptionist never showed up.  I called the owner at 1:49 pm and she told me that she had a shower that morning.  I explained to her that several of those spending the second night had left for other accommodations.  She already knew that and told me to send her an email explaining all this and she would refund the second night (that was all we were asking).  I emailed and called and emailed again and she did not refund the amount.  

In my opinion, this motel competes for the worst place I have ever stayed.  The owners do not act like they care about their customers.  They are out chatting with others across the street instead of helping customers.  There is no ice in the ice chest in the front lobby.  There is no access to them after hours.  I had a frustrating experience.  I cannot, in good conscience recommend this motel even if it is the last place in Bar Harbor Maine with availability.

Extremely poor choice in accommodations

Beware!!! this Motel run by the most deceitful staff will charge your card at time of booking. They will promise to credit your card but never will. They will not respond to text or phone calls. Have alerted my credit card co. To go after this unscrupulous merchant. Their website claims you won't be charged unless it is after the 7 day period.  This Motel is not a member of the Bar Harbor Chamber of Commerce. Don't even consider this corrupt business no matter how tempting the cheap rate. They don't merit even 1 Star.

The Worst Experience

The room smelled musty i called robbins hotell across the way and asked for a bathroom plug for the tub the lady was rude about it beds were hard as a rock and u only get only pillow floor stunk bad the sink plug broke

Affull

We recently stayed at the Acadia Pines Motel and had a terrible experience. I booked over the phone and paid for the first night ahead of time. When we arrived to check in at 8:00pm, there was no one in the office.  I pushed the white button (which looked to be on a router), but no one came. No one came to check us in until I called the phone number several times. When we got to our room, the windows were all open and the room smelled strongly of ammonia. We soon realized this was to cover up the mildew smell. The ceiling was stained black with mold and mildew in the main living area. We stayed for a total of three nights since no other places had vacancy on short notice. Each morning, we would wake up and the floor was damp. The bathroom floor was always wet. The room was never cleaned while we stayed there. We were unable to ever resolve any issues as there was never anyone available in the office. Then to top it all off, we were given a rate of $174 including tax and fees, but when I received my credit card statement, we were charged $250 a night instead. I was never able to get the staff of Acadia Pines to return a call or provide me with a receipt detailing why I was charged more than the rate that I had signed for. This motel is the worst I've ever stayed in. The cleanliness and service don't warrant the exorbitant price. Avoid this place at all costs!

Disgusting accommodations and terrible service

We made a reservation to stay for two nights starting Oct. 16 2021. Just two hours after we finalized the reservation, my Covid test came out positive. We contacted the motel, kindly asking for a refund. Not only they refused, they were completely silent to my inquiries after that. I wrote them at least three emails. No response. They must be glad they made a little bit of easy money out of an unforseen health problem.

No refunds for Covid

Acadia Pines was very clean and the room was in good repair.  For the price we paid, we did not expect extra amenities.  The room was very small (we stayed in the lowest priced room) but adequate.  It even had a refrigerator and microwave.  It was conveniently located close to Bar Harbor.

Excellent for the price paid

We recently stayed at Acadia Pines Motel.  This is a 1* hotel at best, with a 3* price.  The office staff were not present on arrival and an earlier phone call was not answered.  After pushing a white (dirty gray) button on a remote receiver the office staff arrived.  The woman was brusque and acted as though we interrupted her.  She gave us a key and told us the wireless password.  The room is old and dated from the carpet to the bathroom.  It took a while for the water to run hot.  The towels are thin and worn.  The beds are old, uncomfortable and squeaky. The towel rack fell off the wall in the bathroom.  The dead bolt is a thin bar that was hard to slide into the end.  It didn’t make us feel safe.  We stayed in a room with a kitchenette to prepare breakfast.  The microwave and refrigerator and toaster all worked, though there were only two receptacles.  We never used the TV or outdoor amenities.  The room was generally quiet.  You only heard a bit of street noise and the people next door when they left early one morning.  A redeeming factor is its close proximity (2 miles) from the Acadia National Park Hulls Cove entrance.  I was swayed by the positive reviews and wonder if those reviewers stayed at the same place.

Outrageous price for a old worn room

Once we got to our room it smelled musty, cobwebs on the lamps and the small refrigerator was very loud, had to unplug it to listen to the television and sleep.
Reported problems to the staff and was told that they could do nothing about it until tomorrow. That was unsatisfactory since we were only staying for one night.

Good location to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park.

Good - Location close to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. Found great price when I booked. Service personnel were very friendly and provided daily service despite Covid. Room clean and comfortable. Bathtub/shower with good hot water. Good heat/AC. Room was quiet. WiFi was fine even near the end of the motel. Coffee machine with coffee, fridge, and microwave.

Disliked · Just little annoyances. No sink stopper. A bit of peeling paint on sink top. Heat difficult to control with thermostat (but plentiful). Carpet was a bit old and worn.
