Good for the Price
Reviewed By ralverdeThis hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. I wasn't expecting perfection given the price, and it wasn't, but it was decent for the price. The room was fairly clean, but it was clear they weren't spending much on maintaining the place. Overall, though, I would stay here again if in the area for some reason. Details: Comparison to others in chain: N/A Internet: 20/5, but slow ping Breakfast: I don't think there was one offered Room: Older, mostly nicely kept up, but in a bit of a cheaper way. Perfectly acceptable, though. Cleanliness: Fairly clean Bed: Older, spring, a bit painful Bedding: Typical non-chain hotel Shower: Like an old camp shower - bad shower head Hard water: Probably not? Hard to tell with that shower HVAC: Wall AC unit/baseboard Location: Fine, I guess? North of town. Noise: Loud if anything is happening in the next room, highway noise Staff: Very friendly Cost/Value: Least expensive of trip

Great location for winter activities
Reviewed By cynDC42I really enjoyed my stay at River View. The resort was very convenient for skiing at Sunday River in the morning, then lunch at the condo followed by a 5-6 mile hike in the afternoon. I did a different hike each day, all within a 15 minute drive. There is a grocery store close by plus several great take away options. There are also great choices for restaurants and brew pubs within a 10 minute drive. This is not a luxury resort, but has everything needed for an enjoyable stay at a terrific location. The resort staff members are very responsive if you do need any help.

Hotel OK, self-service checkin a bit strange
Reviewed By mvbmaThis hotel was clean and neat, plenty of hot water and a huge stack of towels in the bathroom. Beds a bit soft but slept OK. Some highway noise from passing trucks. Could use better illumination in the room for reading. No ice machine on the premises. What was strange is that we never met any hotel staff - there were none. Checkin was as they say self-service. Is this the future of hotels?

Great Golf School Destination!
Reviewed By Guide636060Participated in a two day GP Golf School Program. Instructor Dave was great! Provided skilled instruction in a professionally calm manner; explaining golf feel in non-golf jargon. Course was in great shape, especially the greens. Food was fantastic and staff were pleasant, helpful, and attentive. Facilities were clean and fully functioning. It was a great experience and I would certainly return to play and stay!

A delightfully charming inn with unbeatable location, in the heart of the Historic District overlooking the town commons. The inn offers great rooms, a world famous full breakfast, and warm genuine hospitality, all at sane rates.
Smoke
Reviewed By Scenic543628My husband, mother and I stayed at this Inn in February for a wedding we were attending in the area. As soon as we walked into the building we were hit with the smell of stale cigarette smoke. This odor was also in the rooms and impacted our sleep and overall breathing through the night. I could not get a window open to allow fresh air in and felt as though I was choking all night. The owner was very nice but the smell of smoke was unbearable so we left as soon as we woke up and will never go back.
